*From the Astell&Kern news release

Astell&Kern, the multi-award-winning global audio component pioneer from South Korea, has revealed the SP2000T Copper Nickel, a limited-edition portable digital music player. The high-end device is the first to be built from a solid block of copper-nickel alloy, a material commonly found in traditional brass instruments.

Like its orchestral relatives such as the trumpet, French horn and tuba, the copper nickel in the unique SP2000T delivers a deep and full sound signature, offering a truly authentic listening experience.

Underneath its instrumental body, the SP2000T introduces Astell&Kern’s next generation amp technology, the Triple Amp System. Users can switch between tube amp mode, normal op-amp mode or the new hybrid amp mode to select the best sound output for the type of music you are listening to.

Like Astell&Kern’s flagship A&ultima SP3000, this limited-edition device is a quad-DAC player that also features Replay Gain, enabling the player to maintain a consistent playback level by automatically adjusting the volume between tracks.

The high-performance device comes with a full HD (1920×1080 resolution) touch screen high-resolution display as well as a sleek user interface.
