The new Astell & Kern A&ultima SP3000T combines the profound emotion and lasting essence of analog audio with cutting-edge digital technology. By integrating a real vacuum tube, Astell&Kern has created an authentic analog sound that is complemented by advanced audio features such as TERATON ALPHA, tube current settings, and the hybrid amp design. This unique fusion of analog and digital excellence results in an immersive auditory experience that defies convention, setting the A&ultima SP3000T apart as a truly exceptional portable audio player.
Just like the previous generation of tube-equipped DAPs by Astell&Kern, the SP3000T is not a replacement for the flagship SP3000 DAP Music Player. The SP3000 DAP still remains the top-of-the-line music player from Astell&Kern at the time of release for the SP3000T.

Building upon the success of the highly acclaimed SP3000, Astell&Kern has taken its flagship player to the next level by incorporating the warm, rich sound of tube amplification. The SP3000T features Astell&Kern's innovative Triple Amp System, which was first introduced in 2021 with the A&ultima SP2000T.
This system allows users to tailor their listening experience by choosing between three distinct amplification modes:
- Tube amplification: Provides a warm, analog-like sound signature.
- Digital op-amp: Offers a clean, precise, and modern sound profile.
- Hybrid mode: Combines the best of both tube and op-amp amplification for a unique, customizable sound.
Users can easily switch between these three modes when using any of the SP3000T's outputs, including the 2.5mm, 3.5mm, or 4.4mm jacks, ensuring a versatile and personalized listening experience.
