The A&ultima SP3000, launched with top-notch technology and craftsmanship, has received the highest praise from audiophiles worldwide for elevating the Digital Audio Player to a higher Hi-Fi level with its unparalleled sound quality.
To add new value to the outstanding SP3000, Astell&Kern has thoroughly reviewed various options and introduces a new dimension of perfection through the use of Platinum, a metal synonymous with luxury. Platinum, often referred to as 'white gold,' is a unique metal composed purely of a single element, like fine gold. It is highly resistant to corrosion, and it has the characteristic of not tarnishing. Particularly, Platinum is especially known for its natural white sheen, making it a popular choice for high-end precious metals.
To infuse new perfection, Astell&Kern utilized the PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) technique to create the Platinum Coating. This highly precise process involves using an expensive vacuum chamber to create an ultra-vacuum state, vaporizing the Platinum metal at high temperatures to form an ionized gas called plasma, which then uniformly coats the surface of the SP3000 904L Stainless Steel. Finally, an AF coating is applied to prevent fingerprints, completing the SP3000 Platinum Coated 904L Stainless Steel edition.
The SP3000 Platinum Coated 904L Stainless Steel, showcases Astell&Kern's unparalleled craftsmanship, by combining the extraordinary sound of the SP3000 with the unique color imparted by the Platinum Coating, representing the pinnacle of luxury Hi-Fi players.
For the final touch of exclusivity, the SP3000 Platinum Coated 904L Stainless Steel comes with a Cordovan* case, using one of the most luxurious leathers available.
