I bought it new,so I don't know what the problem is with this amazing-playing DAP. :frowning2: I considered returning it to the seller, but nothing that plays better is sold in this country even at an extra cost. :neutral_face:

Another small issue with the SP3000. :thinking: The display lights up when charging. :scream: Why?

Why does the music itself always start playing when I plug in an IEM? This function cannot be turned off at all. :rage:

Yes. Musical reference sound. :) SP3000 and HiBy RS8 are the best DAPs I've heard.

Of course, I have this function active but when I put the DAP in my pants and the wheel is pressed and turned again, there is no function that would prevent the volume from increasing. "Volume Limit Displays a warning when the volume reaches a certain level and sets related options" This is...

The guy who designs or edits the SW of DAPs environment in Astell&Kern company is certainly not a fan of portable audio, specifically of DAPs. :relaxed: It feels like when I bought a cell phone a long time ago with a great SW player, but only 30 Mb of memory and no possibility to insert a...

I found another major weakness of the SP3000. :slight_frown: It is not possible to set the volume limit. It does have that feature, but it's broken and only a volume alert is displayed. Today I messed with the wheel in my pocket, the display turned on and I managed to increase the volume...

Yes, you're right. But that's "Now Playing". Why didn't it stay on the main display? Why change things that are traditional so many years?

As you can see in the picture, the guys from Astell&Kern also forgot about it with the new SP3000T DAP.

Okay. But that doesn't help me find out which track in the album order is currently playing. :relaxed:

Okay. I don't understand why such information is missing. There is enough space on the display. :)

I just bought SP3000. How do I know on the main display which song is currently playing and how many tracks are left until the end of the album? I meant that the main display does not show the number of songs in an album or folder and nor what song is currently playing. Other Astell&Kern DAPs...

Ulverr wrote me: "With SP3k, Ragnar was just aggressive and tiring at times. We all certainly listen to different music, so it may be different for you. Actually, I probably wouldn't buy the SP3000 with any other inears, I like good textured mids and the SP3k's are a bit odd. As for the dark...

I am deciding between buying the SP3000 or SP3000T for my IEM Noble Viking Ragnar. I have read that the original SP3000 will sound sharp and aggressive with Viking Ragnar. Is the SP3000T a better choice? Can someone write a more detailed comparison of SP3000 vs SP3000T? It's a pretty big...

I have new firmware V 1.83.

After last update PowerAmp doesn´t already work. Sometimes doesn´t work Shanling music player (app). What´s up? :scream: Maybe it needs new version Android and without new version is M6 Pro only off-line DAP. :rage:

It depend on your preferences. Odin has a little agressive upper mids. :slight_smile:

What? Kublai Khan is better than Tralli? :)

I tested LPGT vs SP3000, SP3000 and others. LPGT is on the same level as SE200. SP3000 (and SP2000) is sounds better.

Hard to say. :smile: There won't be much difference in sound between KK and Camelot. :)

What? :scream: Everybody here said me that Kublai Khan is better than Camelot. I bought Kublai Khan. :cry:

Here is my list. 1)HiBy RS8 2)Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000 3)Astell&Kern A&ultima SP1000 4)Astell&Kern A&futura SE300 5)Astell&Kern A&futura SE200 (only DAC AK4499EQ) and Lotoo PawGold Touch (very similar sound quality) 6)Astell&Kern SP2000T Onyx 7)iBasso DX320 8) AuneM1s 9) HiByR6...

Okay. Tomorrow I will write my "rank the best sounding daps" here. :)

Okay. I will give another example. :slight_smile: If someone has a subjective opinion that the earth is flat, it does not mean that it is true. :smile: If I say that a $30 mp3 player sounds better than a $4,000 hi-end DAP, is that really true? :scream: Of course, everyone can write anything they...

Subjective opinion and sound quality are two different things. Hi-end is not mid-fi. :) If someone has the opinion that the Shanling M0 Pro sounds better than the Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000, it doesn't mean it's true. I've experienced cases where someone tested hi-end IEMs using a Nokia 8210 4G...
