Astell&Kern SE300: The High-End Audiophile Portable Player

If you’re in the market for a high-end audiophile portable player, the Astell&Kern A&Futura SE300 is a choice worth considering. This player is the fourth model in Astell&Kern’s A&Futura line, and it boasts impressive features that will provide you with an exceptional listening experience.

A Choice Between Class A and AB

The Astell&Kern A&Futura SE300 is equipped with a dual amplifier that allows you to choose between Class A modules for a warm, natural, and smooth listening experience or Class AB modules to maximize dynamics and output power. This amplification offers an excellent signal-to-noise ratio of 115 dB with a distortion of only 0.006%. This feat is due in part to the exclusive Teraton Alpha technology, which eliminates noise from the power supply and components to ensure the highest precision listening.

R-2R DAC: An Authentic Sound Experience

The SE300’s R-2R DAC is at the heart of its incredible sound quality. Unlike commonly used Delta-Sigma DACs, the R-2R DAC takes a unique approach by arranging resistors in a ladder shape. This complex method produces natural and dynamic Hi-Fi sounds, creating an immersive musical experience.

Astell&Kern has dedicated many years to developing and perfecting this technology. Each of the SE300’s 96 ultra-precise resistors is meticulously selected to ensure unparalleled sound quality. With the R-2R DAC, Astell&Kern brings digital music closer to the authenticity of analog audio.

Optimized FPGA OS/NOS Modes

The SE300 comes with an FPGA exclusively developed by Astell&Kern, ensuring optimized OS/NOS modes. Using this technology instead of common commercial semiconductor chips allows for ideal relaying of digital signals to the R-2R DAC.

Enjoy accurately reproduced sound styles thanks to the NOS and OS modes, meticulously designed for the SE300’s hardware and software. This approach ensures an immersive and detail-rich audio experience.

A Large Touchscreen

The Astell&Kern A&Futura SE300 portable player features a large 5.46-inch (14 cm) Full HD touchscreen that allows you to easily navigate menus and your music library. Navigation is smooth and fast thanks to the integration of a quad-core processor. During playback, precise volume adjustment is achieved using the large-travel potentiometer located on the side of the Astell&Kern A&Futura SE300 player.
