  • Abstract:  We've have a lot of Campfire fans writing in to ask about which DACs and players work best with the Campfire sound signature. And indeed, this is a tricky question. Not every great headphone and great DAC will sound fantastic as a pair. And some DACs can...

  • Since my Astell&Kern journey began almost four years ago, I have been hooked. I have made my way through numerous models of their line-up, and AK has kept getting better and better. The SP1000 is my personal choice for best DAP, but it has downsides when...

  • Abstract:  Astell & Kern is one of those companies that I was instantly intrigued by the moment I saw their first industrial-designed audiophile product years ago — the AK100 — before I'd even heard a note of music through one of their DAPs.A relatively new player o...

  • Subtle and clear sound, Intuitive interface, DAC and preamp,
  • Design may not appeal to all,
  • Making strides with performance, usability and file support, the A&norma keeps A&K's standard line progressing in the right direction. It offers more refinement, rather than a full-scale revolution, over its predecessor, which is reaching the end of its n...
