**DISCONTINUED: Astell&Kern's A&norma SR35 digital audio player is sold out and discontinued. Check out their newer DAP, the SP3000M! |
|
Bloom's Take While A&K’s flagship A&ultima series (SP3000) for sure gets all the glory, it’s easy to forget about the A&norma lineup which typically takes portions of tech from the TOTL series, and turns them into class-leading designs at lower prices. Enter the SR35 with its quad-DAC, new amp under the hood, compact form-factor (one of the smallest among high-end DAPs), new and improved ‘Crimson’ UI, and excellent battery life at 20 hours of playback. It’s well-built with typical, top-notch A&K fit and finish, and provides a premium feel for 800 bucks. If you want a taste of what a flagship player does without dropping a mortgage payment, the SR35 delivers a perfectly scaled down version of the SP3000 sound and performance for a flagship experience we can all enjoy.

For the first time in the A&norma series, the SR35 deploys the Cirrus Logic CS43198 DAC in Quad configuration. In addition, A&K incorporates its unique technical collaboration between the DAC and patented TERATON ALPHA tech for outstanding advancement in dynamics, space, resolution, and separation. A Dual/Quad DAC switch mode is also offered enabling users to adjust and improve power mgmt. efficiency.
The SR35 is equipped with New Generation AMP tech previously exclusive to the A&ultima line, a unique design that improves noise reduction at high power output. The SR35 now contains the same amp design as the latest A&ultimate and A&futura products. Moreover, in order to reliably operate at varying impedances, the output current handling capability is increased to maximize the performance across all devices.
The SR35 supports a 2-step Gain Level mode to create the perfect match for a wide range of headphones and IEMs for seamless use of both sensitive and hard-to-drive devices. Both 'Normal Gain' and 'High Gain' modes can generate a high current output to create a powerful sound and excellent driver control with up to 6Vrms from the balanced connections.
The SR35 provides Hi-Fi audio anywhere at any time with premium-class specs and portability, featuring continuous playback time of 20 hours before requiring a recharge. Its compact size fits easily in your pocket, and weighing in at only 6.5 oz, it's light enough to carry without inconvenience.
The SR35 comes with a redesigned Crimson-themed UI, transforming it into a deeply connective music player. It's designed for quick music category browsing and re-experiencing forgotten songs. A&K added an album art search function for re-discovery and heightened interaction of music album art while listening.
