High Price, High Quality Music Player - No Replacement Batteries Available!
I write this review as the until recently happy owner of an Astell & Kern SR25 Norma player - purchased on Amazon in December 2021 for $500.00. It is - or was -an excellent music player. The quality of sound and functionality are way better than any of the iPod's I had previously owned. HOWEVER, that was before the internal rechargeable battery - similar to the one on the SR15and SR35 players - bubbled up and had to be replaced. NO AUTHORIZED DEALER OF ASTELL & KERN SELLS THE REPLACEMENT BATTERY NEEDED FOR ASTELL & KERN PLAYERS. So I am left with essentially a completely unusable $500 music player - all for want of a $30 battery that no dealer or stockist- not Amazon or any other online retailer - sells. Sadly, I have to say : Buyer Beware! You can spend a lot of money on an Astell & Kern player and end up with a player that does not work for want of a simple battery.

Really, really nice! I was debating between this and the ak70 mk2 as the wonky look of the SR15 didn't convince me, in the end I took a chance on the SR15 based on specs but oh boy! I'm glad, this is a thing of beauty, sort of reminds me of the monolith in 2001 Space Odyssey! Sound is outstanding, my Beoplay H7 sounnd as they never sounded before, both wired and on Bluetooth. I will be using the SR15 mostly to play Tidal Hi-Fi, the stock app is a light version of the android full player and with no offline option but, to my sweet surprise, it streams Masters-quality content which the android counterpart cannot do, however I also downloaded and installed the full Tidal apk from apkPure as it's easier to navigate (the Spotify apk can also be installed but to play lossy music on this dap would be sacrilege). I love it, it's crazy expensive for my pockets, it sounds warm, dynamic, detailed, it looks awesome, solid, I'm glad I bought it and I recommend it. Update: I loved this player's audio capabilities for the few days I had it to test it but in the end it had to be returned. I simply could not justify the price-tag: Ui is very limited, screen is too small and I ended up browsing Tidal on my phone, adding music to my favorites to then go back to the SR15 to play the chosen albums. In addition Bluetooth range is limited to few meters at best, disappointing when compared to huge range my phone has. For me it's back to usb-dac+phone combo!

Davvero eccellente. Vale il prezzo del biglietto.

Después de haber probado varios aparatos e llegado a la conclusión que este tiene el sonido más refinado. En su rango de precios de lo mejor. Sonido bién afinado y equilibrado, tamaño genial para llevar en el bolsillo, le hace falta una funda eso sí pero son caras. Lo he comparado con Sony Walkman 507, ibasso DX150, fiio M11, Walkman 105. También he probado el fiio M11 Pro pero ya se va algo el precio. Supongo que para mejorar ya te tienes que gastar 1.400 o 2.000 €. Emparejado con unos auriculares Focal Listen y de miedo. Aconsejo el duo Astell, focal.

Je fais un examen point par point des aspects de cet appareil: - Fabrication: Il semble solide comme une pierre. C'est beau Tout très bien conçu. Bien que l’écran présente une légère inclinaison, la vérité est qu’elle est belle. Cette inclinaison est très légère. La ligne de ce produit est la moitié entre le modèle précédent (AK70) et celle de produits plus chers comme le AK320. Dans la main, cela rappelle beaucoup le AK300 .. seulement plus petit. - Le logiciel avait besoin de mises à jour. L'équipement est devenu très chaud et la batterie s'est épuisée rapidement. Très vite, quelques mises à jour sont arrivées pour résoudre ce problème. - Il a un S.O. très fluide et élégant. Dans cet aspect, tout très bien. - Actuellement un microSD 400 qui gère rapidement. - La batterie reste le point faible des produits A & K. Avec les fichiers flac, cela ne semble pas durer plus de six heures. - SON: Très très détaillé, clair, large. Cela me rappelle beaucoup les équipements précédents tels que les AK100 II et AK 70, mais beaucoup plus raffinés. - C’est un produit qui se démarque nettement des précédents produits de milieu de gamme (AK70, AK100 II ...) Peut-être sont-ils moins chers et ont une qualité audio similaire ... Mais la beauté de cette A & K est un avantage en sa faveur ... comme toujours dans le cas de A & K! En relation qualité / design / beauté / prix / avantages je lui donne un 10.
