The DAC is supposed to give connectivity for wireless playback via WiFi and Bluetooth.1. While using these options the forward and reverse buttons (hardware) don’t function.2. While using the forward and reverse function from the software the screen displays the song that you have gone to but the playback does not respond and plays the same song.3. The does not inform about these Flaws & Glitches and asks you to use the ‘primRy’ playback function I.e. via headphones only.

I've upgraded from A&K SE200 to SP2000 within about 10 days of the initial purchase. Why? Because SP2000 simply has no equal. The DAP is so refined, it can only be measured by how perfect a desire is. The SP2000 I purchase is the copper version, which I had a pleasure of testing through a friend of mine before I splurged on it. The player is simply phenomenal - with its dual AK4499EQ DAC configuration, the fit and finish, the internal storage, the sound processing most importantly - it is breath-taking. Just make sure to pair it with equally high end IEMs / headphones, to show how strong this unit can shine. The sound stage, the delivery, the sound characteristic, the deep holographic sound with impeccable execution and delivery of all details makes this player push ...

The sound stage, the delivery, the sound characteristic, the deep holographic sound with impeccable execution and delivery of all details makes this player push the sound files to another level. With this unit, you will know a bad record from a good one. You will notice details you haven't before and you will be taken on another adventure where you are exposed to all the intricate details of the music you're playing through it. The SP2000 takes no prisoners, it doesn't change the sound to make it better. It simply extracts the very best out of each track, just the way the musician intended the recording to be heard. There are no artificial aspects or tuning of tracks. There is no unnatural colouring to make it sound better. It it as raw and good as it gets. Is this the perfect DAP? Yes. It is the end-game. For me at least.Pair it with the JH Audio Roxanne AION IEMs and you will never want to hear your music differently.
So many detail every DAp
The look and sound is great, A&K do that very well. But honestly I expected more, the accessories are very cheap and don’t do the player justice. The OS is very dated and clunky compared to modern smart phones and the screen on mine came with a defect, so I’ll have a chance to test out the warranty department as a first experience. If your looking for sound merits only; five stars, over all experience it’s a three star for me.
Great dap. Good chance this model will be rune ready soon. That's gonna be a nice addition.
