For your consideration, an Astell & Kern A&ultima SP1000M purchased new from World-Wide Stereo in 2020.

The SP1000M has dual digital-to-analog converters (DACs), one for each stereo channel. This ensures outstanding detail and dynamic range, a completely quiet background, and a spacious soundstage.

These powerful AKM AK4497EQ DACs do native playback of Direct Stream Digital (DSD) files. You also get bit-perfect playback for PCM-based files up to 32-bit/384kHz. And this DAC configuration produces a surprising amount of detail from your CD-quality and compressed music files, too. The player is compatible with MQA, a high-resolution audio format.

A voltage-controlled high-precision clock tames detail-smearing jitter. This ensures your music will sound as natural and finely detailed as possible.

Built-in Wi-Fi lets the SP1000M easily connect your home network. Wirelessly stream audio (including high-res audio) from your computer, digital music server, smartphone or tablet. And you can stream wirelessly to any DLNA-compatible speakers on your network or to a Bluetooth speaker.
