Offered is „SP 3000“ by Astell & Kern as second-hand device from the category „Portable Audio“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8808574828 ends on 20.12.2026 at 18:38 o'clock.
Good price. At €1,500 in good condition, this sits right on the median of your recent comparables, so it’s a fair, market-aligned ask rather than a bargain hunt or an overreach. Against the €1,224 to €1,793 interquartile band, it lands comfortably in the normal zone for this model.
That makes it a sensible buy if you want one of Astell & Kern’s most respected flagships: the SP3000 is prized for its highly resolving sound, strong dynamics, and premium build, with the kind of all-in-one portability that still appeals to serious listeners. In good condition, the main upside is simply avoiding the usual depreciation hit on a top-tier DAP while getting a clean unit at a fair used price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Astell&Kern emerged from South Korea's rich audio heritage, launching its first product in 2012 and officially founding as a brand in 2013 in Seoul. Rooted in the legacy of iriver's MP3 players dating back to 1999, the company—now a subsidiary of Dreamus—embodies a philosophy drawn from its name: "Astell" (Latin for star) and "Kern" (German for core), symbolizing an unrelenting pursuit of music's original sound. This origin story reflects decades of accumulated expertise in premium audio craftsmanship.
The brand focuses on high-fidelity portable and home audio solutions, excelling in digital audio players (DAPs) like the iconic AK100 and A&ultima series, alongside headphones, in-ear monitors through collaborations, home audio systems, and accessories. Their designs prioritize advanced noise reduction, proprietary amplifier architectures, and support for hi-res audio files, delivering uncompromised playback without venturing into speakers, turntables, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audiophile market, Astell&Kern commands respect among discerning listeners for its "Difference in Sound Quality"—a sensory depth that captures the emotion and space of every note. Renowned for luxury builds and cutting-edge R&D, it leads the global premium DAP segment, appealing to buyers who demand superiority over mass-market compromises.
