Premium value that you can feel in your hands
A&futura SE100 shows our dedication to provide both premium quality and value to our listeners including an eye-catching design. It features a 5-inch touchscreen, Octa-core CPU, and the best audio performance in its league.
Astell&Kern is committed to delivering the original
performance as the artist intended you to hear and the SE100 is a
symbolic example of this vision and effort.
A&futura SE100 introduces an 8-channel DAC chip. 8-channel
DACs have previously only been available for premium home audio systems,
pro-audio workstations, and recording studio equipment. It is making a
debut for the first time in an Astell&Kern portable system.
Your favorite tunes will now sound fundamentality different with even greater dynamic range and refined sound.
There are many audio companies that talk about 'technologies',
yet Astell&Kern is the only brand that talks about 'progress' in the
audio experience.
- The ESS SABRE PRO series of Digital-to-Analog Converters (DAC) is targeted at premium audiophile and recording studio equipment. The SABRE PRO series sets a new benchmark in high-end audio by offering the industry's highest dynamic range (DNR) with impressively low levels of total harmonic distortion plus noise (THD+N) in a 32-bit, 8-channel DAC. All PRO SABRE DACs feature ESS's patented 32-bit HyperStream DAC technology which delivers outstanding sound quality and industry leading performance.
Maximum Output
It is common knowledge in the audio industry that
the amplifier plays a critical role in Hi-Fi audio systems.
The latest know-how and amplifier design technologies developed
by Astell&Kern have brought 4.1Vrms of balanced output power
with minimal noise. As the output power increases, the noise
fluctuates louder as well. However, A&futura SE100 shows 123dB
of SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) at 4.1Vrms of audio output.
At the same time, the noise level on single-ended is even smaller,
it produces 122dB of SNR. Pure sound is the result in our technical
achievement allowing for powerful, yet clean sound to be delivered
gracefully by the SE100.
