AK240 Stainless Steel edition eliminates more electrical 'noise', meaning a purer audio experience, It now comes with a stainless steel exterior, which gives it a more luxurious feel and look.
There’s a beautiful 3.31-inch AMOLED touchscreen to play on and Bluetooth build in, so it’s compatible with wireless headphones. In terms of functionality, the player remains unchanged. It still uses a dual 24-bit/192kHz DAC design and there's extensive file support, including native DSD playback.
You'll find 256GB of memory on board, and you can add more with a microSD card (up to 128GB). You do get a fancy new leather case from Tanniere Rémy Carriat. The limited edition AK240 will be available through astellnkern.com in the coming weeks for £2500.
