Successor to the multi-award-winning SR25 MKII, the premium hi-resolution audio device is the first to feature the brand’s own New Generation Amp technology and an interchangeable Quad DAC Mode as well as a brand-new user interface.

Boasting 20 hours of continuous playtime, the SR35 deploys the first Dual/Quad DAC switching mode in the A&norma series, enabling users to easily adjust the sound and power output while improving power efficiency. The brand’s patented TERATON APLHA technology ensures balanced dynamics and class leading resolution throughout listening sessions.

Elevating the series to new heights of audio excellence, the new SR35 is the first in the A&norma series to be equipped with New Generation AMP technology from Astell&Kern. Featured in the latest high-end A&ultima and A&futura range, the exclusive, in-house amplifier effectively eliminates noise at a high-power output to ensure SR35 listeners experience the clearest possible, distortion free sound at all times. The new amplifier technology built into the SR35 also boasts a two-step gain mode for the ultimate Hi-Fi experience. New gain settings generate a high current output to produce a consistently powerful sound with excellent driver control to ensure seamless use of sensitive IEMs and hard-to-drive headphones.

For the most seamless of listening experiences, the SR35 comes with a reimagined, crimson-themed, intuitive user interface featuring a new album artwork search function to allow audio connoisseurs to rediscover the joy of the art form.

Equipped with Dual Band Wi-Fi (2.4/5GHz) to provide strengthened network performance, music in the highest possible quality can be enjoyed through a wide range of streaming and Roon Ready services. The SR35 also brings your other devices up to its level. Music from an external device, such as a smartphone, can now be played back in high quality on the SR35 through a new BT Sink function.

Further new functionality comes with Roon Ready status, plus full MQA 8x decoder support - enabling the SR35 to natively play and stream Hi-Fi MQA tracks. Both additions keep the new model true to the A&norma concept of playing authentic sounds anywhere and at any time.
