Sony announced it is offering two “premium” music players, one of which is plated in gold, and promises superior audio quality for a hefty price tag.
In a news release, Sony described the gold-plated player as “designed to immerse you in sublime, nuanced sound.” The company said that the gold-plated device is encased in a 99.99% pure gold-plated oxygen-free copper chassis. “This realizes a stronger digital sound and higher rigidity, enabling clear, expansive sound, so you can experience each instrument as if it were performing live.”
The second new player is in an aluminum alloy frame that also promises superior audio quality.
On its website, the gold-plated player is listed at $3,199.99. The aluminum alloy player is approximately $1,600, WNYW reported.
Sony said the new devices will be available in select Asian countries beginning in April.
