Let $n>1$ be a positive integer and let $A$ be an abelian variety over $mathbb{C}$. Then the symmetric product $S^n(A)$ is a normal projective variety over $mathbb{C}$ with Kodaira dimension zero (see for instance https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0006107.pdf).



Let $A(n)to S^n(A)$ be a resolution of singularities. Then, up to finite etale cover, $A(n)$ is a product of hyperkaehler varieties, an abelian variety, and simply connected strict Calabi-Yau varieties. (This should follow from the Beauville-Bogomolov decomposition theorem. Or does this require an additional hypothesis on $A(n)$.)



I am wondering how the decomposition of $A(n)$ looks like as $n$ grows. Is it always a strict Calabi-Yau variety? Could it be that $A(n)$ is an abelian variety in fact?



I am looking for examples and would appreciate any comments.
