Description
The Caspian CD Player is universally regarded as one of the best sounding players at its class. It is no surprise therefore to discover that it manages to enchant and impress with its smooth and life-like reproduction of any genre of music.
It utilises a one-piece optimised motherboard, de-coupled mechanism and dedicated transformer/power supplies for the analogue and digital domains. With this isolation and decoupling technology along with carefully selected components, it is a fine example of how CD still has plenty to offer in high quality audio reproduction.
Key Features
- Isolated and decoupled mechanism housing for increased laser tracking capability
- Dual power supplies for minimum interference
- One-piece, optimised motherboard for shorter signal paths
- High-end grade electronic components
- Super-precision master clock for reduced jitter
- RCA and XLR balanced outputs
- Optical digital and RCA outputs
- Robust and slimline design
