CD-1.1x
The CD 1.1x uses the Philips L1210 mechanism and a simple
yet revealing DAC made with the 1543 16 bit multi-bit
digital to analogue converter chip. This player, like its
bigger brothers, features no oversampling, no digital or
analogue filtering. This makes for a highly effective sonic
combination all housed in a new, smaller chassis which
measures just 91 x 440 x 235 mm (HWD)
The player uses a single 6111WA miniature double triode,
each half of the valve running a different channel.
Standard parts as dictated by it Level One status;
Beyschlag resistors, standard electrolytic capacitors, tin
foil output capacitors.
CD-2.1x/II
The
CD 2.1x/II is-essentially a component upgraded version of
the CD1.1x. Better parts, such as high grade Audio Note
tantalum resistors, a few scattered Black Gate capacitors
and Audio Note copper foil output capacitors make for a
more open, detailed and lively performance than the
CD-1.1x. The CD 2.1x Mk.II uses the Philips L1210 mechanism
and a simple yet revealing DAC made with the 1543 16 bit
multi-bit digital to analogue converter chip. This player,
like its bigger brothers, features no oversampling, no
digital or analogue filtering. This makes for a highly
effective sonic combination all housed in a new, smaller
chassis which measures just 91 x 440 x 235 mm (HWD).

CD-4.1x
This is a completely new player, taking the one box CD
player places it has never gone before. It consists of a
CDT Two/II paired with a slightly upgraded DAC2.1x Audo
Note tantalum resistors and Black Gate caps on the digital
PCB and Audio Note copper foil capacitors on the output,
housed in an OTO-sized chassis. Special attention has been
placed on the power supplies in this unit - even the
display has its own supply to reduce internal noise way
beyond what standards call for. Combined with its
clock-locked direct coupling between the transport and DAC
makes this player a musical feast with a rich and deeply
textured programme.
In our demos we have found members of the public not
talking but listening and listening for hours - one fellow
stayed for two days! The player seems to disarm the
audience and delivers finally what CD promised.
