High-End Audio CD Transport

CD Box DS2 T – high end CD tranport!

Pure CD players are in contrast to DVD or Blu-ray Disc players frequently better in playback of stereo CDs. The CD Box DS2 T is designed exclusively as a pure audio CD transport, sending digital “Red Book standard” signals to an external digital to analogue converter and is a true master of his trade. In addition to a high-quality sound, a durable drive is essential for the perfect CD playback, that is why we put our CD drives in a torsion-resistant cabinet. Our servo system allows real-time scanning with minimal jitter. Together with any advanced D/A converter, like our DAC Box DS2 ultra, highend sound reproduction is achieved, as it can not be found elsewhere in this price range. Visually the CD Box DS2 T is adapted to the new DS2 line with their elegant looks and versions with wooden side panels, as pictured below.
