The CD-Zero is equipped with a modified Philips front-loading transport. An analog output stage on a 6111WA dual triode. Finishing options: brushed aluminum or classic black acrylic.
An upgraded version of CD1.1x. CD player with Philips L1210 transport and remote control. Case color: Black, silver.
The Audio Note CD3.1xV2 is the first integrated CD player model in our range to use the highly prized AD1865 digital-to-analog converter chip, the same device we use in our more expensive standalone DACs.
CD-4.1x is a completely new CD player that has no analogues in the audio industry. It uses a Two/II CD transport with an upgraded DAC from the CD-2.1x Mk.II, on the digital printed circuit board there are Audio Note tantalum resistors and Black Gate capacitors, on the output stage there are Audio Note capacitors made of copper foil.
The model is based on the proprietary Pro 2LF optical disk transport with a top loading and a three-beam laser head. The device is designed in a hybrid concept — the analog part is made on dual triodes 5814a and 5687WB, powered by a pair of proprietary output transformers with SHiB cores.
Philips' customized front-loading internal modified mechanism is exclusively designed for reading authentic Red Book CDs, which, in our opinion, is still the best digital music format available.
Audio Note CDT-One V2 is equipped with digital outputs of both unbalanced RCA 75 ohm SPDif and balanced XLR 110 ohm AES/EBU, with transformer connection
Level 2 CD transport based on a modified Philips CD Pro2LF top-loading mechanism, remote control. Finishing options: brushed aluminum or classic black acrylic.
A Level 3 CD transport based on a modified Philips CD Pro2LF top-loading mechanism. A power supply unit with 3 power transformers. A silver Audio Note AN-Vx cable is used for internal digital signal transmission. Output transformer with silver wire windings with thin lamination. The circuit uses Audio Note tantalum resistors and keratin electrolyte capacitors.
A Level 3 CD transport based on a modified Philips CD Pro2LF top-loading mechanism. Power supply unit with 3 power transformers, with throttle filtration.
The device is built on an aluminum chassis weighing 22 kg, and the transport mechanism is a modified Phillips CD Pro2LF drive, which, in turn, is mounted on its own spring-loaded chassis for maximum mechanical insulation.
The best-in-class CD Transport Audio Note CDT Six, it has been specially designed to convey the most emotional sound characters, and meets all the criteria of Audio Note Level 6.
