The CD11 Tribute is a CD player from Rotel, a well-established manufacturer known for delivering competitive measured performance at accessible prices, built with exceptional signal-to-noise performance. The CD11 Tribute brings Rotel's considered engineering to disc-based digital source playback.

Key specs that matter

Frequency response for CD spans 20Hz to 20,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Dynamic range exceeds 99dB, with signal-to-noise ratio exceeding an exceptional 125dB, and total harmonic distortion plus noise at 0.009%. At 430 x 98 x 314mm and 5.8kg, the CD11 Tribute maintains a manageable footprint.

Sound and use context

Expect exceptionally clean CD playback reflecting the extraordinary over-125dB signal-to-noise figure, consistent with Rotel's broader reputation for delivering competitive measured performance at accessible pricing.

Pairing

Rotel's own extensive amplifier catalogue, including the RA-1592MKII and RMB-1585MKII, offers natural companion components for a coherently voiced, entirely Rotel-based system.

Alternatives

Rotel's broader digital source catalogue offers alternatives for buyers wanting a different balance of features.
