The UNICO CD UNO is a CD player from Unison Research, a well-established Italian manufacturer known for characterful tube-informed electronics engineering, built with an exceptional signal-to-noise figure. The UNICO CD UNO brings Unison Research's considered engineering to disc-based digital source playback.

Key specs that matter

Signal-to-noise ratio for CD is an exceptional 125dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise at a near-immeasurable 0.0003%. At 450 x 380 x 130mm and 10kg, the UNICO CD UNO maintains a manageable CD player chassis reflecting Unison Research's considered Italian engineering standards.

Sound and use context

Expect exceptionally clean CD playback reflecting the exceptional 125dB signal-to-noise figure and near-immeasurable 0.0003% distortion figure, consistent with Unison Research's broader accomplished digital source engineering philosophy.

Pairing

Unison Research's own amplifier catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings within the same broader catalogue.

Alternatives

Other manufacturers' comparable CD players offer alternatives for buyers wanting to compare measured performance at a similar price point.
