21.02.2025 08:19 | ~1 minute read

A new CD player Luxman D-03R has been announced – the model will replace the previous version D-03X. Luxman D-03R can work both as a disc player and as an external digital-to-analog converter – the heart of the device is High-End ROHM DB34352EKV chips in a dual mono configuration.

Luxman D-03R can work with signals up to PCM up to 32 bit / 384 kHz and DSD up to 22.5 MHz. The MQA format is supported, including MQA-CD. The Trinity transport mechanism with a 3.2 mm steel base and an offset center of gravity reliably dampens vibrations and provides excellent mechanical stability of the drive.
