Nu Prime CDT-9

The NuPrime CDT-9 is a highly accurate professional music CD transport with powerful DSP-based decoder that provides all Red Book error-correction capabilities with master-clock control of the entire decoding system, thus lowering jitter significantly. The transport’s single speed minimizes vibration and unbalanced discs. A selectable sampling rate converter (SRC) samples the CD format to a higher sampling rate (up to PCM 24-bit/768kHz and DSD256) with ultra-low jitter and distortion.

Specifications :

The CDT-9 Transport comes with features that enable it to out perform all CD transports in its price range.

Highly Accurate CD Playback

• A powerful ARM chip LPC2103F CD reads, writes and controls error correction
• Philips SAA7824HL high-end laser reads/writes head control and decodes chips for CD transport.
• Algorithm reduces digital interference resulting in extremely low jitter
• Coaxial output with a dedicated isolation transformer
• Low jitter I2S output for professional use

Sampling Rate Converter

• The sampling rate of CD playback can be up sampled to PCM and DSD, from 44.1kHz to 768kHz or DoP256
• The conversion is achieved by up-sampling to mega hertz before down converting to the targeted sampling rate with ultra-low jitter and distortion

Power and Mechanical

• Custom R-type professional transformer with shielding
• Low power consumption in Standby Mode•
• NuPrime vibration-free isolation feet
• High quality aluminium remote control
