About the CD5
The CD5 is a top-loading CD player and digital transport built around a Philips PRO2M mechanism mounted on a machined aluminum support. It uses a 24-bit DAC and a fully balanced, FET direct-coupled analog output stage. It plays standard audio CDs, CD-R/RW discs, and the CD layer of hybrid SACDs; it does not play SACD-only discs, DVD-Audio, or DVD-Video. Analog outputs are balanced XLR and single-ended RCA, while digital outputs are AES/EBU XLR and BNC coaxial.
