About the No. 31
The Mark Levinson No. 31 is a reference-level single-play CD transport introduced in 1992. It features a top-loading design with a motorized lid, low-mass CD damper for fast track switching, and separate power supplies in side towers for low noise. Designed to pair with Mark Levinson digital processors like the No. 30, it includes slave in/out for communication. Outputs include AES/EBU (XLR, 110 ohms), S/PDIF (RCA, 75 ohms), HP ST-Type optical (AT&T-compatible, 150MHz), and EIAJ Toslink optical. The unit uses a Philips CDM-4 Industrial mechanism. It is no longer manufactured, succeeded by the No. 31.5.
