The Myryad MC-100 CD player was introduced in 1996 with a Sony CD mechanism but entirely designed with Myryad audio electronics. It uses a 1-bit Pulse Length Modulation (PLM) digital-to-analog converter and offers 8x oversampling. The frequency response is 20 Hz to 20 kHz with a tolerance of ±0.3 dB. It achieves a very low total harmonic distortion (THD) of 0.003% at 1 kHz and a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of 104 dB, delivering high fidelity sound reproduction. The MC-100 received a 5-star review in What Hi-Fi in November 1996, highlighting its quality and performance. It was part of Myryad's M-Series range, which included amplifiers and tuners, and was designed to integrate well with other Myryad components. The player is noted for its robust build and sound clarity, though some users have reported mechanical issues with the CD mechanism over time. The MC-100 remains a respected classic in high-end audio circles.
