The NuPrime CDT-9 is a high-accuracy single-speed CD transport with built-in sample rate conversion (SRC). It reads Red Book CDs with low jitter and can upsample playback to PCM or DSD, offering multiple digital outputs for use with external DACs. Based on the available product pages, it appears to still be offered by NuPrime and authorized dealers, so it is not marked as discontinued.
