Super Audio CD Player with Rigid Construction
Perfect form, perfect function.
Our Pure Audio Component Series represents the very best in audio reproduction. The very best in both form and function; high-grade components that work to give you a pure, unadulterated sound.
Each component in the series, whether an amplifier, radio tuner or SACD player, shares the signature curved left-side aluminium front panel, as well as a discreet LCD display (that may also be turned off or dimmed, if required).
The 2-channel PD-D9-J features AIR Studio’s tuning: a benchmark of high fidelity sound. AIR Studio’s tuning ensures that the internal response circuit is quick, and music is reproduced as near to the original as possible.
The player features a special quadruple-layered chassis; the front, top and side panels are made of aluminium. The PD-D9-J also has a rigid underbase construction, offering an extremely high internal stability. This means that the audio you here is virtually interference and noise-free.
This benefit is further enhanced by the extremely rigid TAOC feet that isolate the player from vibration on virtually any surface.
The PD-D9-J relies on two Wolfson 192 kHz/24-bit high-performance digital-to-analogue converters that operate in parallel. Their high sampling rates eliminate timing jitter and provide masterful sound quality.
The PD-D9-J will play both your CD and SACD discs, as well as CD-R and CD-RW discs; and is also compatible with MP3 and WMA compressed audio formats.
The player integrates a Pure Audio listening mode, which switches off the digital circuitry and display for a clean and detailed analogue sound reproduction.
A pure, crystal sound experience from your music collection.
