Reviews and Awards:
The Caspian CD Player is universally regarded as one of the best sounding players at its class. It is no surprise therefore to discover that it manages to enchant and impress with its smooth and life-like reproduction of any genre of music.
It utilises a one-piece optimised motherboard, de-coupled mechanism and dedicated transformer/power supplies for the analogue and digital domains. With this isolation and decoupling technology along with carefully selected components, it is a fine example of how CD still has plenty to offer in high quality audio reproduction.
