Commentary

A CD player developed as a special edition of the Alpha8CD.

The Alpha8 SE CD has HDCD playback capability.
When playing HDCD-format software, the circuit automatically operates.

The transport section uses a highly reliable 3-beam CD transport, and is equipped with digital servo control that produces excellent tracking capability and quick track access to achieve excellent reading capability.
In addition, a newly designed low-jitter clock oscillator has been incorporated to achieve high-resolution sound.

The display has a dimmer function, so you can reduce the amount of light or turn off the light.

The digital circuit uses a special aluminum alloy shield and vibration isolation mechanism to minimize external influences such as vibration and electromagnetic waves, and realizes natural reproduction.

Wireless remote control is included.
