Maestro CDP
Commentary

A CD player that can also be used as a digital audio processor.

The pickup mechanism adopts the latest version mechanism made by Philips.
This mechanism is isolated by a solid 3 mm thick steel sub-chassis to shut off vibration and other disturbance factors, and is combined with a servo decoding circuit unique to audio analog to reduce data errors and noise.

The digital processor contains 24 bit precision resampling and re-locking circuits and a 96kHz/24bit D/A converter.
In addition to the normal 44.1 kHz, you can listen to the sound upconverted to 96 kHz by selecting the mode. This function is also effective for external digital input. The signal of DVD, MD, PC, etc. can be converted to 96 kHz and output as digital.

Equipped with loop mode function, the signal sent to an external digital processor can be converted back to Mestro CDP for analog conversion.

The re-locking circuit reduces jitter by up to 30 dB.

All stages of the analog circuit are differential amplifier circuits.

The output jacks are equipped with balanced and unbalanced outputs.

Wireless remote control is included.
