Set music to stun! Dazzling CD performance at an amazing price

Why buy a dedicated CD player these days when you can have DVD and Blu-ray playback “for free” too? Because nothing in life is free…

For such a great value CD player, we don’t believe you get the best quality by adding in costly multi-channel chipsets and more platter spin speeds. Choose DVD and Blu-ray playback and you inevitably lose audio quality, with cheaper components elsewhere.

That’s why Cambridge Audio’s “Sound First” design principles maximise audio quality and minimise cost and clutter. So the Topaz CD5 does just one thing exceedingly well: getting every bit of music detail from your discs.

Only music reproduction matters – and this audiophile CD player opens up a whole new world of real hi-fi sound, thanks to its premium components. What’s more, it’s designed play MP3s and WMA files from CD too, giving you flexibility where you want it, without compromising quality.

Central to the CD5’s performance is its high-quality Wolfson digital-to-analogue converter, which draws more detail out of every type of music. Add in other quality components, including a two-pole Butterworth filter to cut out noise smoothly, and you have a true music-lover’s machine.

Our “Sound First” principles even apply to the casing. While most budget CD players hide a plastic case behind their metal fronts, our audio-obsessed design team insisted on an all-metal case to minimise vibration and maximise music purity.

You won’t find another player at this price that extracts such stunning detail from your CDs.

 The latest addition to the new Marantz MusicLink series is the HD-CD1, a high-quality CD player in the same compact form as the HD-AMP1 amplifier, for which it is the perfect match. Combining more than 30 years of Marantz expertise in compact disc playback with the latest developments in digital audio technology, it's ideal for use as a CD transport when used with the HD-AMP1, or as a CD player in any situation where a compact form-factor is required without any compromise on sound quality. Small it may be, but it makes use of state-of-the-art Marantz technology carried over from our Award-winning CD players, including a high-resolution 192kHz/24-bit digital-to-analog converter from Cirrus Logic, a high-accuracy system clock, and the famous Marantz HDAM-SA2 amplifier modules, as found in our flagship Reference Series CD players and amplifiers. Selected components are also used throughout the audio signal path, for the very best reproduction of your music. A centralized CD mechanism, able to play MP3, WMA and AAC files as well as standard CDs, is also used for ultra-accurate disc-reading and, along with its analog audio outputs, optical and coaxial digital connections are provided, allowing the HD-CD1 to be connected directly to the HD-AMP1's ultra-high-quality digital-to-analog conversion. The HD-CD1 also features the stylish MusicLink design, with a solid aluminum front panel, double-layer chassis for vibration isolation and retro-style side panels. It also includes a high-quality integral headphone amplifier with adjustable gain to drive high-end headphones for personal listening and comes complete with a remote control for all its functions, also able to 'drive' a complete system of HD-CD1 and HD-AMP1. It's a superb Marantz CD player—in miniature!
