Description
The Cyrus philosophy for reading CD has always been the same – read it once and read it accurately.
The latest iteration of Cyrus SE technology in the CDi-XR does exactly this, streaming the data from the disc to the audio processing circuitry with precision and accuracy.
The CDi-XR DAC design includes the highest specified Sabre DAC.
This, partnered with a high-speed analogue stage with excellent dynamic range delivers exceptional noise and THD performance from the DAC stage.
Within a CD player is a complex mix of signals including fast digital audio, sensitive analogue audio, high current servo and system control.
To minimise interaction between these circuit stages the power supply design of the CDi-XR is completely segmented.
The digital control circuits run from a dedicated, high-efficiency supply, with other parts of the player powered from an over-specified linear power supply with toroidal transformer.
Nine individual stage regulators smooth and distribute power within the player according to demand.
