Retail price: 599.00
This CD transport is designed to read digital audio signals with extreme precision from CDs and pass them to an external DAC or compatible amplifier. It uses the S3 Servo mechanism, which ensures accurate and consistent data recovery. The enclosure is acoustically damped to minimize external vibrations. With digital outputs including S/PDIF coaxial and TOSLINK optical, it offers flexible connection options. Power consumption is up to 25W during operation and less than 0.5W in standby. Dimensions are 85 x 430 x 315 mm (H x W x D) and the weight is 4.3 kg.
The Cambridge Audio CXC was designed in London by Cambridge Audio's in-house engineering team, with a focus on pure CD reading without noise or jitter. The CXC uses the famous S3 servo mechanism from their high-end models, developed specifically for audio CDs. The sturdy metal housing prevents vibration. Everything is about pure digital precision: no DAC, only digital signal via coax or optical.
Cambridge Audio was founded in 1968 in Cambridge, England. That same year, the company introduced its first product, the P40, an integrated amplifier with a toroidal transformer. Products such as the P50 amplifier and the T55 FM tuner followed in the 1970s and 1980s. In 1995, the company moved to London. In 1999, the Azur development program was launched. Starting in 2003, Azur series models were produced, including the 640A and 640C. In 2010, the company introduced the StreamMagic platform. In 2014, the CX series was launched. In 2016, the Edge line appeared, named after co-founder Professor Gordon Edge. An all-new EVO series was introduced in 2021.
