X-RAYV3 CD Player
The
X-RayV3 is one of the best CD players in the world regardless
of price. In our view a CD player's technical performance defines its
sound quality. The X-RayV3 has vanishingly low distortion,
extremely low jitter, low noise threshold, great linearity and is on a par
or better than most of the world's expensive CD players.
| Upsampling to 24-bits at
96kHz. |
Gives greatly improved
sound due to digital noise and other artefacts being moved out of
band. |
| Highly sophisticated
PSU. |
Allows all circuits to
operate in ideal conditions, giving extraordinary results. |
| Very low jitter. |
Low jitter and clock
errors mean more harmonic accuracy and dynamic range. It sounds
better. |
| Generally excellent
technical performance. |
Pretty well as good as
any regardless of price. |
