Reference CD player
Since 1998, Electrocompaniet has produced one of the best sounding CD players on the market, the EMC 1-UP. The new EMC 1 MKIV builds upon this legacy, and refines by using a new drive unit. The player has a high performance sample rate converter, fully balanced D/A converters and discrete analog audio circuitry for excellent performance. It features an unique cancellation system which cancels acoustic / mechanical vibrations, preventing the laser pick-up from receiving unwanted and sonically degrading signals.The audio quality surpasses our own EMC 1 UP, arguably one of the best CD players on the market today.
Product highlights:
- No-compromise mechanical design with five different housings, which shield analogue, digital, transport, transformer and controller circuitry.
- Electromechanical cancellation system which cancels acoustic-mechanical vibrations, preventing the laser pickup from receiving mechanical distortions.
- Separate transformers and power supplies for analogue and digital circuits.
- Fully balanced D/A converter with fully balanced discrete analog audio circuitry.
- Digital outputs via S/PDIF and Toslink.
- 12V trigger input for remote power ON.
- RS232 port for firmware upgrades and control through a wide range of home installation systems.
- Soundcare superspikes for the best possible footing.
