PRODUCT FEATURES
Servo Evolution
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
CDt-XR does exactly this, streaming the data from the disc to the audio
processing circuitry with precision and accuracy.
Power supply design
As with any CD player, the performance of digital CD transports benefits
greatly from high quality, stable power supplies. In the case of the CDt-XR,
the digital control circuits run from a dedicated, high-efficiency power
supply. A high capacity linear supply feeds separately to the SE circuit, the
digital master clock, the digital audio output driver, the PLL master clock
and the drive motors through independent regulation channels.
PSU-XR port
The CDt-XR includes a port for the all-new PSU-XR power supply upgrade. Thirty
years ago Cyrus broke new ground with the introduction of the PSX-R, the first
ever regulated power supply upgrade that automatically adapted to match
perfectly the power requirements of any connected product. The PSU-XR raises
the bar by sourcing no less than five independent regulated supplies in a
single box. For the CDt-XR the PSU-XR is employed to reduce dynamic loads on
the internal power supplies and enable these to run under more stable
conditions.
Connectivity
The CDt-XR includes both optical and SPDIF coaxial digital outputs fed from a
dedicated digital audio output driver.
