The CD-1000 MkII, housed in a beautiful brushed aluminium chassis, integrates a digital and an analogue stage into a single, elegant device. It is designed to listen to music from a CD as well as to play audio files from a TV or DVD player connected via optical or coaxial input. The CD-1000 MkII delivers a natural, detailed and powerful sound, and can be easily integrated into any Hi-End stereo system.
