Highly Accurate CD Transport with Sampling Rate Converter

The NuPrime CDT-8 Pro is a highly accurate professional CD transport with powerful DSP-based decoder that provides all Red Book error-correction capabilities with master-clock control of the entire decoding system, thus lowering jitter significantly. The transport’s single speed minimizes vibration and unbalanced discs. A selectable sampling rate converter (SRC) up samples the CD format to higher sampling rate with ultra-low jitter and distortion.

Features:

Highly Accurate CD Playback

    • A powerful ARM chip LPC2103F CD reads, writes and controls error correction
    • Philips SAA7824HL high-end laser reads/writes head control and decodes chips
    • Supports CD-DA CD-R, CD-RW
    • Algorithm reduces digital interference resulting in extremely low jitter
    • Coaxial output with a dedicated isolation transformer
    • Low jitter I2S output for professional use

Sampling Rate Converter

    • The sampling rate of CD playback can be up sampled to PCM and DSD, from 44.1kHz to 768kHz or DoP256
    • The conversion is achieved by up-sampling to mega hertz before down converting to the targeted sampling rate with ultra-low jitter and distortion

Power and Mechanical

    • Custom R-type professional transformer with shielding
    • Low power consumption in Standby Mode•
    • NuPrime vibration-free isolation feet
    • High quality aluminium remote control
    • Available in black or silver anodized aluminum finish

NuPrime CDT-8 Pro

After using it for a few weeks, the NuPrime CDT-8 Pro sounds good even with SRC turned off (16/44.1). With SRC on (24/192), without going into audiophile buzzwords, it sounds even better. SRC at DoP 64, makes the music sounds smoother, more natural/less digital!
Ergonomically, it’s a 4.5 stars. I wish there is a number pad on the remote, display could be dimmed/turn off, and the disc tray a little narrower and deeper so it’s easier to place and remove CD.
However since I value sound quality more, 5 stars.

CDT 8

It is a nice transport but does not match up well with my Denafrips dac . At least not through the i2s input . I will look for some AES cables and try that
