First class debut

摘要

If you doubt that compact disc will remain the dominant playback source for the foreseeable future, the CD-only player before me should rattle your cage. It comes from one of Europe's canniest operators - retailer extraordinaire Peter Lyngdorf. You know his manufacturing efforts from the truly pioneering TacT digital amplifiers and processors. TacT has now metamorphosed into the eponymous brand that produces the CD-1, and-trust me - Lyngdorf wouldn't have OK'd a player this sophisticated if he had any insecurities about the format. He would have badge-engineered some Pacific Rim poo-poo and left it at that. No, the CD-1 is a statement of audiophilic intent, for this is one fine-sounding disc spinner.
