Rotel CD11 mkII Black
Rotel's CD11 Tribute CD player was engineered with hands-on support from audio legend Ken Ishiwata utilizing a custom selection of acoustically tuned components delivering an even higher level of performance and acoustic clarity standing ready to playback the 200+ million CD’s that have been sold over the past 30 years.
Rotel has been designing and manufacturing CD players since the RCD-855 was launched in 1989 and has never looked back since.
Thus, the opportunity of engaging with audio legend Ken Ishiwata to create an even higher performance model of the successful CD11 was eagerly accepted by the Rotel design teams. With over 40 years of audio engineering experience Ken’s collaboration with Rotel created something truly special – the CD11 Tribute edition.
The CD11 Tribute includes critical changes to the power supply, DAC circuits and precise selection of components in the audio signal path delivering an increased sense of space, improved accuracy, detail, and genuineness of the audio.
Supporting RCA analog and coaxial digital outputs, front panel display and a remote control, the CD11 Tribute continues the proud tradition of Rotel and is reflective of the legacy of Ken and his tireless efforts delivering audio products preforming well beyond their price point.

Rotel CD14 mkII Black
Enjoy your CD collection investment with Rotel’s CD14 compact disc player. As with all 14 series components, it features a high performance power supply and intuitive operation.
In 1989, Rotel confirmed its digital audio expertise with the launch of the RCD-855 CD player. The press was overwhelming in its praise, one critic going so far as to call it “The steal of the century”, and since then Rotel has never looked back.
The CD14 design begins with a carefully engineered power supply to ensure separate, ripple-free voltage and current to both digital and analogue circuits. It maintains the same clean lines and intuitive operation as the other 14 series models, while demonstrating an uncanny ability to resolve even the smallest musical details in a recording.

Marantz CD6007 Black
CD Player
Improving upon the award-winning CD6006, the finely-tuned CD6007 CD Player offers even more specially-selected components and an enhanced circuit layout. Rigid feet further eliminate unwanted vibration while the oversized low noise power supply feeds the digital and analogue circuitry of the player.
The new, high-quality AK4490 DAC along with 2 selectable filter options converts digital signals to analogue, this is then ‘pushed’ to the gold-plated synch outputs by Marantz’s proprietary small signal amplifier, the HDAM-SA2. In addition, we have included a new remote that also controls the fitting PM6007 amplifier. The CD6007 features a newly-developed, sophisticated headphone amplifier with a headphone amp gain setting to accommodate a wide range of headphones.
Marantz HDAM Technology
Marantz developed its own discrete circuit boards to replace standard ICs. These HDAMs consist of discrete surface mount components with short mirror image L/R signal paths. These devices do exactly the same thing as the widely used Op-Amps but outperform these designs dramatically in terms of the Slew Rate and reduced noise level, resulting in more dynamic, accurate and detailed sound. In the CD6007, the proprietary HDAM-SA2 circuit improves on its previous HDAM module for an even more stable power supply. The idling current stability is less influenced by power transistor temperatures to maintain sound performance even at high level output.
Reference Quality D/A Conversion
The CD6007 features a new Hi-Res D/A conversion. It is equipped with a reference class AK4490 D/A converter, offering two selectable filter options, and provides up to 192-kHz/24-bit and DSD 5.6MHz resolution for optimum musical fidelity with tight bass, pleasant mids and smooth extended highs for CD playback and Hi-Res formats from USB memory devices.
High Current Power Supply
The audio power supply employs high speed, high current Shottky Barrier Diodes and new higher value current storage capacitors compared to the previous model. The size of the power supply capacitors has been increased by 120% for improved current stability and reduced AC noise during high demanding listening sessions.
Headphone Amplifier with HDAM-SA2 and Headphone Amp Gain Setting (Low/Mid/High)
Compared to the CD6006, the CD6007 offers an improved and redesigned headphone amplifier section. The CD6007 inherits the exclusive Marantz HDAM-SA2 circuit with three gain settings (Low/Mid/High) for a perfect match with almost any brand of headphones for an optimal solo listening experience. However, if you prefer, the headphone amp is also equipped with an “Off Circuit” function that automatically turns off the headphone amplifier when a headphone is not connected to the unit to avoid any unwanted interference or noise.
Plays Hi-Res Audio
The CD6007 can playback MP3, WMA, AAC and WAV, FLAC HD, ALAC, AIFF (up to 192-kHz/24-bit) and DSD (up to 5.6MHz) files from a connected USB storage device.
Digital Filter
The CD6007 introduces a new selectable digital filter option. This two-mode filter (Filter1/Filter2) allows optimized reproduction of digital music content using the new AK4490 D/A converter to your taste. Filter 1 is a slow roll-off preset that improves deep stereo imaging while Filter 2 is a sharp roll-off filter for more precise imaging reproduction.
The Most Musical Sound
Engineered and extensively tuned by a team drawing on more than 65 years of Hi-Fi expertise, the CD6007 provides exceptional performance for your audio collection. Whether digital or analogue, enjoy the most musical sound from any source.

The Musical Fidelity B1xcd is a CD player for music lovers who want genuine high-end performance from their collection without spending a fortune. Like the matching B1xi integrated amplifier, it is designed in true Musical Fidelity high-end philosophy at a far more accessible price.
From the fine fit and finish of its metal casework to the technology inside, the B1xcd exceeds expectations. Its purpose-built tray-loading mechanism and BlueTiger™ CD-88 servo system ensure precise disc reading. The LCD display clearly shows track, time and CD Text where available. It offers analogue RCA outputs, while coaxial and optical digital outputs allow connection to an external DAC.
True Red Book CD player
The Red Book standard specifies the physical parameters and properties of digital audio CDs (CD-DA). Dedicated CD players, unlike DVD or Blu-ray players, frequently play stereo CDs better. The B1xcd drive is optimised for 1:1 playback of audio CDs, protected by a robust metal cover and mounted to minimise vibration, dramatically reducing jitter and extraneous noise.
The Musical Fidelity identity
Engineered with meticulous attention to detail, the B1xcd combines a high-quality CD-DA transport, an industry-leading servo system and state-of-the-art DAC circuitry to extract every nuance from your CDs with exceptional precision. Whether you are rediscovering a cherished collection or embracing physical music ownership, it delivers a warm, natural and engaging sound that blends outstanding resolution with analogue-like musicality.
High-end sound at an accessible price
The Musical Fidelity B-Line became an icon of the 1980s by bringing genuine high-end engineering to more accessible prices. After its return in 2025 with the B1xi amplifier, the B1xcd is the next step: a CD player that matches the B1xi perfectly, visually and sonically, completing an elegant system.
BlueTiger™ CD-88 servo
A CD drive is only as good as the servo controlling it. The B1xcd uses the new BlueTiger™ CD-88 by SUOS, a refinement of the CD-80 board with advanced error correction and predictive algorithms. Digital audio is not "just ones and zeroes": disc damage, read errors or vibration can corrupt data. The CD-88 ensures perfect playback every time.
