Crafted for audiophiles who prefer the tactile experience and sonic purity of physical media, the NuPrime CDT-9 Digital CD Transport is a precision-engineered solution for extracting high-fidelity digital audio from compact discs. Ideal for two-channel reference systems and DAC-driven setups, the CDT-9 delivers low-jitter, bit-perfect digital output with the flexibility to interface with a wide range of external converters. Its solid aluminum chassis and disc-loading mechanism reflect NuPrime’s commitment to performance, durability, and clean signal paths.

At its core, the CDT-9 employs a premium Philips CD-9 servo mechanism optimized for accurate disc reading and reduced error correction, preserving the integrity of the original recording. Digital output options include AES/EBU, coaxial, optical, and I²S over HDMI, allowing users to match the transport to high-end DACs and processors with ease. An integrated SRC (Sample Rate Converter) enables real-time upsampling to 384kHz or DSD128 via the I²S output, delivering exceptional detail retrieval and dynamic range. Its isolated power supply and vibration-reducing construction further support ultra-low-noise operation.
