Introduction

Here now and for the forthcoming decade: The NuPrime CDP-9 is a highly accurate CD player with an integrated high-end DAC and preamp. A 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. The high-performance DAC, together with a selectable sampling rate converter for the digital output (up to 32bit/768kHz and DSD512) converts the CD format to either SPDIF at highest sampling rate or DSD format up to DSD512.

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 and jitter

A Reference Class Preamp

• Advanced, FPGA-implemented, switched-resistor ladder network for controlling volume with a single resistor in the signal path at any volume setting
  • Individually adjustable volume on each input for precise source-level matching

Sampling Rate Converter

• The sampling rate of any digital inputs, including CD playback, can be converted up or down between PCM and DSD, from 44.1kHz to 768kHz or DSD64 to DSD512
• The conversion is achieved by up-sampling to mega hertz before down converting to the targeted sampling rate with ultra-low jitter and distortion
