Follow on Google News | Perreaux Launches New Compact Disc TransportNew Zealand high-end audio amplifier manufacturer Perreaux proudly announces the launch of the new éloquence CDt compact disc transport.
A CD transport behaves exactly like a normal CD player - but instead of the audio output being an analogue signal, it outputs the digital data from the disc and requires an external digital-to-analogue converter (DAC). The CDt is the perfect partner for the éloquence 150i or 250i integrated amplifiers, and is designed to complement and seamlessly integrate with their onboard 24-bit/192kHz upsampling DAC. “As a dedicated CD platform, the éloquence CDt captures the heart and soul of the 16-bit/44.1kHz CD format,” says Perreaux Managing Director, Martin van Rooyen, “revealing the full potential of the humble compact disc.” The CDt features transformer coupled BNC and RCA outputs, as well as an optical TOSLINK output, to transmit the 16-bit/44.1kHz SPDIF digital signal. Separate digital interface transmitters ensure each digital output is optimized to keep interface induced jitter at a minimum. The custom-designed toroid power transformer and regulated power supplies, along with judicious power supply filtering, keeps unwanted noise from affecting sensitive clock signals and minimizes noise related jitter. The éloquence CDt is smart-home ready with full control via the RS232 serial port, trigger input & output and infrared (IR) input & output on the rear of the unit. Solid construction and build-quality has always been a Perreaux hallmark, the éloquence CDt is no exception; the robust chassis design, 18mm thick milled aluminum front panel and unique surface finish exudes luxury and quality that will last a lifetime. The éloquence CDt is priced at $4,495 USD and is available now from hi fi dealers throughout the world.

The early 80’s saw Perreaux explode onto the US market with the SM2 Stereo Preamplifier and PMF2150B Stereo Power Amplifier. This combination captured the imagination of world markets and word started to spread as the audio press started recognizing this hitherto unknown company called Perreaux. In 1991 Perreaux re-located their factory to Auckland, New Zealand, enabling them to utilize the increased resources that Auckland had to offer over Napier. While in Auckland Perreaux continued to develop products including the acclaimed Reference Series, popular E-Series and prestigious Radiance R200i. Perreaux moved to Dunedin, New Zealand, in 2005 (which is where the engineering team and factory is still based) and they remain as passionate and committed as those first days in 1974. Perreaux continues to develop some of the finest sounding audio components available in the world today and is sold in over 30 countries worldwide. End
