CYRUS CD8SE CD PLAYER
From: £799.00
Click here to buy from Hifix or to find out more... The Cyrus CD 8 SE incorporates the same low-contact precision slot loading CD drive as the Cyrus CD Xt SE transport. The CD 8 SE also benefits from our latest Servo Evolution optical data control systems that greatly improve the integrity of the data we read from the CD. Internally the power supply design features twin, custom made, transformers each feeding individual highly regulated power supplies which in turn feed the 11 separate sections of the player. The new Cyrus CD 8 SE builds on the design features established by the award-winning Cyrus CD8, by adding further enhancements made available by the technology of the high-end DAC X D/A Converter. Also the Servo Evolution circuitry and our precision slot-loading CD drive help to make this our best integrated CD player yet. Powered by twin toroidal power transformers, an extensive array of selected reservoir capacitors and a bank of power regulators, the new Servo Evolution stage takes the audio performance of the CD 8 SE to a new level for a single box Cyrus CD player. The CD 8 SE is included in the established Cyrus program for product upgrades and is PSX-R compatible. CD6(s) and CD8 owners can also return their players to the Cyrus factory for an upgrade to full CD 8 SE specification. The Cyrus CD 8 SE's outstanding performance can be expanded further by adding a Cyrus PSX-R power supply, which will help reveal subtle details within the recording; this has to be heard to be full appreciated. When used as an integrated CD player the specially developed DAC circuitry provides outstanding performance. When partnered with our optional DAC X component, the CD 8 SE then operates as a CD transport. Returning the CD 8 SE to Cyrus for upgrade to the dedicated CD transport, CD Xt SE, allows you to move up to one of the finest CD systems in the world. However configured, this player will produce stunning performance and, with the right speakers, an almost holographic 3D image. Cyrus' CD platform is a valuable example of Cyrus' upgrade philosophy. Our systems are designed to grow with our customer's enthusiasm for musical advancement and through a series of affordable upgrades, all the way up, to the ultimate X series. Packed into the stylish, compact chassis of the Cyrus CD 8 SE are two completely separate toroidal power transformers. One transformer has two entirely separate secondary windings dedicated to feeding the electronics of the disc-reading mechanism and the current hungry motors. The second power transformer, also with two windings, is dedicated to supplying DAC & filter stages. The transformer pair are housed in the forward section of the chassis to minimise interaction with the sensitive analogue output stage. In true Cyrus style the PSX-R power supply may also be connected to further refine the power supply system and take over power supply to the motors. The unique MC-Bus connectivity of the CD 8 SE is in keeping with the total system approach of the Cyrus range of products. This facility enhances ergonomic operation of the unit in a system context. Total automation of the test, alignment and calibration of the CD 8 SE is facilitated via the MC-Bus during its manufacturing process, eliminating potential human error- Specifically developed for audio data standards
- Up to 5 times fewer data errors
- Less dependent upon error correction
- Better signal to noise ratio
- Improved laser control accuracy
- Upgrade path from recent Cyrus CD players
- The attached PDF file which is available for download shows eye patterns resolving pits on the Cyrus CD8x against the new Cyrus SE player, it graphically explains just how much better the new Cyrus SE model is.

CYRUS CD6SE CD PLAYER
From: £599.00
Click here to buy from Hifix or to find out more... It has always been our guiding principle that technologies developed for the Cyrus X series should trickle down to the other ranges. However this year we have developed a new optical servo system that significantly improves the data performance. Normally this type of engineering would be only found in our most expensive models but we have been able to use this circuitry throughout the CD range to replace the loader and laser elements we previously bought-in. As a result, the Cyrus CD 6 SE design takes the fundamentals of last years award winning Cyrus CD8x and adds to this key elements of the new precision slot loading CD drive and the superb SE optical control systems. The result is a special CD player for its price class, benefiting from unusually advanced servo technology and a new slot loading system. The Cyrus CD 6 SE benefits from the same high specification 24bit differential DAC as the CD 8 SE (although not in a fully balanced topology) and shares much of the CD 8 SE power supply technology (but with a single power transformer, rather than the twin transformer design of the CD 8 SE). The performance of the resulting player has far exceeded our expectations, and is the perfect partner for the highly-rated Cyrus 6vs2 amplifier. Furthermore, the Cyrus CD 6 SE owner can optionally return their player to the Cyrus factory for upgrade to full CD 8 SE specification. Whilst the Cyrus CD 6 SE is a simpler design than the CD 8 SE, it shares many aspects of the CD 8 SE circuit topology. This is particularly evident in the quality of components used in the power supply, DAC and analogue filter stages. This level of component quality is unusual in a CD player in this class and is an essential part of the winning formula necessary to deliver musical and technical performance to the exacting standards demanded by the Cyrus team The power supply circuitry of the Cyrus CD 6 SE is driven from a high-grade toroidal transformer with two separate secondary windings. With this configuration it is possible to provide completely isolated power supplies for the differing power requirements of the digital and analogue sections of the player. 11 stages of power regulation provide further stage isolation and the best possible environment for the sensitive analogue stages to work in. Cyrus products have always delivered sonic excellence hand-in-hand with state-of-the-art technical performance. The Cyrus CD 6 SE is no exception and Cyrus is justifiably proud of the measured performance of the CD 6 SE. With ruler-flat linearity performance, exceptionally low background noise and superb jitter rejection the CD 6 SE is technically superior in its class. The unique MC-Bus connectivity of the CD 6 SE is in keeping with the total system approach of the Cyrus range of products. This facility enhances ergonomic operation of the unit in a system context. Total automation of the test, alignment and calibration of the CD 6 SE is managed via the MC-Bus coms ports during its manufacturing process, eliminating potential human error.- Cyrus CD 6 SE design takes the fundamentals of last years award winning Cyrus CD8x
