Every part of this CD player has been designed with absolute quality as the main concern, be that the power stage, all the way through to the analogue output. This CD player has been designed not only to deliver an audiophile quality experience, but with its simple and quick setup and ease of user control, the CDi is a high end CD player that will introduce even newcomers to the wonders of Hi-Fi.

The CDi contains many of the same components that can be found in the previous CD Xt Signature. This includes the latest generation LED disc loader, a quiet and low contact mechanism that will greatly improve upon more traditional tray loading methods. The use of high end components in these products enables the Cyrus range to outperform any other similar product in its price range.

With Servo Evolution technology included, the CDi's SE platform has been specifically engineered to retrieve data from your audio CDs whilst encountering far fewer errors than other players. Provision of ideal data output for Hi-Fi, the Servo Evolution technology will control the whole electromechanical servo system, which in turn will provide much better quality audio than can be found with other conventional drives.

A 32-bit Digital to Analogue Converter is included in the Cyrus CDi, providing it with all of the capacity that is needed to convert complex loads into full analogue output. Following on from the Cyrus trickle down approach, the DAC used in this player is the same DAC that can also be found in the Cyrus DAC XP Signature. The 32-bit DAC will allow for a range of improvements, including even greater detail retrieval and sonic resolution.

Further improvements can be made to your system through the connection of Cyrus' PSX-R2 external power supply. The addition of this power supply will drastically decrease the strain on the units internal power supply. With twin analogue outputs and two digital outputs, the CDi will fit into a variety of setups.

Tannoy Revolution XT6F Speakers

RRP: £999.98 SAVE: £300.98

Our Price: £699.00

The smaller of two prestigious floorstanding models in the Revolution XT range, the Revolution XT 6F is a compact loudspeaker that delivers a dynamic full-range performance. Its 150mm (6.00") Omnimagnet Dual Concentric driver is augmented with a matching 150mm (6.00") bass driver to deliver LF extension down to below 40Hz. Both the Omnimagnet Dual, with its 25mm Linear PEI dome HF unit and Torus-Ogive waveguide, and the auxiliary driver feature a multi-fibre cone with rubber surround and a 44mm edge wound voice coil to ensure seamless bass performance. The Revolution XT 6F crossover uses low loss laminated core inductors and audiophile components throughout and further benefits from high purity oxygen free copper (OFC), silver-plated wiring.

The 31.1 litre Revolution XT 6F cabinet utilises the most compact iteration of Tannoy new twin-cavity coupled reflex system, featuring separate cavities coupled internally by tuned ports. Bass energy exits from a down-firing port between the angled base of the cabinet and the integrated plinth. The precisely engineered angle of the 'waveguide' formed between cabinet and plinth encourages LF energy to disperse forward into the room, making closer-to-wall placement of the speaker than is typically possible without major detrimental effect on sound quality. The result is tight and articular bass with exceptional power and extension whatever you room layout or loudspeaker placement requirements.

Each Revolution XT 6F cabinet is offered in Medium Oak or Dark Walnut real wood veneer, hand finished to the same exacting standards expected of bespoke cabinetry. The Omnimagnet driver is finished with an etched trim ring and driver bolts that contrast the black driver chassis. For a more subtle aesthetic, magnetic grille mounts are installed below the veneer to ensure a smooth and uncluttered appearance on the front baffle and easy fitment of the supplied grille. Revolution XT 6F is Tannoy's most affordable Dual Concentric floorstanding loudspeaker, yet offers the unrivalled performance and outstanding finish that Tannoy owners have come to expect.

Sennheiser Orpheus IE 800 Earphones

RRP: £599.99 SAVE: £150.99

Our Price: £449.00

At the very heart of the IE 800 are several small but invaluable technical breakthroughs, like the perfected extra wide band (XWB) transducer system. Flaunting a diameter of only 7 mm, it is currently the smallest extra wide-band sound transducer available in dynamic ear canal phones and promises distortion-free sound, capable of performing even at high sound pressure levels and extremely deep, distortion-free bass.

Sennheiser Orpheus IE800 in-ear Headphones are loaded with numerous ground-breaking innovations. Designed, developed and produced in Germany, it not only boasts innovative technology but also feature an attractive, yet modern and elegant design. Until now, ear-canal headphones have had a reputation for limited audio quality when compared with much larger high-end headphones, with the technology within the IE 800's that is now definitely in the past, you only have to listen to these ground breaking headphones and you will appreciate the difference immediately.

By using Sennheiser' s patented dual-chamber absorber they have, for the first time, been able to overcome a sound quality affecting problem known as the 'masking effect'. "The human ear is unable to perceive low-volume frequency components of a sound if there are much louder sounds occurring in a lower frequency range at the same time, this means that very loud low-frequency sounds will 'mask' very quiet sounds in the medium frequency range. This is particularly apparent in in-ear headphones. The sealing of the ear canal by the earphones normally causes resonances that result in a peak in the 7kHz to 8kHz range. This has the effect of masking the actual higher-frequency components. Precisely this problem has been overcome in the IE 800 by the use of an absorber." By absorbing the energy of the resonance, it prevents any unwanted peaks and allows all frequency components - even the finest nuances - in the music material to become audible.

Audioquest DragonFly Red USB DAC

£169.00

The Audioquest DragonFly Red USB DAC is the new addition in the DragonFly range and has a lot of improvements compared to the previous model. One of the biggest additions is the ability for it to work with Apple and Android phones and tablets due to an array of new parts and technology. To connect to Apple devices all you need is Apple's Lightning to USB camera adapter and for Android you need an OTG adapter which Audioquest manufacture called the DragonTail.

Inside a DAC is an input processor called a USB microcontroller and for the DragonFly Red Audioquest worked extremely closely with Microchip Technology to design and make a new high performance full speed microcontroller that not only significantly lowers power consumption but also improves on the signal to noise ratio.

For the DAC chip itself Audioquest decided to limit the processing to 24-bit/96kHz and they did that for a couple of reasons, one reason being that it is fully compatible with PC's as you don't have to download and install new drivers. Another reason and a more important one is that faster processing can mean more noise so even though some extremely high end DACs with the best components do offer an incredible sound quality, many DACs can actually sound better when they have been down-sampled by the computer from 24/192 to 24/96 before then sending the data onto the DAC. This means that whether the music is being played from Spotify, YouTube, Tidal, ripped CD's or Hi-res files, the DragonFly is designed to get the best out of it.

The DragonFly Red features an improved 32-bit ESS Sabre 9016 DAC chip with minimum-phase filtering which allows a more natural, detailed sound. It includes the latest ES headphone amp and a bit-perfect digital volume control that exists on the actual chip itself which then allows a better sound quality that more dynamic and a better signal to noise ratio. The bit-perfect digital volume control is better compared to a digital volume control because the DragonFly red doesn't compromise the signal, doesn't reduce finesse and subtlety and low-level detail.

2.1 volts is the output power (compared to the 1.8V on previous DragonFly models) which is perfectly enough to easily drive all preamplifier input circuits and an even wider range of headphones that include very power hungry units. If you want to hear each instrument clearer and in a wider space then this is the DAC for you. Software updates for the DragonFly Red are rolled out through the free Windows and OS X desktop applications so even when music player applications, streaming protocols or other associated software have new developments and features you won't miss out on any of it.

Play all music files: MP3 to high-res
Compatible with Apple and Windows PCs, as well as iOS and Android devices (requires Apple Camera Adapter or Made for Android/OTG adaptor)

The DragonFly Black features an improved 32-bit ESS Sabre 9010 DAC chip with minimum-phase filtering which allows a more natural, detailed sound. It also uses the exact same high quality headphone amplifier and analog volume control that was used in the hugely popular DragonFly 1.2. They chose to go with the analog volume control because it's a better sounding approach than most digital controls which tend to cuts bits off to reduce the volume.

1.2 volts is the output power which is perfectly enough to easily drive all preamplifier input circuits and most if not all relatively efficient headphones. Software updates for the DragonFly Black are rolled out through the free Windows and OS X desktop applications so even when music player applications, streaming protocols or other associated software have new developments and features you won't miss out on any of it.

Chord Clearway Speaker Cable Per Metre

£10.00

The Chord Clearway speaker cable refines 30 years of Chord know-how into a ground-breaking, highly affordable new speaker cable. The Chord Company Clearway speaker cable borrows key ideas from Chord's recent development projects.

The Chord Clearway speaker cable features two contra-wound high-density foil shields. Like many Chord speaker cables, the twin foils, combined with the twisted-pair configuration, make for a level of shielding that is effective to high frequencies. Finally, a clear protective PVC jacket is applied, which again serves to further reduce any mechanically induced noise

During the development of the Chord Company's Clearway speaker cable, valuable research was carried out in relation to the behaviour of conductors and different dielectrics (insulation). For a long time, the Chord Company have understood the importance of the relationship between conductor materials and insulation, and its silver-plated speaker cables make extensive use of PTFE as an insulation material.

The type of insulation doesn't just affect a cable's ability to carry signals accurately; it also has an effect on the tonal characteristics that the cable brings to the system. This often takes the form of an unwanted increase in bass frequencies, which directly limits a system's ability to produce music with coherence and involvement.

Typically, cables that use oxygen-free copper as a conductor material will use either polyethylene or PVC as an insulating material. What sets The Chord Company's Clearway speaker cable apart is its use of FEP: a derivative of PTFE with very similar performance characteristics. Compared to polyethylene, the FEP-insulated Clearway carries both detail and dynamic information markedly more accurately. The tonal properties of the cable are also considerably more neutral.

The FEP-insulated conductors are built from multi-strand oxygen-free copper and are arranged in a twisted-pair configuration to reduce interference. The two conductors are then protected with a layer of soft PVC (which was chosen over polyethylene because of its flexibility), in order to correctly space the shielding in relation to the conductors and to minimise any mechanically induced noise.
