Denon are well known for it home cinema and high end audio products but it has been a while since they have released a high end mini system. The new Denon RDC CXI has technology, directly derived from Denon’s flagship products, to deliver truly stunning sound. The RCD-CX1 inherits its amplifier circuit, power circuit, CD mechanism, and audio circuit from the high-end CX1 series and provides them in a compact unit for ardent music lovers.
Adding to the overall quality of the system is a pair of impressive loudspeakers. The SC-CX101 speakers are beautifully finished in a natural real wood. A newly developed glass fibre dual layer driver and die-cast aluminium underframe ensure only the finest audio results.
Total power output is reported to be 150w giving you plenty of power from such a compact unit. Denon’s well-known Advanced S.V.H. (Suppress Vibration Hybrid) mechanism makes for excellent playback quality of music CDs or Super Audio CDs. Furthermore, the RCD-CX1 contains a top grade D/A conversion stage featuring Denon’s exclusive AL24 processing. A built-in radio tuner,and the discrete MM/MC phono pre-amplifier for your favourite records, add to the range of features that also include dock connectivity for iPod and network.
You can add the Denon ASD docking station to the RCD-CX1 allowing you to handle MP3 and WMA media from CD-R/RW as well as Apple iPod archives.
The new Denon CX1 will be available end of August at a suggested retail price of £1299 for the main RCD-CX1 unit and £599 for the SC-CX101 stereo speaker.
