Get Maximum Realism from Your CDs

Enjoy your CDs as they were meant to be heard, exactly as the artist originally intended them to sound.

Remember when the public all but gave up on LPs until Pro-Ject spearheaded the vinyl revival with its brilliant line of turntables?

The same thing is currently happening to compact discs, thanks to Pro-Ject’s commitment to providing the ultimate CD ‘turntable’ that audiophiles have been waiting for. And you ain’t heard nothin’ yet until you’ve experienced the sonic glory of “Red Book” CDs with the Pro-Ject CD Box DS2 T dedicated transport.

Blu-Ray Players Aren’t Really Meant for CDs

Don’t expect your universal Blu-ray disc player to bring out the best in your CDs. Universal disc players are designed to do many things well, but they don’t have the dedicated circuitry to excel with the unique requirements of compact disc playback. They typically cut corners and make compromises.

In contrast to DVD or Blu-ray Disc players, a ‘pure’ CD player is usually better with CDs. But for top-drawer compact disc performance beyond compare, there is no substitute for using a dedicated CD transport plus a high quality DAC. That’s the way to get maximum realism from your CDs, and Pro-Ject has come up with the transport of your dreams.

A Pure Audio CD Transport

The Pro-Ject CD Box DS2 T is designed exclusively as a pure audio CD transport, sending digital “Red Book standard” signals to your own external DAC (not included). The CD Box DS2 T is a true master of its trade. In addition to providing the highest quality sound, it uses a durable drive that’s essential for the perfect CD playback. For best performance, Pro-Ject houses its CD drives in vibration-resistant cabinets, so that external resonance doesn’t intrude upon your musical pleasure.

The Big Transport-Only Plus

And here’s a big plus to jumping onboard a ‘separates’ CD playback system that uses a dedicated transport and an outboard DAC instead of combining them both in a single chassis. If you’ve been checking the Audio Advisor catalog and website for any length of time, you’ll notice that DAC technology continues to advance at a rapid rate, requiring equipment upgrades if you want to stay on top of the best possible sound.

Pro-Ject has nailed the CD transport with its CD Box DS2 T, so you won’t be seeing a similar transport upgrade for a good long time to come, if at all. That makes the DS2 T a great investment as a rock solid, state-of-the-art transport system which you can get the most out of at any time by using it with the latest cutting-edge DAC of your choice – without having to switch out the transport mechanism like you would with a ‘one-box’ CD player.

Real-Time Scanning

Pro-Ject’s servo system allows real-time scanning with minimal jitter. Pro-Ject decided to make its newest generation CD Box a pure transport, because ideally the DAC electronics and the CD drive should be separated from each other to realize the best possible sound signature.

Capabilities and Convenience Features

The CD Box DS2T excels with CD, CD-R, CD-RW, and Hybrid-SACD discs. Its complement of digital outputs consists of 1 x co-axial (S/PDIF), 1 x optical (S/PDIF), and 1 x XLR (AES/EBU).

For convenient operation, a wireless remote control is included. You can also operate the unit via the front panel controls. A rear panel 12-volt trigger in/out makes for easy system integration.

Enjoy your CDs at a new level by using the CD Box DS2T with any advanced D/A converter, such as Pro-Ject’s DAC Box DS2 Ultra. Together, these components achieve high end sound reproduction that simply can’t be found anywhere in this price range.
