As with the other products in the 10 series, Gold Note have managed to pack an incredible amount of performance into a super-small chassis. Expect amazing sound quality, advanced features, and versatility as standard from this handcrafted CD player.
Touchscreen display
The front panel features an ultra-clear and easy-to-read touch display showing all relevant playback information as well as playback controls. The multifunction Gold Note remote control is included and the Gold Note Single Knob Control rotary knob on the front of the panel can also be used to control the unit.
High-end CD mechanism
The CD mechanism is made in Austria by Stream Unlimited, a design specifically developed for high-performance audio applications.
Extremely precise, it extracts the most information from the CD to ensure the highest degree of fidelity, dynamics and musicality.
High-resolution D/A
The D/A conversion is managed by the incredible AK4493, a phenomenal converter made in Japan by AKM. The AK4493 is the DAC of choice for the special alchemy it shows when matched with Gold Note’s discrete component designs, resulting in pure audiophile joy.
Digital inputs and outputs
Equipped with no less than two digital inputs (COAX, TOS), the CD-10 also works as a high-quality DAC, taking full advantage of the musicality of the converter and the analogue stage.
Add two digital outputs (COAX, TOS) as well as balanced and unbalanced analogue outputs and you’ve got yourself an extremely versatile source.
External power supply
In line with their modular philosophy, the CD-10 can also be upgraded with addition of the PSU-10 EVO external power supply. Featuring a dual choke inductive filter to deliver an optimal and clean reserve of current to get the absolute best performance out of your CD-10.
