About the DiVA CD72
The Arcam DiVA CD72 is a stereo compact disc player designed and manufactured in the UK, known for its superb sound quality and robust build. It uses a 24-bit Burr Brown multi-level Delta-Sigma DAC and a proven Sony KSS-213C CD mechanism. Special attention was given to optimizing the master clock for extremely low jitter, and the main circuit board features carefully tuned analogue filters with audiophile-quality components in critical areas. The player includes a large, well-screened power transformer and six separately regulated power supplies. Key components subject to microphonic effects are damped, and the chassis is rigidly constructed with a slab of Sontech sound deadening material to reduce vibrations and improve sound clarity. It offers both optical and coaxial digital outputs for connection to external DACs or digital recorders. The CD72 supports standard CD formats and plays CD-Rs without trouble but does not decode HDCD. It has a clean, boxy design with a green LED display that can be dimmed or disabled via remote control. The unit is upgradable to the CD92 specification by installing an Arcam upgrade kit. It was available in black or silver finishes and weighs 4.6 kg with dimensions of 430 x 290 x 84 mm.
