About the CD2500 MkIV

The Oracle Audio Technologies CD2500 Mk IV is a state-of-the-art CD player designed as a musical instrument to deliver exceptional sound quality and longevity. It features a Burr Brown PCM1792 DAC capable of processing digital data up to 24 bits and 192 kHz, with four independent fully discrete analog modules for each analog signal channel. The player incorporates a massive aluminum floating chassis and a Delrin decoupling system to minimize internal and external vibrations, along with a unique suspension and disc clamping system adapted from Oracle's analog turntables. It offers analog outputs via RCA and balanced XLR connectors, a digital input supporting high-resolution formats including 24/192 WAV, and a single BNC digital output. The power supply is housed externally for improved sound quality. The CD2500 Mk IV is praised for its detailed sound reproduction, dynamic range, and analog-like realism, making it suitable as a reference DAC for other digital sources.
