About the Audio CDT-100
The Shanling CDT-100 is a high-end CD player that combines the warmth of tube amplification with the precision of solid-state technology. It uses four 6N3P tubes, which are compatible with other tubes like the Western Electric 396A and 2C51. The player includes a Philips CDM-1201 transport with a Philips CD7 II servo circuitry, ensuring reliable disc handling. The digital system features four 24-bit Burr Brown PCM1704 DACs, a PDM-200 96kHz HDCD digital filter, and a Crystal CS8420 upsampler for 96kHz upsampling. This setup allows for detailed sound reproduction with a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz and a signal-to-noise ratio of 110dB for the tube output. The player offers adjustable output levels from 0 to 2.2V and has a dynamic range of 115dB. It is praised for its ability to deliver a detailed sonic picture, though some users find it benefits from upgrading the stock tubes for enhanced performance.
