CD21 COMPACT DISC PLAYER USER GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Primare CD21 Compact Disc Player! 
This chapter introduces you to its key features, and ex-
plains how you can use it to achieve superb sound from 
your CD collection.

Every component of the CD21, from the CD transport to 

the audio output stage, has been designed to achieve the 

highest possible audio performance.

Top of the range Ultra Silent transport mechanism

The Primare CD21 Compact Disc Player uses an advan-

ced DVS mechanism. A precision crystal clock oscillator is 

used in addition to the use of jitter correction Burr-Brown 

DIR1703 to ensure low jitter, for excellent audio perfor-

mance.

Precision digital to analogue conversion

Digital to analogue conversion is performed by two 24 bit 

Burr-Brown PCM 1738 D/A converter and fi lter, capable 

of handling up to 24 bit input data at a 96kHz sampling 

rate.  They are confi gured in an internally balanced topo-

logy to perform a THD cancellation process. In addition 

to providing standard RCA audio outputs the CD21 

includes a gold-plated S/PDIF digital output, an optical 

TOS-link, and advanced AES/EBU.

Welcome to the CD21 Compact Disc Player

No compromise power supply for the highest 

possible performance

The Primare CD21 Compact Disc Player uses eight 
separate isolated power supplies for the digital, analogue 
circuits, and transport mechanism, for maximum 
isolation.  For the analogue part, discrete and ultrafast 
regulation is used.The result is an extremely high signal 
to noise ratio, allowing you to take full advantage of the 
dynamic range possible with CD.

Careful design for mechanical stability

As with all Primare units, the CD21 Compact Disc Player 
is housed in an alloy heavy gauge steel chassis, which pro-
vides strength, rigidity, and screening, while being effective 
at damping vibrations from external sources. The front 
panel design isolates the display circuitry from the audio 
circuitry to avoid interference.
