About The Roksan Attessa CD Transport
Optimised to be the perfect partner for your Attessa system, the CD Transport integrates with the Attessa amps to become a single system while breathing new life into your CDs. So you get all the benefits of a cutting-edge Hi-Fi system, like MQA when used with Streaming Amp, plus all the simplicity you could want.
Transport Only, For Your Choice Of DAC Or Digital Amp: As a transport only, the Attessa CD Transport comes without a built-in DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor). This not only saves you money but also gives you the freedom to choose your own DAC or partner the CD transport with an Amplifier/DAC, such as the matching Roksan Attessa amplifiers.
Short Signal Path For Low Jitter: Minimising the length of the signal from the laser means there's less space and time for the signal to denigrate. This means lower levels of jitter for a smoother, less distorted sound. Less distortion means more detail and a more natural, lifelike sound quality.
The Perfect Match For Attessa Amplifiers: Blending seamlessly with the Roksan Attessa amplifiers, the CD Transport looks and works perfectly with either the Attessa Integrated or Streaming Amplifiers. By simply using the MaestroUnite communication between CD and amp, the two units are optimised with one another during set-up. They also make the perfect visual match.
BluOS Control Of The CD Player When Paired With Attessa Streaming Amplifier: When connected to an Attessa Streaming Amplifier you also get the option of BluOS control. This not only lets you control the CD Transport via your smartphone or tablet but also gives you the potential to play CDs in other BluOS compatible music zones.
MQA Playback When Paired With Attessa Streaming Amplifier: Another advantage of pairing the CD Transport with the Attessa Streaming Amplifier is the benefit of MQA playback. MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) playback, as used by the likes of TIDAL Masters, gives top quality sound without data heavy files, making it a popular system with streaming companies.
Seamless Style: With its low profile, wraparound steel lid and anodized aluminium front panel, the Attessa looks as smooth and seamless as it sounds. Available in black or silver finishes, its classic style blends effortlessly with its surroundings. Make your Attessa system even more flexible, by adding the CD Transport.
Our Take
If you want the sleek look that all Roksan products have and you're after CD playback then it is a complete no-brainer to match the Attessa CD Transport with either the Attessa Integrated or Streaming amplifiers. This not only offers the perfect visual match but also leverages the great sounding DAC in these two fine amplifiers. On top of this the Streaming amplifier also offers control of the CD Transport from the BluOS App as well as highest quality MQA playback. Great sound, great looks, great compatibility.
