Quad Elite CDX digital pre-amplifier
Following on the success of Quad’s Elite CDP, the Elite CDX is a brand new integrated CD Player/Pre-Amplifier/DAC in Quad’s highly regarded Elite series. Built around the same Crystal 24bit/192kHz DAC found in Quad’s flagship Platinum DMP, the CDX Quad engineers have integrated a high end asynchronous USB input to the existing Elite Series DAC.
Elite CDX continues the tradition Quad has established as being one of the premiere solutions for playing digital audio files whether they be from a CD or computer, with users now able to stream their 24bit/192kHz audio files via USB direct from a PC or Mac without the need for an external USB to S/PDIF converter, and also allowing them to take full advantage of Quad’s award winning digital-to-analogue conversion circuitry.
The addition of a USB input does not come at the expense of other connectivity as along with the built-in CD player functions the Elite CDX also includes 3 x TosLink Optical and 2 x 75 Ohm Coaxial inputs, as well as a TosLink Optical output, the proprietary Quadlink connection which is used for unified system control of other Elite Series components and both fixed and variable analogue Pre-Amplifier outputs.
