As one of the few specialist companies in the world
to have developed their own CD and DVD players from the ground up, Arcam enjoy
a world wide reputation for music and movie playback. Having produced the
world’s first true audiophile CD player in the late 1980’s, Arcam CD and DVD
players have gone on to set the standards by which competing players are
judged. The new CD37 is the company’s highest performing music player to date.
Using technology from the companies highly revered
DVD players; the CD37 plays both CDs and SACD with astonishing musical
reproduction. Digital to Analogue conversion is carried out by the very latest
Wolfson 8741 DACs using pure DSD conversion unleashing the full resolution of
SACD discs for with starling clarity.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI), which would
normally mask fine details in similar players, is dramatically reduced using
Arcam’s proprietary “Mask of Silence” strategy. The use of “Stealth Mat”
(unique metal fibre matting) further diffuses EMI to ensure the every nuance
of each recording is heard in its full glory.
The CD37s power supply features two separate toroid
transformers, one each for audio and digital circuits. The chassis itself
features a damped “Sound Dead Steel” construction virtually eliminating
mechanical influences on the electronics.
As part of Arcam’s FMJ line of high performance
separates, the CD37 is an ideal partner for the new A38 integrated amplifier
or C31 pre-amp and P38 power amp combination.
