Description below: Editors Choice Award – The Absolute SoundA Must Audition CD PlayerWho says CD playback is dead? You certainly never heard that from Bryston. Although high resolution digital downloads dominate the attention of audiophiles, many music lovers have hundreds or thousands of CDs that require the finest playback equipment to sound their best.You may think youve got your CDs taken care of if youve got a Blu-ray player or DVD player. But thats not the case. Though universal disc players can indeed play back CDs, they certainly wont resolve the full dynamic range and nuance that the medium is capable of. Owing to their design, universal disc players inherently compromise CD playback to support additional AV formats.The BCD-3 doesnt try to be universal. Like other Bryston premium quality audio components, the BCD-3 was engineered for one purpose, and one purpose only. Its been designed explicitly for the purpose of making your redbook CDs sound amazing. And it succeeds by exceeding your expectations about how great this format can sound.At The Top Of My ListThe BCD-3 was honored with an Editors Choice Award in a January 3, 2019 post for The Absolute Sound magazine. You really do have what could be your last CD player, notes Alan Taffel. If I were choosing a CD player that wouldn’t break the bank but was unflinching in its musical and sonic generosity, the BCD-3 would be at the top of my list.A must audition, proclaims Andre Marc in his Audio Video Revolution (avrev.com) review for January 10, 2017. The Bryston BCD-3 is the most natural, unmechanical, distortion-free CD player I have encountered. If the format is in decline, it is not because of sound quality. Properly mastered discs produced with care sound sensational on the Bryston.Zero Jitter, Superb Linearity, And The Best Sound Quality CDs Have To OfferDigital audio information thats read from your compact disc is sent to a dual-balanced DAC chipset where it is converted to analog. The output stage is built with Brystons proprietary fully balanced Class A discrete operational amplifiers. A professional grade optical disc transport reads the discs, and an ultra-precise master clock synchronizes both. The DACs and the disc transport system slave to a single master clock for jitter free performance. The AKM digital-to-analog converters are based on the acclaimed design of Brystons BDA-3 stand-alone DAC.Zero jitter, superb linearity, and the best sound quality CDs have to offer are hallmarks of the new Bryston BCD-3. Connect the BCD-3 to your home network to control it with Brystons web-based user interface or with a home automation system. You can also control it via IR using the included Bryston remote control.Outputs And Control ConnectionsThe BCD-3 boasts a comprehensive set of analog and digital outputs. On the analog side, it offers a pair of unbalanced RCA and balanced XLR outs. On the digital side, it provides S/PDIF RCA and AES/EBU XLR. For control it includes Ethernet, USB-A, IR, DC, and RS-232 connections.
