Vincent Audio CD-S8 HDCD Player
The CD-S8 proudly takes a central position in Vincent’s PremiumLine of hifi components, which is the German Company’s flagship series. At the heart of this player is the Philips VAM1250 CD Drive, known for its excellent optical reading performance, low playback noise, and long life expectancy. The 24-bit DAC is Texas Instrument’s esteemed PM1792 with a 192kHz sampling rate. Its advanced segment DAC architecture achieves excellent dynamic performance and improved tolerance to clock jitter. The output stage of the CD-S8 is a full vacuum tube section rather than a hybrid design. It takes maximum of a pair of 6922 tubes for smooth, rich, analog-like audio. The analog circuitry is housed in a physically separated section of the chassis and shielded from the digital and power supply circuitry. This no-compromise approach keeps noise out of the signal chain and helps maintain signal purity. A dedicated headphone stage with volume control lets you enjoy the Vincent’s sumptuous output in a private listening setting.
