With an almost identical form-factor and operational interface, the D1.5 continues the established CH aesthetic, fitting in perfectly with existing and future systems. However, internally it is a completely different machine, based around our own, all-new, proprietary transport mechanism.
- In-house designed and built Mechanically Optimized Reading System (MORSe) disc transport. Massive, ultra-rigid construction, with precision, mounted and critically suspended motor and laser assembly.
- CH Link HD, AES/EBU, S/PDIF, and TosLink digital outputs mounted as standard.
- Fully compatible with SACD, CD, and MQA CD discs.
- Optional dual-mono DACs and Sync IO board allow users to specify or adapt the unit for uses as a transport or player, with or without external clocking.
- On-board decoding now employs a state-of-the-art PEtER spline filter algorithm for CD Replay.
Users can configure digital outputs to optimize replay of MQA discs with an external MQA capable DAC, avoiding on-the-fly sample-rate switching.
