Product Information

Rewarding Performance

You’ve spent years collecting CDs, so why not give them the CX sound upgrade too? CXC is a CD transport that’s designed to work with DACs and compatible amps – like our award-winning CXA81. You’ll hear incredible detail from your discs, possibly for the first time. CXC breathes new life into CDs – giving you many more years of enjoyment from them.
 

Features

  • New CX Black Edition now available
  • High quality audio CD transport for detailed playback of music CDs
  • Custom designed S3 Servo perfect disc speed & error free playback 
  • Digital only S/PDIF Coaxial & Optical output for pure digital audio signal  
  • Gapless playback ideal for classical pieces & DJ mixes 
  • Acoustically dampened metal chassis isolates components for peak performance 

Do One Thing Well

There’s a complete purity of purpose to CXC. It’s built to read the digital audio information on CDs with absolute accuracy and consistency. It then passes that signal on to a DAC, like our DacMagic 200M or the high-quality DACs found in CX amplifiers. Each component in CXC is focused on performing this task with precision.

Precision Driving 

The disc drive in CXC was originally designed by our engineers for our high-end CD players. The renowned S3 Servo is no multi-purpose disc drive. By spinning audio CDs at the exact speed required for data retrieval, it provides CXC with award-winning sonic precision and stability. 

Let’s Get Physical

CXC benefits from an acoustically dampened metal chassis. It ensures that external forces don’t interfere with the digital signal. CXC has a choice of S/PDIF digital outputs – one coax, the other optical. Pick the one that best suits your DAC, be that a standalone unit or one integrated into an amplifier.

Complete Control

CXC comes with a remote control, so you can choose exactly what to listen to. And all CX Series remotes can control every CX component, so you only need one device handy for key commands. Alternatively, use the controls on the front of CXC. 

Designed for Life

A CD collection should last a lifetime. We designed and engineered the CXC CD Transport to do the same. The bespoke S3 Servo is built to play CDs with precision for many years to come. And with elegant, minimalistic lines crafted from aluminium and steel, CXC’s timeless design will endure both physically and aesthetically.

CX Black Edition

Cambridge presents a 1000-piece limited edition of each CX Series 2 model in a minimalist matt black finish, with discreet gloss black branding. The same award-winning sound as CX, only in black. Why? Because we thought they’d look dead cool. If you want some, please don’t delay – CX Black Edition won’t be here for long.

Loved the sound, disappointed it wouldn’t read all my disks.
I liked the way the transport operated and the sound it generated. I was very disappointed it didn’t recognize some Red Book CDs. Our salesman sent the names and catalog numbers to Cambridge to see if they could provide an answer why the transport wouldn’t read them.

Will this play sacd that are not multilayered sacd hybrids ?
CHESTER M on Jan 12, 2021
  Thanks for your inquiry. It is not possible to play SACD, MP3 or WMA discs on the CXC. The CXC uses the same S3 servo as our Azur CD players and is optimised for CD playback only.
