Arcam CD5 CD Player

CD’s may not be as popular now as they were in years gone by but we know there are many music lovers out there with large CD collections that still want to enjoy the best possible listening experience.

Arcam has been a pioneer of Compact Disc technology almost right from the start, launching their Delta 70 CD player in 1986, designed and built by Arcam from the ground up. In the decades since Arcam’s engineers have gained vast experience and expertise in producing high quality digital audio products and all the valuable knowledge has been poured into the CD5.

Premium Components

New components and materials have been painstakingly analysed and reviewed to ensure the best possible performance. A premium ESS 9018 DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor) helps the CD5 to deliver lifelike, immersive sound with depth, clarity and incredible detail.

Hi-Res audio playback

The CD5 can play both FLAC and WAV encoded CDs to provide Hi-Res capabilities. The rear mounted USB-A input also allows playback of FLAC, WAV, WMA, MP3 and AAC music files (up to 24-bit/192kHz) when stored on a USB flash drive or hard disc storage device.

Flexible connectivity

Arcam’s CD5 includes a choice of audio outputs including digital optical, digital coaxial or analogue RCA, ensuring compatibility with any amplifier or AV receiver.

Sleek style & premium build quality

With its sleek design, all-aluminium casing and luxurious satin black finish the CD5 has the looks to go with its high-end performance.
