Key Features
The Rotel CD14MKII follows in the tradition that Rotel has established of producing high-quality and award winning CD players. The MKII model includes many performance upgrades as well as enhancements to the power supply, printed circuit board and acoustically tuned components. This will deliver the highest quality performance and extremely accurate reproduction of the CD.

The digital to analogue conversion is done using a premium Texas Instruments 32-bit DAC with custom-tuned external analogue output filters. The circuitry between the analogue and digital circuitry is fed by independent voltage and current power supplies. This eliminates any unwanted distortion and isolates the motor control circuits from the audio circuits. Further reducing noise and distortion.
With RCA analogue outputs you can send the signal from this CD player to an amplifier of your choice and distribute the signal throughout your system. A digital coaxial out also enables you to send the audio signal to an external DAC if you have a dedicated unit in your setup. The 12v Trigger and RS232 plugs on the CD14 also enable you to access some remote control functionalities so you can have your whole system's control centralised.
The CD14 has a remarkably low amount of noise when playing. You may notice that the smooth tray mechanism is extremely quiet. The power supply is of excellent quality - further reducing the noise. The isolation between the analogue and digital circuits as well as the motor circuitry also helps to keep noise at a minimum.
