To ensure that this outstanding converter is not limited to the reproduction of optical data carriers alone, the developers equipped the new Luxman D-10X Super Audio CD Player with all relevant digital interfaces so that it is also available for external sources.

For the first time a MUS-IC BD34301EKV from ROHM Semiconductor is used here, which is used in a so-called dual-mono configuration. Also the control of the drive has been further refined.Īs already mentioned, a lot of attention was paid to the converter section, whereby a world novelty is to be announced here.

The cover plate is made of stainless steel and has a wall thickness of 5 mm. The drive is here “packed” in a separate case, which has a wall thickness of no less than 8 mm at the sides, whereby aluminium is used here. The aim is to eliminate even the slightest vibrations and resonances that could damage the sound, in order to guarantee the aforementioned accuracy in reading the data from the very beginning. As if the existing line-up wasn’t impressive enough, a very special drive will soon be added, namely the new Luxman D-10X Super Audio CD Player.Īt the heart of the new Luxman D-10X Super Audio CD Player is once again a drive developed by Luxman Corporation itself, the Luxman LxDTM-i Disc Transport Mechanism in the refined form described above. Despite the dominance of streaming, audio CD players or even Super Audio CD players are still very popular with a not so small target group.Ī traditional manufacturer in the HiFi segment, which even offers an impressive number of CD and SACD players, is the Japanese company Luxman Corporation. Many an audiophile music enthusiast has probably collected an impressive number of SACDs over the years, so that these will of course continue to be listened to in the best quality. CDs are obsolete, Super Audio CDs have not really made the breakthrough in the market anyway… And yes, to a certain extent this may be true, but this assessment ignores one thing, namely the countless passionate music enthusiasts who have been collecting eagerly over the years and who have hundreds, if not thousands of CDs as their own and of course want to use them in the future in the usual way.

It has been said for years and days that the silver discs, which for a long time were the music source par excellence, are now long outdated and will be replaced by streaming. It is obvious that this player should take over the role of a flagship in its field… No less than the ultimate expression of musicality, a statement, that’s how the Luxman Corporation describes its latest addition to the range of source devices, the Luxman D-10X Super Audio CD Player.
