Improves upon the original CD14 with an upgraded digital to analog converter, power supply, and internal circuits.
An excellent CD player gets even better
The original Rotel CD14 made music on disc sound simply amazing, and the CD14 MkII raises that high bar. There’s now a premium Texas Instruments 32-bit/384kHz digital to analog converter inside, and several tweaks have been made to the power supply and internal circuits in a relentless pursuit of superior sound.
