SW1X CDP I Complete DAC Player

SW1X Audio Design™ CDP I Performance Level 1

Complete DAC Player & Streamer

CDP I = DAC I + VDT I/2 Transport & Streamer

CDP is short for Complete DAC Player. Similar to a CD Player, CDP is a SW1X DAC with a VDT Digital Player/Streamer housed in one chassis.

This is a harmonically matched solution for those who are looking to miximise the musical and analogue characteristics of SW1X digital source without the hassle of mismatch stemming from multiple chassis products.

Everything is designed to be UPnP & DLNA ready- just connect & discover the device on your network & control the playback of your music media via touch screen or another device.
