In the last article, I defined the Cyrus CD player as "35A among disc players". That disc player is CD No. 7. It is indeed a CD that will make you addicted after listening to it for a long time. machine.
CD8X
PSX-R power supply
In terms of sound, the combination of CD8x and PSX-R breaks my definition of CD7 as "35A in disc players". Its sound is no longer petite and slightly shy. It is smooth and smooth among all Cyrus products. On the basis of high resolution, it also adds a balanced, atmospheric, smart and delicate style. The most valuable thing is that when listening to various types of music, the emotional expression is very good.
is more inclusive than Le Saint Caspian CD player. For example, Le Saint Caspian needs to be paired with suitable speakers to listen to pop music and vocals. Otherwise, the three-band design will be too balanced and fail to highlight the human voice, making the music appear heavier and less light and elegant; The combination of 8x and PSX-R is different. When listening to symphony , it is majestic and rich in details. When listening to violin and vocals, solo instruments and singers can independently jump out of the background music. The feeling is extremely clear. In the past, it was always necessary to have two pairs of speakers to listen to different styles of music, but now a pair of high-quality speakers is enough.
Speaking of high resolution, 8x can vividly express the details in CDs. For example, there is a section of the "Hugo" record that deliberately recorded the sound of a microphone being dropped. When I first heard it, I was shocked. It was so real. ! Furthermore, on two discs, due to poor recording or old recording, the sound "cracks" when the singer or the highest note of the music is heard. Such flaws can be heard very realistically. I sincerely admire the British Bel Canto company's sound proofing level, it is really brilliant.
The picture above is the combination I am most satisfied with at the moment. I have been listening to speakers for 30 years, and the Naim amplifier combination has been used for ten years. The 42.5 preamp is from the 1980s, and the 140 is probably from the 1990s. There has never been any bad condition during use, and it is as quiet as the calm sea. . Now adding the Cyrus CD8X sound source combination is really even more powerful. My upgrade and transformation is basically completed. This set of equipment is very likely to accompany me for the rest of my life:
amplifier: British Naim 42.5+140 and Israeli power supply
CD player: British Bel Canto Cyrus CD8X and PSX-R power supply
speaker (will be written specifically later) )
