Rotel has been designing and manufacturing CD players since it launched the RCD-855 in 1989 and has never looked back since then. Consequently, the alluring opportunity to collaborate with audio legend Ken Ishiwata to create an even higher-performance version of the celebrated CD11 was enthusiastically embraced by the brand's design teams. The combination of Rotel and Ken's 40+ years of audio engineering experience led to the development of a truly special product; the CD11 Tribute Edition. The CD11 Tribute incorporates critical changes to the power supply and D/A conversion circuitry, coupled with extremely precise selection of components present in the audio signal path. Together, this allows for a greater sense of spaciousness, improved precision, and a superior level of detail and sense of authenticity to the music. Equipped with a set of RCA analog outputs and one coaxial digital output, a front-facing display and remote control, the CD11 Tribute continues Rotel 's proud tradition while reflecting the legacy of Ken Ishiwata and his tireless component development efforts. audio with performance far superior to what its price suggests.
