Don’t Leave Your CD Collection Behind
Sweetwater home audio experts recommend the Ruark R-CD100 as an essential companion for CD collectors upgrading to a 100 Series system, such as the R410, R610, or R810. Plug it into the USB-C port on your 100 Series system, and it appears on the display as an additional source, making disc playback as intuitive as ever. This straightforward CD player doesn't convert the signal; instead, it sends raw CD-DA data (16-bit/44.1kHz PCM) directly to your 100 Series unit's onboard DAC, ensuring the same best-possible sound quality you already rely on for streaming. The R-CD100 features a precision slot-loading mechanism that handles CDs, CD-Rs, and CD-RWs with ease, and its anodized aluminum top plate and fused walnut cabinet complement your 100 Series system perfectly. You’ve spent years curating your CD collection, and with the R-CD100, you don’t have to leave it behind.
