T+A Elektroakustik PDT 3100 HV CD/SACD Transport

A newly developed transport with AES, BNC, coax, USB, and optical outputs.

The silver disc is not dead! New transports are being developed all the time, and the PDT 3100 HV is a purist CD/SACD mechanism developed exclusively to read SACD and CD and stream that data to an output with the least amount of noise and jitter. The new decoder and drive mechanism has been developed from the ground up.

This mechanism reads and decodes CD and SACD without error and to the very highest standards of quality. It features the latest processors, lasers, high-performance motors, and other components. It fully shielded by being housed in a substantial aluminum case, with this entire block mounted on two close-tolerance linear bearings,. These are, in turn, suspended from a thick carrier plate that contacts the case at only three points. This design ensures that the whole mechanism is completely isolated from the heavy external housing.
