BEST CD PLAYER UPTO £1000" (Hi-Fi Choice Awards 2011)

Available in brushed aluminium or black While most CD players are designed purely for CD playback, the award winning 8200CD has been created with flexibility firmly in mind. Their architecture is perhaps best described as a ʻDAC + CDʼ, rather than as a CD player in the traditional sense. The DAC (Digital-to-Analogue Converter) is the cornerstone of their design, which is why Audiolab has chosen the Sabre 32-bit audio DAC from ESS Technology to carry out D-to-A conversion.
The provision of digital inputs – optical, coaxial and USB – means the 8200CD can be used to deliver top-quality sound from all kinds of digital sources, including audio files from computers and other media devices. Thus, all music benefits from the superb sound quality produced by the playersʼ DAC and discrete Class A output stages.
"BEST CD PLAYER UP TO £1000" (Hi-Fi Choice Awards 2011) "BEST CD PLAYER £500 - £1000" (What Hi-Fi Awards 2010)
The 8200CD is as sonically detailed a player as we've heard at this price level. Take a listen to a densely populated album such as the Inception OST and the Audiolab will uncover a massive amount of detail... most impressive of all is its naturalness. It sounds organic in a way few digital products can, and is utterly convincing in the manner in which it delivers the nuances of a voice or the unfurling of an orchestral crescendo' (What Hi-Fi Awards 2010) 'The 8200CD is an absolutely brilliant package for the money. At last Cyrus has a competitor to worry about...Astonishingly good sound for the money; terrific DAC; superb build; nice remote control' (What Hi-Fi magazine) 'We reckon the onboard DAC alone would be worth something approaching £400 - astonishing considering the Audiolab already undercuts the Cyrus by £225. In fact, we reckon the 8200CD would still get five stars if it was priced at £1500' (What Hi-Fi magazine December 2010) 'One of the finest CD players available; at £700 it’s simply a steal...excellent detail, neutrality and communication...if you are in the market at anywhere up, at least, a grand, the 8200CD could just be the piece of equipment that makes you want to say in the demo room 'where's the cash register?' (Hi-Fi Choice magazine December 2010)
