The Audio Note (UK) CDT-Zero/II is designed to prioritize sonic performance and musicality, aiming to faithfully reproduce the original recording with clarity, dynamics, and tonal accuracy.

This CD transport utilizes an in-house custom modified Philips front loading CD mechanism that is specifically designed to provide a clean, transparent, and detailed sound reproduction from Red Book CDs. Red Book is the industry standard for audio CDs and is considered by many to be the best possible digital music format currently available.

The CDT-Zero/II features a single-ended/RCA 75 Ohm digital output. This type of digital output is commonly used in audio systems and is designed to provide a reliable and high-quality transmission of the digital audio signal from the CD transport to an external digital-to-analog converter (DAC) or other digital audio equipment.

In summary, the CDT-Zero/II is positioned as a cost-effective CD transport that is engineered to deliver high-quality sound performance in line with Audio Note (UK) Level Zero criteria, focusing on musicality rather than technical specifications.
