LUXMAN - D-N100 CD PLAYER

Compact Luxman Gear Packs a Powerful Punch 

The D-N100 CD Player continues Luxman’s tradition of building audio products that marry for and function in a beautiful package. Designed to be a companion piece to the SQ-N100 Tube Integrated Amp , this jewel-like component possesses a stunning level of musicality.

The D-N100 CD player delivers on Luxman’s sound signature, reproducing CDs with warmth and natural tonality. The drive mechanism is suspended from the top of the CD player in an ingenious design to keep any vibration away from the transport. This unit is only 11.7 inches wide.

"Even before switching them on, there's that whiff of satisfaction that only comes with the handling of a well crafted object. The CD player is one sweet machine, a joy to use - with neat details like a transport mechanism hanging from the top of the chassis to isolate it from vibration - and it upsamples regular CDs to 24/192.  The sound is silky, non-fatiguing and a perfect match for the amp!" Ken Kessler Hi Fi News & Record Review (UK) May 2008

Since 1925, Luxman has crafted audio products for the most demanding of listeners. Luxman products are built and designed in Japan; each device carefully tested and evaluated. Luxman designs unique, special and one of a kind. Luxman amplifier designs are usually dual mono. The transformers are made in Japan to Luxman specifications. Luxman even hand selects the color paint used on the resistors to identify value and tolerance based on extensive listening tests. The chassis are carefully tuned to control vibration and resonance, making Luxman products perform like a musical instrument. Finally assembly and testing are carried out in Japan. Luxman's attention to detail is second to none.

Luxman Design Philosophy

Easy On the Ear
A piece of audio equipment should offer excellent performance specifications. Yet, the product that performs the best on paper is not necessarily the best sounding one - because there is no way to relate specifications to the degree of emotion a product evokes in the heart of the listener.

Easy on the Body
Human senses are quick to detect unnaturalness in what we hear. Artificial sound tires us, but rich, natural sound relaxes and frees us from stress and tension, letting us enjoys music at the deepest level. While Luxman places a great importance on numerical analysis of their products, still greater significance is given to actual auditions. In essence, our performance concept is to ensure that a component produces the most natural sound possible when it plays back music.

Easy On the Eye
Luxman builds their products to deliver natural sound that brings spiritual serenity to the listener. In aesthetic terms, Luxman stresses the interplay of light and shadow, giving Luxman products a solid, sculpture-like impression. Open to innovative ideas and free from engineering prejudices; Luxman is committed to designing and building products that satisfy those music lovers who are unwilling to settle for anything less than the best.
 
Easy On the Soul
Luxman audio components deliver both the emotional impact of the performance as well as the peace of mind of long-term reliability. Every model incorporates proven circuit designs and exhaustive quality evaluations to provide uncompromising durability.
