Color: Black

The Audiolab 6000CDT MKII is a dedicated CD transport from the 6000 Series. It reads your discs and passes a clean digital signal to your DAC or amplifier, with no conversion of its own. A new CD mechanism, a revised servo system and a reworked power supply build on the original 6000CDT. The chassis matches the 6000A MKII integrated amplifier, in Black or Silver.

Key Features

  • Dedicated CD transport: reads the disc and outputs digital audio only
  • New CD mechanism for stability, lower noise and faster response
  • Revised servo system for laser focus, tracking and disc speed
  • Separate power supply for the mechanism and the clock and digital circuits
  • Updated custom transformer
  • Precision master clock
  • 75 Ω coaxial and optical S/PDIF outputs
  • Plays CD, CD-R, CD-RW and data CDs (44.1 kHz to 96 kHz)
  • 12V trigger input and trigger link output
  • Matches the 6000A MKII; works with any DAC or amplifier with a coaxial or optical input

Precision at source

A new CD mechanism improves physical stability, lowers operating noise and responds faster. Disc rotation, laser positioning and vibration are controlled for reliable data reading and long service life.

Keeping every track in focus

The revised servo system manages laser focus, tracking and disc speed continuously. It adjusts for speed variations, surface flaws and disc eccentricity. Data is recovered with less correction, and imperfect or lightly damaged discs still play well.

Power with a purpose

The spinning mechanism has its own power supply, separate from the clock and digital circuits. An updated custom transformer gives steady power to the mechanism and servo and keeps motor and control noise out of the digital section.

From disc to your DAC

The 6000CDT MKII reads the disc and sends the digital signal to your amplifier, preamp or DAC, which does the conversion. It has a 75 Ω coaxial output and an optical S/PDIF output, with precision master clocking. The optical connection also isolates the transport electrically from the receiving device.

A natural partnership

Connected digitally to the 6000A MKII, the amplifier's ES9038Q2M DAC does the conversion. The transport also works with suitably equipped 7000 and 9000 Series components, the D7 and D9 DACs, and other makers' equipment with a coaxial or optical input.

Made for everyday listening

You get direct track access, repeat and random play, and programming of up to 99 tracks. With the 12V trigger, compatible equipment switches in and out of standby together. You can adjust the display and auto-standby settings.
