£279
Smooth, detailed sound meets elegant design, with the Cambridge Audio AXC25.
Putting sound first
Skilfully engineered, the Cambridge Audio AXC25 puts the emphasis firmly on sound quality. Features such as separate power and output circuit boards and a centrally mounted CD transport help reduce distortion and maximise the potential of the high quality Wolfson DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor). Features are basic but the sound is certainly a step above its rivals.
Now with gapless playback
New to the AXC25 is gapless playback. With some CDs, a marker point is placed between tracks, even though the music runs continuously. This produces an annoying pause in the music as the player reads the track marker. With gapless playback, this is no longer an issue, meaning you get to hear the whole album exactly as the artist intended.
Sleek new style
The entire Cambridge AX Series has a fresh new look that catches the eye. The Lunar Grey front panel contrasts with the black top and sides, making it ‘pop’ into crisp focus. The cool white display and minimalist button count give a timeless style that’s typical of the Cambridge Audio brand. The teardrop facia with wedge foot mirrors the CX Series, showing a strong family link between ranges.
Make the best of your CD collection, with the Cambridge Audio AXC25.

Delighted I took the plunge
I have been toying with buying a new cd player to complement my AXA 35 amplifier. The AXC 35 and Marantz 6007 were firm candidates. However, when an AXC 25 was on clearance I couldn't resist an enquiry but someone else had already reserved the bargain. I had already convinced myself that I didn't need the additional features of my former firm candidates and decided to buy a new AXC 25 with a £10 VIP discount. It's a beauty. Also, its ease of use and the sound is a big improvement on the DVD player I was using.

Excellent experience
I bought a vinyl bundle in store and was served by a knowledgeable member of staff who got me a deal on a CD player and even helped walk it into my car! Good old fashioned service

Perfect player
I purchased this player after I had bought the AXC35 amp. I used my bluray player to playback cd's but decided to get the Cambridge cd player. Looks great next to the amp and separates instruments on playback better than the bluray. Great price for the 25 too. The AXC35 cd player is not necessary unless you want the dac output option.

Perfect priced high quality CD player
I got this AXC25 recommended by a Richer Sounds Telesales Advisor and the sound quality of the perfect no frills CD player is just right when on a budget I did however thought I should of got the AXC35 CD Player but looking into it there wasn't much for me to see that much of a difference though I am probably wrong. For me I am not a perfect hearing person but for the first time I have got to hear CDs as never before with hearing instruments clearer and giving a fresh crisp quality. Like I say if you are on a tight budget and want a well known make with high end quality for a price under £300 this is the one I would definitely say. You can spend hundreds to a thousand pounds or more but is it the answer to spend more when you don't need much to hear sounds like never before on a CD Player. One recommendation is to Cambridge Audio and that's make a multi playing CD Player where by you don't have to keep changing the CDs all the time but hat's just being a bit lazy. All in all an excellent CD Player for a beginner in separates HI-FI.
