Product Information
”The Cyrus CDi continues to be the best CD player for serious music fans.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2024 award-winner.
Cyrus's "best sounding CD player ever"
These aren't our words, they're Cyrus's. When you take a look at the specification of this superb CD player, it's easy to believe; even considering Cyrus's previous sky-high standards. At the heart of this Cyrus CD player is their award-winning Servo Evolution disc reading engine. Put simply, this extracts more information from the disc than ever before, giving incredible realism and crystal clear clarity. Such detail at the beginning of the musical chain is extremely important because, no matter how good the rest of the player, it can't make up for what's gone before. Fortunately, the rest of the player is pretty impressive, too! Using many components from the range-topping CD Xt Signature plus a high quality 32-bit DAC gives the CDi exceptional resolution.
Unique Cyrus design and quality
For some decades now, Cyrus products have been instantly recognisable by their half-size case design. This not only makes them look more compact and attractive than other hi-fi separates but is practical, too; two units can be placed side by side without taking up any more width than a conventional hi-fi separate. Just as recognisable is the high quality, die-cast casing. A feature of Cyrus products since the late '80s, this very high quality casing not only looks great but has important sonic benefits, too. In mechanical terms, the dense casing provides a non-resonant nature, minimising microphonic effects. The non-ferrous composition also provides superior shielding against various electrical interference, such as RF disturbance.
Upgrade path
Like other Cyrus products, the CDi offers a clear upgrade path. Even though it already has a first-rate technical specification, it can still be improved. By adding Cyrus's famous PSX-R power supply, the CDi benefits from a more generous supply, helping to bring about a number of improvements. Firstly, with the supply located in a separate casing, noise that could affect the delicate electronics is greatly reduced. Secondly, the larger power supply is more highly regulated for a cleaner and purer supply. The resulting sound has extra detail and a more expansive soundstage.
Cyrus system synergy
Cyrus takes system synergy seriously. Not only do all their products aesthetically match one another but there's also a unique rack that's specifically designed for them - the Hark. In addition to this, the CDi features MC-Bus connectivity, allowing the CD player to integrate smoothly into a complete Cyrus system using just a single remote control.
If you're dedicated to CDs and want the very best from the format, this is how to do justice to your collection.
