Arcam DiVA CD82 24-Bit CD Player – Silver

Arcam, or A & R Cambridge as they used to be known, have been around since 1976 when they released their first amplifier. 10 or so years later they were the first British company to design and manufacture their own CD player. Here we have a slightly more recent example of their art in the guise of the popular DiVA CD82 CD player, that comes in good condition noting wear to the case. It is supplied suitably packaged and comes with remote control, manual, mains cable plus our usual three month warranty.
Arcam Say….
The CD82 is the ideal half-way point between the CD72 and CD92 in the DiVA range. It is a supremely capable CD player. It incorporates state-of-the-art audiophile design techniques commonly found on players costing thousands of pounds. Early reaction from people who have heard the CD82 confirms our view that this product is destined to be a true classic and reinforces Arcam’s position as Britain’s leading CD manufacturer.
The CD82 uses two 24-bit 192 kHz capable Wolfson DACs in a dual-mode configuration, with one DAC chip used for the left channel and one DAC chip used for the right channel. The player uses high quality Burr Brown op-amps in the output stage and the DAC module includes a high-stability Class 1 crystal oscillator.
The CD82 was designed and manufactured in the UK and available in black or silver finishes.
