Based on the best materials selected for their capability to deliver sound of the highest caliber and a separate Elektra power supply, the Calypso reference CD Transport, an upgrade of the Calyso CD Transport, presents a fully innovative design and a new esthetic way to extract the best sound from CD Media.

Main Highlights and Design Features

The Philips CDM 12 Pro 2 v6.8 metal chassis has been significantly customized by METRONOME TECHNOLGIE and provides a stable foundation to very accurately capture the signal.

The Perpex® and stainless steel clamp and the proprietary shaft designed by METRONOME TECHNOLGIE permit a better stability of the CD and consequently to reproduce the best possible sound with a low jitter.

Continuous ground link from the disc surface to the electrical earth permits the dissipation of static electricity for better working conditions of electronic and optical components. 

A switchable upsampling device delivers 24 bit/96 kHz signal to the D/A converter.

The separate Elektra power supply with individual power transformers and completely independent regulation lines for each critical part of the transport - display, servo mechanism, motor, digital output stage, provides an inter-stage EMI/RFI radiation protection and insures a dynamic analog-like sound quality. It also permits to mechanically isolate the sensitive electronic components from the vibration induced by the transformers.

The Calypso Reference silent base support permits a significant sonic improvement by greatly increasing the soundstage and reproducing a very impressive dynamic contrast. 
The 40mm thick Perpex® support insures the dissipation of vibrations in both horizontal and vertical directions
