Audiolab 6000CDT CD Transport (Black)

BH #AU6000CDTBK • MFR #6000CDTBK
Audiolab 6000CDT CD Transport (Black)
Key Features
  • Single-Disc, Slot-Loading Mechanism
  • CD Playback (DAC or Amplifier Required)
  • Digital Coaxial, TOSLINK Optical Out
  • Electromagnetically Shielded Enclosure
Enjoy accurate CD playback with your external DAC or amplifier and the black Audiolab 6000CDT CD Transport. It uses a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator to control the master clock to virtually eliminate digital distortion during playback; to the same end, the coaxial output receives its signal from a differential line driver. The electromagnetically shielded enclosure helps block EMI from negatively affecting the onboard electronics.

Audiolab 6000CDT Overview

Enjoy accurate CD playback with your external DAC or amplifier and the black Audiolab 6000CDT CD Transport. It uses a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator to control the master clock to virtually eliminate digital distortion during playback; to the same end, the coaxial output receives its signal from a differential line driver. The electromagnetically shielded enclosure helps block EMI from negatively affecting the onboard electronics.

The 6000CDT features optical and digital coaxial outputs, allowing you to run it to two separate DACs or amplifiers to achieve different sound signatures. Its read-ahead digital buffering helps reduce disc-reading failures and helps the transport read scratched and damaged CDs. The 6000CDT can control additional compatible connected components with its dual 12V trigger outputs. A remote control is included as an added convenience.

Temperature-Compensated Crystal Oscillator
The master clock is controlled by a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator, enabling both the optical and digital ports to output low levels of jitter (digital distortion).
Differential Line Driver
The coaxial output is fed from a differential line driver to help ensure a flawless digital signal to your DAC or amplifier.
Electromagnetically Shielded Enclosure
By mounting the transport in its own electromagnetically shielded enclosure with a dedicated power supply, the digital signal extraction from your CDs is as accurate as can possibly be achieved.
Additional Features
  • Slot-loading mechanism
  • Read-ahead digital buffering to reduce disc-reading failures
  • Capable of reading scratched and damaged CDs
  • Automatic equipment activation via dual 12V trigger outputs
  • Display on/off options
  • Auto standby function with on/off options

Does the same unit support 115v and 230v input? ...

Does the same unit support 115v and 230v input? Manual says 100v, 115v, 230v, 240v. Back of unit says 115v for US.
Asked by: Ian
There's a voltage switch on the underside of the unit, need to remove two screws to get to it.

Should the transport use digital coaxial or toslink cable to maximize the sound quality?
Asked by: Rong
That really comes down to sound preference, typically coaxial gives better dynamic range. But it some cases toslink will perform better. I would recommend to try both and see which one you like.
