Attessa CD Transport

Imagine being able to combine your CD transport and amplifier into a single, seamlessly connected unit. That’s the beauty of the Attessa CD transport, which perfectly pairs with either our Streaming or Integrated Amplifier. This enables Master Quality Audio playback, while the simplicity of the design, with no unnecessary onboard circuitry, enables maximum data retrieval from your discs. Likewise, we’ve designed the system to minimise the length of the signal path from the laser, reducing jitter. With custom firmware developed especially for the Attessa range, playback is clean, accurate and easier than ever to achieve.

The Attessa CD Transport is an in-house design that enables users to appreciate their prized CD collection in glorious high-fidelity. A key strength of the Attessa CD Transport is that it can be partnered and paired with the Attessa Integrated Amplifier or Streaming Amplifier via a proprietary ‘bus’ architecture that synchronises control information once they are paired. 

Once connected to a user’s Wi-Fi network, Monitor Audio Group’s bespoke MaestroUnite app ensures that the Attessa CD Transport is always running the latest firmware, as well as providing access to advanced setup features for total system personalisation. Furthermore, users can use Bluetooth’s ‘low energy’ mode to select the CD Transport and power it on and off, for total system simplicity.
