The 99 CD-P is an exceptional CD player –
without doubt, one of the finest and most
advanced machines available. It uses a state-
of-the-art transport and DAC, and
incorporates both fixed and variable level
outputs so it can be used both with a Pre-
Amplifier, or to maintain the very cleanest
signal path, directly into a Power Amplifier.
The transport has a remarkable specification
with an ultra-smooth servo to dramatically
reduce ‘clock jitter’. The three laser pickup
reads the disc with exceptional accuracy
ensuring transparency and neutrality in
reproduction.
The very latest 24 bit/192 kHz upsampling
Crystal DAC produces breathtaking detail
and resolution, opening a window to the
recording to squeeze out every last subtle
effect and sensation.
Six digital inputs, three coaxial and thee
optical allow other sources to benefit from
the on-board DACs and in certain
applications, negate the need for a pre-
amplifier altogether.
The 99 CD-S is a brand new model, offering
a similar level of sound quality to the CD-P,
but in a simple format. This model
dispenses with the additional digital inputs
and the variable output level of the full CD-P.
Using a brand new transport, our own
proprietory loading mechanism, control
software and the most advanced decoding
with the emphasis on reading data correctly,
the CD-S produces a sensational
performance without fuss.
Mains powered and offered with standard
RCA connector or with a ‘bus-link’ to be
connected through a Quad pre-amplifier,
the CD-S is as versatile as it is practical.
When used with the ‘bus-link’ system, the
CD player is operated through the system
remote control (supplied with the pre-
amplifier) and dovetails seamlessly into the
system. Power triggers, system commands
and balanced audio signals are all
communicated through the bus system. The
CD-S uses Crystal 24bit/96kHz DACs for a
high resolution, detailed soundstage.

Quad power amplifiers have always been
amongst the finest in the world. Over the
years, they have earned a reputation for
being ‘straight wires with gain’, because they
neither add nor take anything away from the
original music signal.
The 99 Stereo Power Amplifier uses a dual
complementary feedback circuit with
exceptional stability margins to achieve
exemplary performance and an output of
over 80 watts per channel. Overload
recovery is instantaneous and the amplifier
is fully protected against over-driving or
misuse, without resorting to output line
fuses or relays.
Stereo Power Amplifier
Power is something that this 99 Mono
Power Amplifier has in abundance. Into a
nominal 8 Ohm load it delivers well over
150 Watts and a breathtaking 220 Watts into
a 4 Ohm load.
In all other respects, this amplifier is close
to the 99 Stereo Power Amplifier and shares
its technology and topology as well as its
excellent standards of performance.
