AMPLIFIERS
|
CEC AMP3300 Integrated
Amplifier. This amazing amplifier shares much of its design
with its big brother the AMP71, which is an incredible single ended class A
Integrated with innovative circuitry. The smaller brother, AMP3300 produces
60wpc into 8 ohms and 100wpc into 4 ohms, and can drive difficult loads with
ease. Usage of Class A circuitry, dual mono design, and a newly designed IGM
volume control combine to create a sound that is hugely transparent and
detailed, yet warm and lucid, the best of tubes and transistors? Comes in Black or Silver. PRICE: AUD$1199.00 |

CEC AMP5300 Integrated
Amplifier. This new amplifier expands on the output stage of
the 3300. AMP5300 produces 100wpc into 8 ohms. Usage of Class A circuitry,
dual mono design, and a newly designed IGM volume control combine to create a
sound that is hugely transparent and detailed, extremely close to the 3300
but with greater power for those difficult loads. Comes in Silver Mink finish. PRICE:
AUD$1799.00 |

CEC AMP53 Integrated
Amplifier. CEC’s new slim case design featuring CEC’s
patented Single Ended Class A circuitry and 120WPC output power. Features balanced & single ended inputs, remote
DIGM (digital intelligent gain management) volume control system, and a
blue-lit LCD display. Casing is all alloy on the new
53 series, and the AMP53 has a built in silent fan in the bottom panel. She
runs pretty warm and sounds glorious! Big open rhythmical soundstage
are words that aptly describe the new AMP53. Combine the new AMP53 with the TL53Z player for an
exceptional sound system with a superbly transparent Class A sound. Comes in Silver Mink finish. Includes custom alloy remote
control! PRICE:

CEC TUBE53 Vacuum
tube amplifier. Finally! CEC produce a Class A vacuum
tube amplifier. 20WPC output from the 6L6GC tubes, and utilising the low
noise 12AU7 at the input stage. Runs 3 conventional inputs switched from the
front of the amplifier and volume control, making for a neat front panel and
keeping the switching circuitry to a minimum. Comes in Silver Mink finish. DETAILS: The TUBE53’s output transformer, made from orient core
materials, enables a straight sound quality with minimum phase misalignment. The use of an additional toroidal
transformer for the power supply offers superior rise characteristics. Noise
is thoroughly eliminated by potting the transformer. The TUBE53 uses selected high-quality components to draw
out the circuitry’s full potential, such as low-distortion volume control,
electrolytic capacitors and resistors with high information processing
ability and low noise. The design concept for TUBE53
aims for a unique combination of the latest technology and traditional
analogue technique. Ample use of pure aluminum for the chassis contributes
greatly to both its sophisticated appearance and musical performance. The
slim and modern appearance fits right in with CEC’s
existing 53 series. The soft glow of the vacuum tubes, seen through the fine
glass side-panel handmade by expert craftsmen, is sure to provide you with
deep musical relaxation. ·

CEC CEC
Super link capability, Toslink, Coaxial, and
AES/EBU outputs. All new toroidal power supply, surface mount
technology, and some updates in the drive system including softer suspension. This
would have to be the bargain of the century, great rhythm and timing,
combined with dynamics and a very analogue sound, reminiscent of a Turntable.
Straight out of the box this transport would have to be one of the best under 5 grand!
Comes in Silver Mink finish. PRICE:

CEC LEF
Class A output stages now combined with the CI current injection
current/voltage converter. Balanced
and RCA analogue outputs. Full
compliment of digital outputs including the new CEC Super link, Toslink, Coaxial, and AES/EBU. Potted
toroidal power supply, surface mount technology, and some updates in the
drive system, including softer suspension. This
would have to be the bargain of the century, great rhythm and timing,
combined with dynamics and a very analogue sound, reminiscent of a Turntable.
Straight out of the box this CD player has been chosen over many so called
hi-end units twice the price! Comes in Silver Mink finish. PRICE: AUD$2399.00 |

We have one DX71 Mk II
left in the champagne finish above, this is the last 240v version available
anywhere, if you always thought about owning one of the best dacs around now is the time! |
PHONO STAGES

CEC PH53 PHONO STAGE. PH53
is a state of the art Phono amplifier. The unique
balanced current injection input for a wide range of MC cartridge and the LEF
amplifier technology for the output stage provide today's top level sound
quality. Also standard RCA input for unbalanced use with MM or MC cartridge
is available. All amplifier sections run without any overall negative
feedback, thus the amplifier creates no dynamic distortion. PH53
is compatible with both MM and MC cartridges and allows precise settings with
DIP switches on its bottom panel. RIAA with the Neumann extension allows a
wider top frequency extension. PH53 also has a switchable subsonic filter for
preventing large woofer excursions and muddiness in the midrange. PRICE: AUD$1149.00 |
