Product: Musical Fidelity KW SACD/CD Tube Based Player
Original Manual
Functional Notes: Operational condition of this item is excellent. It was just checked and 2 wheels were replaced by one of the best tech in NJ. Sounds incredible.
Cosmetic Description: Conservatively 8/10 Very Good condition with few minor scuffs and dusts. Overall, looks very charming.
Notes: This is the best sounding SACD/CD Player I ever encountered. The sound is incredibly clear, yet soft and delicate. A tank-like body is a welcome bonus. You will love it as well.
The following is a review by Welcome to Audio Venue.
The KW SACD/CD Player has a meltingly beautiful sound. It doesn't really sound like other disc players. Its sound is reminiscent of a really good analog system but with no noise or dynamic range problems. Once you've heard the KW SACD/CD Player, you just can't forget that clarity coupled with a delicacy and softness.
Audiophile product designed exclusively for super quality stereo reproduction. As you'd expect, the kW SACD'S technical performance is shattering. The DAC is configured as dual mono twin differential upsampling at 192k to 24-bits and then 8x oversampled. This yields an incredible 128dB noise ratio with an equivalent dynamic range. The jitter is extremely low at less than 135 pps. The noise ratio, however, is even more extraordinary at about -128dB. Linearity is 0.1dB down to 100dB. The DAC and filter stage in the kW SACD are the best in the world, regardless of price. The kW SACD achieves technical performance which puts most products at any price, in the shade.
The output stage is particularly interesting because it is a hybrid tube/class A transistor output stage. You will be able to select either tube or pure class A transistor output modes. Really, really interesting. But how does it sound it's not like anything we've made before. The pure fine resolution and grain structure of the sound, coupled with amazing detail retrieval, is a new dimension to disc reproduction. This baby allows you to hear right into the dark shadows and corners of the music. It really is that good!
Dual differential DAC. Outstanding technical performance.
Extremely accurate linearity down to very low levels (typically -100dB).
Lets you hear right into the far distant corners of the recording.
Foremost non existent distortion.
You can hear everything on the recording as it happened on the day.
Excellent noise ratios.
Everything, but everything can be heard.
Two output stages operating at the same time (one tube and the other solid state).By connecting both the output stages to your amplifier you can switch between tube and solid state and select the one which compliments your hi-fi system and your discs on an individual basis. Really useful.
