Cambridge Audio CXC Series 2


 Cambridge has come out with the Series 2 CXC transport. Based upon a conversation I had with a dealer the only differences between it and the original model are a new faceplate and finish; there's no technology change.  Cost bumps up $150 for the cosmetics. If you have plans on buying the CXC the original version is on sale as I guess stock needs to be moved out.

I have yet to meet the piece of gear whose performance isn’t enhanced by a good power cable.



It already got a good linear supply in it, no smp noisy junk.

was wondering if there was an internal upgrade, quite happy with my CXC
I believe it’s just cosmetics. Nothing wrong with the look of the old one, the only thing I didn’t like was the supplied universal remote for all their products, all the buttons I wanted were at the bottom, makes it difficult to hold and press buttons at the same time using one hand. Maybe they fixed that, and gave a dedicated CD remote.

Cheers George
Is this a quirk of the CXC V1 or is this just my unit? When using the remote and say track #4 is playing, when I push the previous track button track #3 starts. Most players would restart at #4.
It’s not a quirk, depends on the laser/mech and it's board, Sony, Philips, Sanyo ect ect
i have an Arcam Delta 250 transport that does this too, but if you press play it will restart just the track it’s playing.
