Tangent
The Tangent CD III is the third generation of Tangent’s compact CD player and the successor to the popular CD II. Designed for music lovers who still appreciate the CD format, it delivers high sound quality in a sleek, space-saving design that fits perfectly into the Ampster III series.
A key upgrade is gapless playback, ensuring seamless transitions between tracks – ideal for live recordings and concept albums. The built-in display provides clear and intuitive navigation, while operation remains simple and straightforward.
The CD III can be used as a traditional CD player via its analogue RCA output or as a digital transport through the optical Toslink output when connected to an external DAC or a preamplifier such as the Tangent PreAmp III.
Supplied with a system remote control, the CD III integrates effortlessly into a complete Tangent setup. Its combination of solid build quality, ease of use and stable performance makes it an ideal choice for bringing new life to your CD collection.
The CD III comes in new packaging where almost all plastic has been replaced with cardboard. This provides a cleaner, sturdier, and more practical unboxing experience
