Jay's Audio CDT2-Pro is a reference-class Redbook CD transport engineered for uncompromising audiophiles who demand absolute digital precision and structural integrity. Utilizing the legendary, heavy-duty Philips CD-Pro2 linear-tracking mechanism, this model sets itself apart with its exceptional mechanical stability and laser tracking accuracy. When paired with its multi-stage linear power supply, dual Noratel toroidal transformers, and an ultra-low jitter Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator (OCXO), the CDT2-Pro delivers a deeply resolving, highly articulate sonic signature characterized by razor-sharp instrument separation and tight transient control.

Within the Jay’s Audio lineage, the CDT2-Pro occupies a unique, transitional niche that bridges the gap between traditional entry-level reference transports and the brand's absolute statement piece. While the CDT2-MK3 serves as the official, globally distributed foundation—celebrated for its fluid, analog-like presentation via a Philips CDM4 swing-arm laser—the CDT3-MK3 stands as the ultimate flagship, pushing performance to the absolute limit with a highly optimized Philips CD-Pro2 linear-tracking mechanism, massive chassis isolation, and advanced power treatment.

The CDT2-Pro effectively slices right through this hierarchy; it transplants the flagship's high-resolving, structurally precise CD-Pro2 mechanism into the more compact, cost-effective chassis footprint of the CDT2 series. This clever combination positions the CDT2-Pro as an audiophile "sweet spot," offering enthusiasts the hyper-detailed, transient-perfect sonic signature of Jay's top-tier architecture without the premium price tag of the full flagship package.

Features
  • Philips CD-Pro2 / LF Mechanism: Features a selected and tested premium top-loading laser mechanism known for its longevity and excellent tracking.
  • OCXO Clocking: Equipped with an Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator (OCXO) coupled with a precise PLL circuit to minimize digital jitter.
  • Configurable Sampling: Allows native 44.1kHz playback or upsampling to 176.4kHz via the machined aluminum remote control.
  • Robust Power Supply: Built with UK Noratel encapsulated transformers, multi-stage super regulators, and Gold Tune capacitors.
  • Customizable I²S Pinout: Features adjustable dip-switches on the back to match the HDMI I²S configuration of various DAC brands.
