Rotel RCD 1572MKII CD Player

The Rotel RCD-1572MKII continues Rotel's tradition of award-winning CD players dating back to 1989. An ultra-low noise in-house manufactured toroidal transformer keeps the digital and analogue circuits electrically and physically isolated, removing unwanted distortion and lowering the noise floor.

A premium Texas Instruments 32-bit DAC feeds fully balanced differential XLR outputs alongside unbalanced RCA and a coaxial digital output, giving the RCD-1572MKII the flexibility to serve as either a CD player or a transport into an external DAC.

Why Consider the Rotel RCD-1572MKII

For a CD collection that remains a primary source, a dedicated disc player with fully balanced outputs delivers cleaner playback than routing through a universal disc drive or computer. The isolated power supply and coaxial transport output also mean the RCD-1572MKII keeps its usefulness if the rest of the system is later upgraded around an external DAC.

Ideal For

• CD collections used as a primary listening source
• Balanced systems built around Rotel RC-series preamplifiers
• Listeners who may later add an external DAC
• Systems wanting isolated digital and analogue power supplies
