Rediscover Your CD Collection
Built for music lovers who appreciate the CD format, the CD III delivers clean, reliable playback with excellent clarity. Its compact form factor makes it an ideal match for the Ampster III series or any system where space is limited but sound quality still matters.
Gapless Playback for Seamless Listening
A key upgrade in the CD III is gapless playback, ensuring smooth transitions between tracks without interruption. This is essential for live recordings, classical works, and concept albums where continuity is part of the experience.
Flexible Analogue and Digital Outputs
The CD III can be used as a traditional CD player via its analogue RCA output, or as a digital transport using the optical Toslink output. This allows connection to an external DAC or compatible amplifier for further system upgrades.
Simple Operation, Clean Design
With an integrated display and straightforward controls, the CD III is easy to use day-to-day. A system remote is included, allowing seamless integration with other Tangent components for a clean, unified setup.
