This is an incredible result, not least when you consider how highly the review team rated the outgoing champion. Well done Audiolab! ! You' ll probably already be aware that the Audiolab 8200CD is brilliant as it took the Product of the Year gong in the CD players category, in the 2010 Awards.

The tweaks amount to a clearer, higher contrast display, extra digital filter options and an improved power supply arrangement. For some companies this would be enough to merit official Mk2 status.

While most CD players are designed purely for CD playback, the award winning 8200CD has been created with flexibility firmly in mind.

The provision of digital inputs ? optical, coaxial and USB ? means the 8200CD can be used to deliver top-quality sound from all kinds of digital sources, including audio files from computers and other media devices. Thus, all music benefits from the superb sound quality produced by the players DAC and discrete Class A output stages. Comprised of over 1700 components using precision SMT manufacturing on a 4 layer PCB, the Audiolab 8200CD is the most advanced electronic design in Audiolab? s impressive history.
