The CD120 CD Player.
This is an excellent player and has the same electronics as the R1.1, but in a more conventional and very user friendly case. The level of construction is first class and unheard of in a player at this cost level, as is the sound quality. It is a true 24/192 machine and projects a three dimensional, detailed soundstage that competing players at several time the price are incapable of doing. It also has fully balanced inputs and is a perfect match to the a120 amplifier.

Solid
and innovative remote control.
is units are spectacularly built and have amazing sonics. If
they were from a top European manufacturer, they would be a revelation.
Being Chinese, they force a rethink of old prejudices. People
experienced with Consonance products, will not be surprised. Both
units have a large, wide and palpable soundstage, with lightning
transient ability and the ability to separate instruments clearly
across the soundstage. They also give you that "No back wall"
sensation that very few CD players do. I cannot think of a player
under $10,000 which would better these units. Both sound very
similar, but there is a naturalness, an ease and a "want
to listen longer" character with the R 2.2 with its tube
output stage, that makes it worth the extra money, if your system
has the ability to show the difference.
I had high expectations from these units. They exceeded
my expectations comfortably.
