The Premiera C1 PRO is a high-quality CD player designed for professional use. Its casing features the same understated design that characterizes other devices in the Premiera lineup. Prominently displayed on the front panel, alongside the control buttons and the classic CD player display, is the universal control knob, which users will recognize from the Premiera integrated amplifiers. The front panel buttons allow for playback management, while input and output selections can be made through the menu or via the remote control.
The Premiera C1 PRO display offers a wealth of information, while the settings menu is user-friendly and straightforward. Through this menu, users can select inputs and outputs, manage playback, adjust the brightness of both the display and buttons, access device information, update software, and restore factory settings if needed. Additionally, a handy three-position playback time counter aids in navigating CD playback, and a regulator with a “shuttle” function allows for precise control over track rewinding and fast-forwarding.
The Premiera C1 PRO DAC utilizes the Cirrus Logic CS4398 Multibit Delta-Sigma DAC chip, featuring a multibit architecture based on Delta-Sigma modulation. Additionally, the CD player allows for the connection of external DAC devices through three digital outputs: optical, coaxial, and professional AES. The C1 PRO also includes both balanced and unbalanced linear outputs.
The Premiera C1 PRO is a CD player that combines a sleek and practical design with advanced technology. It features software updates and versatile usage options, delivering exceptional sound quality. Notably, its pricing is highly competitive compared to similar products on the market.
