Over the past decade, digital playback has veered off on a tangent, to sound ever more detailed and uninvolving. Hence AMR's CD-77 Compact
Disk Processor had one aim and one aim only:

"To bring compact disk playback back en par with the vinyl system."

That is, to put the life, emotion and enjoyment back into listening to compact disks. With this in mind, the CD-77 was developed to sound real,
dynamic and most important of all, involving for the listener.

The core DAC is the classic "King of the Multibit" – Philips TDA1541A chipset. This chipset forms the heart of an extremely unique “Digital Engine”
that comprises of the latest Lattic’s CPLD and TI’s DSP devices.

Combined with the revolutionary “Gomez” analogue stage using pure New Old Stock valves throughout and a total of 5 dedicated
audio specified transformers, the CD-77 brings the performance of CD back in-line with the very best vinyl has to offer.
