Project CD Box E CD Player is a little gem. Pro-Ject has been producing affordable, compact CD players for many years. But the CD Box E represents something new.In an age where beloved CD collections may be gathering dust. The ability to access high-quality CD playback without taking up a lot of space and without breaking the bank is highly appealing.



Project CD Box E CD Player


Measuring a mere 206mm in width and, potentially more significantly, 160mm in depth. The Pro-Ject CD Box E can be placed in locations where the others cannot. Being compact enough to be placed on a bookcase, it is a great companion for a wireless streaming system or it can be combined with Pro-Ject’s other small 'Box’ ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌separates.



Red Book CD Drive


Unlike DVD or Blu-ray Disc players, the pure CD player is often actually a better source for playing back stereo CDs. Inside is a genuine Red-Book CD drive housed in a shock-proof mounting. The premium DAC delivers excellent resolution and the sweetest sound.



Multi Bit Delta Sigma Design


Apart from the 24-bit/192 kHz, low-jitter, multi-bit delta-sigma design. The DAC also has generous digital to analogue conversion architecture. This is a very important factor for the music players to sound the way they are recorded. In a similar way to its larger models, drive and architecture of the CD Box E allow bit-accurate CD playback ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌1:1.


The manufacturer has also made it possible to use the CD Box E more quietly by adding an RCA output. This allows the user to connect an amplifier or active speakers.

Enhanced Sound Reproduction


It has minimal output impedance and a particularly low output buffer. This thing of beauty has been developed solely to eliminate cable interference and deliver to you enhanced sound quality and reproduction.

Only the front part of the CD Box E is taken from the CD Box S3. This CD player not only has an anodised aluminium front panel. But is also equipped with easy-to-use control buttons below the slot-in disc drawer. Maintaining an elegant look, the CD Box E retains the sophisticated design of the CD Box S3. Thereby fitting in seamlessly with its visual appeal.

Features and Benefits



Summary of the Project CD Box E CD Player

Price and Performance


The rest of the body is made out of a sturdy metal sheet providing stability and preventing any damages from external mechanical and electromagnetical sources. In appearance, it is a tribute to Pro-Ject's first CD Box. However, its price and performance make it a prominent player in the present ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌market.



Connectivity


Connection to your wider system is easy thanks to the high-quality, low-output impedance RCA terminals. However, if you have a preferred DAC already in your system you can also make use of the Coaxial S/PDIF digital output.
