Primare CD35 Prisma silver

The CD35 Prisma model is a complete digital music media source, offering a CD player, playback of stored or streamed music, as well as wired and wireless connectivity and control features. A dedicated latest-generation CD player transmits a jitter-free digital signal to a brand new DAC stage thanks to an eight-channel ESS Sabre high-end sound chipset that converts this signal to analog to feed it to a precisely tuned output stage.

CD35 Prisma features Prisma, Primare’s whole-home hi-fi connectivity and control solution. Prisma offers multi-room/multi-zone connectivity and control of stored or streamed media playback, with or without wires, and benefits from centralized management from any mobile device via a dedicated system control app. In addition to Bluetooth®, AirPlay and Spotify Connect technologies, Prisma has a built-in Chromecast, a unique streaming portal allowing direct connection to hundreds of streaming apps.
