Rotel CD14 MK II

A new design. Because CD still sounds better.

Replacing the much respected Rotel designs wasn’t easy. Their products sold in great numbers and have been one of the top selling products in America and Europe. Regarded as superb value for money, they bring a taste of hi-end to affordable price points.

How to improve on something that isalready close to perfect, especially when it comes to price/performance and the materials used for production?

The Tachikawa family in Japan – founders and owners of Rotel, finally had the opportunity to work with Ken Ishiwata, a highly respected engineer behind much of the success of rival brand Marantz.

Ishiwata is known for elevating sound qualityby a combinationof changes – both mechanical and electronic, with the application of damping materials helping to deaden vibrations in both the top cover and main chassis. The DAC stage sees the replacement of eight capacitors and one resistor with upgraded types, while all nine capacitors in the PSU have also been switched for preferred alternatives. Furthermore, the electrical ground paths within have been re-routed.

The objective was to create the best sounding units for those with critical ears and limited budgets, and a feature set demanded by Audiophiles.
