Everything indicates that, as the years are passing, the Hi-Fi market is undoubtedly changing and Cyrus, with feet firmly on the ground, stubbornly offers electronics in a gentle, more attractive design and a surprisingly favorable quality / price ratio. If the above resume raises your doubts, I strongly encourage you to listen to the title duo, i.e. CDt-XR and i7-XR, to see with your own eyes and ears that a lot of good sound is encompassed in these inconspicuous boxes.

“The Classic AMP convinces at the decisive point: the sound quality. Its light-footed, thus relaxed, pace clearly sets it apart from the usual, because the Cyrus demonstrates a dexterity in handling all sounds. Listening to music with this amplifier is a real pleasure.”

Wojciech Pacuła of highfidelity.pl took a closer look at Classic PRE. “If you are looking for a universal preamplifier and do not care about specific amplifier topologies, you should like the Classic PRE. […] As it is, the PRE is really great.”

Ed Selley from AV Forums has reviewed the Classic AMP. “The Classic Amp absolutely flies along, grabbing you, engaging you and making you a participant rather than a spectator.”

What Hi-Fi? Awards winner 9 years in a row for ‘Best CD Player over £500’. This Cyrus CD player takes things to a new level.

The CDt-XR shows that digital audio continues to evolve and that the Compact Disc has a lot to offer, is easy to use, and the music we buy really belongs to us.

The Cyrus CDt-XR is one of the clearest examples of the ‘less is more’ philosophy in audiophile HiFi.

The CDi XR is a CD player that manages to extract every bit of detail from all CDs. Not only is it technically perfect but also manages to incorporate a kind of analogue sophistication into the playback.

If you’re an audiophile looking for an optical disc player optimized for CD playback, the CDi-XR would be a fine choice.
