    For the Highest Quality CD Digital Signal

    The Primare DD35 Dedicated Digital Transport provides superior digital transport capabilities to virtually any system as a result of its low resonance drive and ultra low noise digital output. This makes it the perfect partner for any of the models in Primare's modular line of products, including the PRE35 preamplifier, I35 integrated amplifier, and I25 integrated amplifier.

    The state-of-the-art TEAC dedicated CD drive supplies a jitter free signal to the digital output stage, boasting its own discrete power supply, ensuring the most complete and noise free signal is available for the chosen digital to analog conversion stage.

    While primarily designed for use with the most recent Prisma range of products, the DD35 will find a place in any system where the highest quality CD digital signal is required.

    "My Daily CD Player"

    "It has replaced my beloved Oppo BDP105D as my daily cd player," notes r/audiophile, reddit.com, February 2023. "Compared to the Oppo the sound seems to be a lot more 'clean.' Everything was seemingly perfect with the Oppo, but compared to the Primare DD35 the sound seems noisy."

    Drive Technology

    The TEAC CD 5020A-AT is an isolated transport providing precise, smooth tray loading, and low clamp noise. An internal interphase I2S and SPDIF digital audio interface combined with buffered memory is utilized for improved performance.

    Digital Output Technology

    Key to assuring that the digital signal from the drive is delivered to any DAC connected to DD35 as precisely as possible, a dedicated isolated power supply feed is provided to the digital output stage to allow for extremely low noise output.

    Power Supply Technology

    A custom linear power supply with an isolated dedicated direct supply for the digital output section is combined with a switch mode standby supply (turned off when in playback mode to minimize noise) to deliver on demand the precise power needed.

    Sleek Scandinavian Design

    Every aspect of Primare products – the way they look, the satisfying feel of the controls – contributes to the overall experience. As a result, Primare products exude the hallmarks of Scandinavian design, featuring a simple, elegant look with approachable and easy-to-understand functionality.

    An example of this are the control buttons, carefully crafted to provide the best tactile sense when used – not too large or too small, too soft or too stiff, nor to close to or far from the surface of the faceplate – or as they say in Swedish, lagom, meaning 'not too much not too little, everything in balance, proportion, and harmony.'

    Modular Design and System Building

    Primare feels it is essential to offer modularity whenever possible, in order to have just the right features, both now and for the future. Modular design is featured in the I25 and I35 modular integrated amplifiers, as well as the PRE35 modular preamplifier, all of which can be updated with DAC and Prisma modules, as well as the CD35 CD player that can have the Prisma module added, either at the time of purchase or at a later date.

    As a result, Primare can offer a carefully considered array of models and configurations in order to allow for device selection that best fits any system need. For example, a CD35 with Prisma module installed can be paired with an I35 integrated amplifier, allowing for a separation of analog and digital stages. Or an I35 with DAC and Prisma modules installed can be paired with a DD35 CD transport, allowing for multi-room and multi-zone playback of every input, whether analog or digital source.
