Rotel CD11MKII CD Player

Delivers the Most Detailed, Nuanced Sound from Every Disc

The CD11MKII CD Player furthers Rotel's 30+ year legacy of delivering high performance, high value CD players. If you have an extensive CD collection, you will appreciate how the CD11MKII breathes new life into your discs. If you are just starting out with compact discs, why not start out on the right foot with this exemplary player!

Simply stated, the CD11MKII is designed to do one thing: deliver the most detailed, nuanced sound from every disc. The unit will faithfully reproduce all that is recorded on the disc. While the unit was under development, the design team went far beyond the usual measurable technical performance characteristics.

Listening panels spent hundreds of hours fine tuning the audio performance, choosing the components that produced the best sound, that would "release the emotion in the music". Whatever the artist and recording engineers put on the disc, the unit will deliver.

Impressive Hardware, Balanced Design

The CD11MKII features some impressive hardware. Digital-to-analog conversion utilizes a Texas Instruments 24-bit, 384 kHz high performance stereo DAC specifically designed for audio applications.

All this, combined with Rotel's Balanced Design, ensures the unit will deliver the highest level of audio performance. When used in a high-quality audio system, your Rotel CD player will provide years of enjoyment.

"I Was Well Impressed by the Depth of Sound"

"I needed to replace an old Marantz CD player in my second system and had no hesitation choosing the new Rotel CD11 mk2" notes CD11MKII owner RomanticWarrior via forums.whathifi.com, February 10, 2025.

"I was well impressed by the depth of the sound. 'Oh, yes,' I was thinking and immediately set about enjoying several of my favourite 'test' tracks."

Proprietary Rotel Disc Transport

The player's heavy steel chassis supports a proprietary Rotel disc transport exclusively for the playback of compact discs. The CD11MKII's smooth, tray-loading mechanism, precise laser pickup, and silent running motor controller ensure seamless, worry-free playback of your CD collection.

Premium 32-bit Texas Instruments DAC

Digital to Analog conversion is handled by a premium Texas Instruments PCM5102A 32-bit, 384 kHz DAC feeding custom-tuned digital low pass filter circuits. This sound-first design renders music on a large, open sound stage with both power and finesse.

Intuitive Front-Panel Controls

Intuitive CD control functions on the front panel and included remote control ensure simple operation. The front panel graphic display shows playback status and disc meta-data information including the title and artist.

The CD11MKII is available in both black and silver colors.
