Electrocompaniet EMC 1 MKV Reference CD Player

Since 1998, Electrocompaniet has crafted one of the finest-sounding CD players on the market, the EMC 1 UP. The new EMC 1 MKV builds on this legacy, featuring a refined design with a new drive unit for enhanced performance. It also incorporates updated electronics, improved mechanics for a more rigid construction, and a redesigned chassis to align with the contemporary MKII editions of our other products.

Technology

This design prevents mechanical distortions from affecting the laser pickup, ensuring optimal playback quality.

Shielded Construction

The EMC 1 MKV features a no-compromise mechanical design with five distinct housings that shield analogue, digital, transport, transformer, and controller circuitry from interference.
