LUXMAN D-03R — Beyond a CD Player

Not just a CD player — a true digital music player. The best CD players excel at one thing: converting digital numbers into beautiful, lifelike sound through precise digital-to-analog conversion (DAC). The LUXMAN D-03R takes that expertise further, delivering exceptional playback not only from CDs but from all your digital music sources with breathtaking realism and musicality.

Precision CD Transport

The D-03R features a single-laser CD drive mechanism, purpose-built for accurate, stable CD playback. Its thick 3.2 mm steel mounting base and reinforced steel top plate provide superior rigidity and vibration control, ensuring every detail in your music is captured with clarity and precision.

High-Performance DAC Section

Acting as a digital-to-analog converter, the D-03R is equipped with dual ROHM BD34352EKV DAC chips configured in dual-mono mode for ultra-low distortion and wide dynamic range. Each input has dedicated low-jitter circuitry and an ultra-low-phase-noise master clock module to maintain flawless timing.

• Increased capacitor capacity (6,600 µF) provides smoother power delivery and stability.

• Digital inputs: Optical (Toslink), Coaxial (RCA), and USB.

• USB input compatibility: PCM up to 384 kHz/32-bit and DSD up to 22.5 MHz.

• S/PDIF inputs: Up to 192 kHz/24-bit PCM.

• MQA decoding supported for MQA-CD and MQA file playback, with a Bypass Mode for standard playback.

Analog Output Excellence

Because our ears understand analog, the D-03R’s analog stage is fully balanced with I/V conversion circuitry and high-quality buffer design. It offers both balanced XLR and gold-plated RCA stereo outputs, ensuring the purest connection to your amplifier or preamp.

Optimized Engineering Layout

The D-03R’s three key elements — CD transport, digital processing block, and analog output stage — are arranged in an asymmetrical left-side mechanical layout. This design optimizes signal flow, minimizes vibration, and balances internal weight for ideal performance.

User-Friendly Features

• Large high-resolution OLED display with four brightness levels, zoom mode, and auto-dimming.

• Full-function aluminum remote control with numeric keypad.

• IR input/output terminals for system integration.

• Composite, shielded, loop-less chassis reduces magnetic fields, ground impedance, and digital noise.

• LUXMAN Audio Player software (free download for Windows and macOS) supports FLAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF, MP3, DSF, and DSDIFF formats for seamless playback control.

Experience the Difference

The LUXMAN D-03R isn’t just about digital precision—it’s about musical emotion. Whether spinning a classic CD or decoding the latest high-resolution digital file, it delivers the kind of immersive, analog-like experience that only LUXMAN can achieve.
