The Marantz CD95 DR, a CD transport unit designed to work seamlessly with the PM-95 amplifier, which comes with its own D/A converter. It's very similar to the Philips LHH1001 and CD12, showing how closely these devices match up in quality and design.
The Marantz CD95 DR uses the CDM-1 drive mechanism, which has a swing arm for the pickup that's balanced with weights at the back for more stable movement. The drive uses a linear motor for smooth action, and the pickup has a single-beam system known for being reliable and temperature stable.
The power supply is built around a toroidal transformer, ensuring steady power to the circuits and keeping the digital circuit's power needs low.
The build is strong, with a die-cast chassis, a 3-mm steel plate at the bottom, and die-cast sides to keep vibrations away. The top cover uses a special Aluminum Raft Ceiling (ARC) structure, making it stronger and better at spreading out vibrations to avoid resonance.
For those who like to keep their favorite tracks handy, the CD95 DR has a feature called CD file bank FTS, letting you save and access your top picks easily. Once you've stored your tracks, they're set for quick playback anytime.
