“Quantum – world first bluetooth remote controlled high-end CD transport (Shiga MKII inside).”
It is hard to say what is Quantum in just few words. As any great product, Quantum is the result of our love and passion for music reproduction at highest standards. We know that CD and vinyl will last as long you love music and even more. Your descendants will enjoy your music collection many generations, as you maybe, on your turn, already enjoy your grandpa vinyl records.
No magnetic disk (HDD) or solid storage (SSD) can provide the lifetime of a pressed CD. Sooner or later data corruption will occur and your beloved music will be lost. No hassle with PC file transfers or conversions. No computational jitter due resource hungry operating systems or badly written applications. Quantum will not alter digital information trough huge DSP (digital signal processing) and will read any Red Book format with no other fancy functions.
We started to work on this CD transport in 2010 and now we are ready to share with the world. We spent years searching for world finest parts and carefully paired Quantum with these. We had been going even further and developed an innovative way to mount smd parts, in order to lower piezoelectric effect and parasitic capacitance between component and pcb traces. At current date (Feb 2016) Vicol Audio is the single company in the world who use vertical SMD mounting.
We also developed a remote control interface for Android, making Quantum the very first one in his class who, beside infrared, use bluetooth remote control.
This place Quantum on top of the best CD transports ever made, offering world best price/performance ratio. A CD transport that will make you fall in love with your CD collection again. Just you, your CD collection and music.
Built from scratch without any off-the-shelf solutions, handmade with the utmost attention paid to the smallest detail in construction and finish. Entirely made in Romania.”
