Overview

Metronome are honest and upfront about using an off the shelf Philips CDM12 Pro drive as the basis for the CD3 Signature, for good reason. The architecture surrounding the drive and modifications to it are beyond most other implementations of the drive.

6Moons describe this best "A CD spinning in air creates static... (by) swapping out the spindle for a stainless steel rod whose diameter equals the hole in a CD... Though made of stainless steel, the rod is magnetic and the puck attaches to it. Besides making for a solid transmission between motor and CD, the new axle is also a perfect drain for static electricity... When this is shunted to ground, it can't distort the signal." A magnetic Delrin puck is used to secure the CD in place.

The 44.1kHz/16-bit CD signal is upsampled to 96KHz and 24-bit before being processed by the 192kHz DAC.

The build quality is exceptional, with a front plate machined from a solid slab of 2cm thick aluminum and the main chassis is cased in 3mm thick sheet metal. 

The power supply includes four transformers and six regulations.
