SA-KI-PEARL Reference Series SA-CD/CD Player | $3,650.00
As with amplifiers, you can’t judge a CD player by its specs on paper alone. You need to listen to it. And that is what Ken Ishiwata has done in designing this unsurpassed KI Pearl SA-CD Player. That’s why he built in a “bulletproof”, vibration-damped cabinet, a rock solid power supply with a Toroidal transformer and a state of the art CD mechanism. Sure, it all sounds easy, but only with decades of engineering experience and product design and an intimate understanding of music reproduction is it possible to create a product like the SA-KI Pearl.
