CX SERIES

Rewarding Performance

There comes a point when the time is right to move forward. A time to raise the bar on your listening, to hear every last detail and nuance. That’s where  CX Series comes in. They’re hi-fi separates, made by music. Your music.  

CX Series  is the sound you’ve always promised yourself. Amplification to give you the power, detail and control you deserve. A reimagined network player that’s sure to win your heart along with many international plaudits. And a CD transport that breathes new life into your prized collection of silver discs.

We appreciate that buying new hi-fi separates isn’t something you do every day, but we’re confident that CX Series will reward your trust by revealing previously unheard clarity and emotional depth in your favourite albums.

CX Range Stack
  • “CX is Simply the Best in its League! 

    I decided it was time to upgrade the hi-fi. I went all out and ordered the CXA81, CXN and CXC. 

    The level of quality in the whole setup is simply stunning. The new CX range offers fantastic detail in the mid & top end with plenty of depth and warmth in the lower end of the spectrum (without over-emphasis).”

One Step Beyond

CX sits at the centre of our line-up. This best-selling series takes audio performance further forward than our acclaimed entry-level AX series. As CX shares design cues with much of our range, it’s possible to upgrade a system whenever you’re ready. 

You can even add a matching Alva turntable, extending the detailed CX sound to vinyl too.

CXA81 next to What Hi-Fi? Awards

Engineered in London, Respected Globally

What sets CX apart is greater use of proprietary components and audio innovation – topped with an even more rigorous design, engineering and testing regime.

The fruits of this labour are recognised by a stack of international hi-fi awards from experts, and a legion of devoted CX listeners around the globe.

Timeless Style

When buying hi-fi at this level you’re making a commitment to the future. We recognise this, so we carefully select components and materials that will survive many years’ use – such as robust steel chassis with sculpted aluminium facias. 

We keep switches and lights to a minimum to maintain a pure audio signal path, but also because minimalistic design doesn’t date.

Enjoy Yourself

If you love music, you don’t buy new hi-fi on a whim. You could spend months – even years – researching to find exactly what you want. It’s important to listen, so head to your local hi-fi store with some favourite albums, and audition – really loud. If you don’t have a dealer nearby, we offer a 60-day home trial.
 

CXA81 Mk II

Hear the Heartbeat

An amplifier lies at the heart of every system, and thanks to a refresh CXA81 Mk II is ready to drive your set-up into the future. It’s designed to complement the rest of our CX Series, while able to hold its own among separates in its own price range and beyond.

A Well Networked Player

We shouldn’t have favourites, but CXN100 is something else – hi-fi specialists and our listeners agree. CXN100 will instantly transform a classic hi-fi stack into a system with a bright future. 

And because it’s a network device, CXN100 can be upgraded remotely, via our StreamMagic platform, to receive new features and services.

CXC CD Player

We’re Into CD

You’ve spent years collecting CDs, so why shouldn’t they get the CX sound upgrade too? CXC is a CD transport, which means it’s got just one job: read CDs perfectly. That signal is then sent to a Digital to Analogue Converter, such as that found inside a CX amp, for it to do the rest.

Come Together

With CX Series you can build a system that offers the convenience of today’s ways to enjoy music, but one that places the emotional response centre-stage. 

CX respects all music – with a level of clarity you’ve perhaps not heard before. Buying new hi-fi kit is something to be savoured. Join us as we explore CX Series.
