CD Transport

CEC opened a new chapter in music reproduction in 1991 with the world‘s first Belt Drive CD Transport, the now infamous TL 1. Creative mastery of vibration control techniques resulted in this landmark product, whose uniquely analog musicality has been hailed as nothing less than revolutionary in digital audio. Since then CEC has continued to improve on it’s designs and launched many globally highly acclaimed and awarded devices. With the CEC TL 2N, the breakthroughs of the previous double belt drive systems have been refined even further than we imagined possible!


The completely new developed double belt drive mechanism has been installed to be fully centered on a larger aluminum chassis for increased stablization of rotation and no adjustment of mechanism height. While the double belt drive system with the large diameter precision flywheel stabilizer improves the accuracy of reading the music signal. The detail, richness of tone and spatial information are just breathtaking.

The concentrated application of technical knowledge, innovative capacity and decades of experience have paid off. Pride, craftsmanship, and music reproduction on compact disc have reached a new summit with the CEC TL 2N. In order to read the signal recorded with Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) on the CD, rotational speed should be decreased as it tracks the outer edge of the disk. Usually the spindle motor controls the variation of speed.

All CD players and transports place the spindle motor beneath the turntable for the CD and the motor shaft works as the turntable center, this is called a direct drive system. The advantage of the CEC belt drive CD system over the normal direct drive has been proved by the long life of CEC’s world’s first belt-drive system, since its introduction in early 1990’s.

Simply, in order to eliminate the vibration and electromagnetic noise from the motors (both spindle motor for CD and feed motor for laser pick-up) a double belt-drive system has been utilized, enabling the motors to be located away from the spindle and laser pick-up. A large (Ø 12cm 380 grams) stabilizer to the turntable itself, increases the effective mass and inertial stability, high flywheel effect, stabilization of the disc rotation.

CEC SUPERLINK
The proprietary CEC SUPERLINK connection system transmits music signals and synchronization clock signals separately with 4 BNC 75Ω cables, requiring no encoding/decoding process for data transmission, and using the master clock generated by the D/A converter to achieve a closed loop synchronization. The transmission system minimizes deterioration of the music signal and jitter. Sampling frequency of CDs is 44.1kHz,this can be up-sampled to 88.2kHz or up to 176.4kHz. (High resolution field covers even 96 and/or 192kHz as well. CEC’s listening test shows 88.2/176.4kHz sound better than 96/192kHz). Up-sampling is not useful and feasible with SUPERLINK. Enjoy the rich and musical sound reproduced by the new double belt drive CD transport TL 2N with the CEC’s proprietary technology.

UP-SAMPLING
Sampling frequency of CDs is 44.1kHz. This can be up-sampled to 88.2kHz or up to 176.4kHz. (High resolution field covers even 96 and/or 192kHz as well. CEC's listening test shows 88.2/176.4kHz sound better than 96/192kHz).

Up-sampling is not useful and feasible with SUPERLINK.

DIGITAL OUTPUTS and SAMPLING RATE
The new CEC TL 2N features multiple digital outputs:

  • SUPERLINK x 1: 2.5Vp-p/75 ohm (BNC x 4)
  • Sampling Rate: 44.1kHz
  • AES/EBU x 1: 2.5Vp-p/110 ohm (2-pin hot)
  • Sampling Rate: 44.1kHz, 88.2kHz, 176.4kHz
  • COAXIAL x 1: 0.5Vp-p/75 ohm
  • Sampling Rate: 44.1kHz, 88.2kHz, 176.4kHz
  • TOS x 1: -21 to -15dBm EIAJ
  • Sampling Rate: 44.1kHz, 88.2kHz, 176.4kHz

WORD CLOCK INPUT
A BNC terminal is equipped to input 44.1kHz world clock signal generated by an external clock generator. TL2N reproduces the servo clock from the external word clock to combine the system clock resulting in the elimination of jitter. (NOTE: not useful with SUPERLINK.) The shortest possible signal pass and stability of signal quality have been maintained by direct mounting of all terminals to the single circuit board. Superior Fluorescent display can be dimmed and even disconnected. The musical cohesion, the rich detail and emotionally gripping „analogue-like“ sound is immediately apparent. No other CD drive has sounded so analogue. With the new CEC TL 2N, one can benefit from the advantages of this type of drive. Test reports in international magazines as well as the testimony of our satisfied customers worldwide confirm that we have exceeded our musical objective: music reproduction on it‘s highest level.

    Pretty Good But Not Perfect!
    Size: 28'' X 34''
    I have been using two of these frames for my miniature poodle puppy for almost a month now and while they are useful, they could be improved. The size of the frames are great for our miniature size poodle puppy and the Amazon pads that fit the frames absorb well without leaking underneath. The grips on the bottom of the frame keep it in place so it does not slide across floor. The frame hinges in the center so you can easily carry it through doorways. I am in my 60's so it is nice to be able to carry it to my work table in order to change pads while standing up. My 4 month old 10 pound puppy can make a dinner plate size circle of pee onto the pad first thing in the morning. 4 large pees are easily held by the pee pads before needing to change it but we prefer to change the pads more often for sanitary reasons. Not sure if you have a very large breed dog that these would work for you. Our puppy likes going on these without hesitation so they are comfortable for him to walk around on and turn to find just the right spot! Compared to other brands I have looked at this is a great value for money and worth a try to help with potty training your pup. Our puppy sleeps in an X-pen inside of our home at night and when we are gone so these help with keeping the pads where we want them. We have two - one inside X-pen and one by door where we are training puppy to go outside. These frames are nice in appearance and seem like they will last but they are a little awkward to use compared to another brand I purchased which was more durable and easier to change pad. I ended up with these because other brands do not offer such a large size (28 x 34). Our main complaints about these frames are: 1. The top frame is hinged and a little wobbly to manuever over the edges of the pee pads. Another brand, while a bit smaller, has a solid one piece frame that goes over entire pad in one step. This frame requires a three step process of laying pad down, pulling edges out flat and placing one side of frame down and then repeating on other side. There is usually a bit of adjustment that needs to be done and so requires opening and closing the frame again for adjustments. 2. The Amazon pee pads that fit this frame hold the pee well without leaking but have very thin tissue paper like edges (blue) that do not extend out far enough to make capturing the edges of the pee pad under the frame very easy to maneuver. It would be a game changer if the pads were made at least 1" bigger around length and width so edges are firmly held in place. 3. Our tiny 10 pound poodle pup is able to easily dig out edges of pad and tear it up. Not as bad as a loose pad by any means, but blue edges are exposed at side centers where frame hinges and there is no cover of edges (unlike a one piece frame) and the blue color seems to attract him. He can dig and loosen pad on any side because there is no way to hide and hold down all of the blue edges of pee pad. I am still using these to potty train and, as I said earlier, these are way better than loose pee pads. I may shop for even larger size pee pads in the future to better lock down all of the edges without so much difficulty.

    Good product for dog training.
    Size: 22'' X 22''
    Work for the most part. Dogs will chew on it so wipe it down with dawn dish soap. Hard to clean where it clips down.

    Saving My Floors
    Size: 28'' X 34'', Size: 28'' X 34''
    Omg, what a game changer. My pups like to destroy the pads whenever they get the chance to. With this they still try but never succeed. I will say that it can be a little sturdier as the handles are a little flimsy, but I manage and it does the job. It's very easy to use when I change the pads and I use 2 pads for coverage. I just placed it where I usually place their pads and it fits right in the spot. They are trained to go outside but on rainy days this comes in handy. To save my floors it's definitely worth the money spent.

    Picky dog approved!
    Color: S6-muti-color, Color: S6-muti-color
    I have wasted so much money on dog balls that they won't even pick up! They finally were obsessed with the Kong rubber green/blue or red/blue ones, but they're $3+. each, and they break from the dogs squishing it. I honestly had zero expectations on these, and they BOTH picked them up on the first throw! That's huge!! Seem to work fine in the ChuckIt. As for the squeaker, at first I was like "Oh nooooo." when they both loudly started! Much to my (and my neighbors') happiness, the squeakers stopped working after a couple minutes. 🤣
