PHILIPS LHH1000 (1989) | Reference Series

World Class Technology, European Excellence, this is the Philips LHH1000 Reference series CD player from 1989. This limited edition Reference Series LHH 1000 is a direct descendant of Philips' broadcast-standard CD recording and mastering equipment. In fact, it's the first consumer model with the professional LHH designation. With this breeding, no wonder the LHH 1000 is of exceptional quality, inside and out. For complete isolation, the transport and D/A converter are housed separately. This dual-chassis design virtually eliminates intercomponent interference and thoroughly dampens vibration. And with coaxial or optical fiber cable connecters between the two units, you get virtually error-free transmission. The result is pure sound with absolutely no distortion. No expense was spared in utilizing the materials best suited for sound. For example, Philips' top CDM-1 transport and all critical chassis components are solid diecast aluminum zinc alloy. Further, the LHH 1000 features Philips' premier creation-16-bit, four times oversampling. And the heart of the separate digital-to-analog converter is Philips' Special Select Grade TDA-1541A-S1 chip, widely regarded as the premier DAC technology. In fact, the LHH 1000 has been "recommended... in Class A of Stereophile's 'Recommended Components' listing".
