About the DD35 CD Transport
The DD35 is the transport in Primare’s 35 series. It leaves out the DAC and analogue stages of the CD35 and puts the effort into a low-resonance TEAC drive and an ultra-low-noise digital output with its own discrete power supply.
Primare designed it with their DAC-equipped modular models in mind: I25, I35 and PRE35 fitted with a DAC module. It works just as well with any outboard DAC or digital input.
It matches the full-size 35 series in width and style, with IR, 12 V trigger and RS232 for system control.

Questions about the DD35 CD Transport
Can the DD35 play CDs on its own?
Only into a DAC. It has no analogue outputs, so it needs a DAC, or an amplifier or preamp with a digital input.
Which Primare amplifiers does it suit?
The I25, I35 and PRE35 when fitted with the DM36 DAC module (the DAC and Prisma versions).
