Meet the RS2 T

The Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 T Suspended Audiophile CD Transport is a reference-grade, transport-only component built to extract Red Book CD data with maximum mechanical stability and deliver a clean, low-jitter digital stream to your DAC. A precision top-loading mechanism is mechanically isolated via a suspension system, while a resonance-rejecting carbon-fiber architecture and rigid chassis strategy help keep the laser assembly and disc-reading process exceptionally stable under real-world conditions.

Tip: Use AES/EBU where possible for robust balanced digital transmission, or I²S/Master Clock when pairing with compatible Pro-Ject RS2-series components.

Highlights & Benefits

• Transport-only purity — no internal DAC stage, keeping the signal path focused on stable disc reading and precise digital output.
• Suspended top-loading mechanism — engineered to reduce vibration sensitivity and maintain consistent tracking for bit-accurate playback.
• Magnetic clamp stability — supports secure disc coupling for reduced micro-vibration during rotation.
• Serious digital connectivity — balanced AES/EBU (XLR) plus optical and coaxial S/PDIF outputs for broad DAC compatibility.
• I²S + Master Clock (HDMI) — advanced digital interface intended to bypass limitations associated with conventional S/PDIF links when used with compatible hardware.
• Premium build — high-quality chassis execution with carbon-fiber resonance control elements and refined ergonomics.
• Reference partner for high-end DACs — the Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 T Suspended Audiophile CD Transport is purpose-built for systems where the DAC defines the sonic signature and the transport must remain mechanically and electrically quiet.

Technology & Design

CD-Pro 8 top-loading module — a precision transport platform designed for accurate data retrieval with robust mechanical behavior, ideal for a dedicated CD transport application.

Suspension system + gravity-focused layout — the disc-reading assembly is mechanically isolated to reduce resonance influence, helping preserve tracking integrity and timing stability.

Carbon-fiber resonance strategy — carbon-fiber structural elements are used to mitigate resonance and improve mechanical damping where it matters most.

Output hierarchy — S/PDIF (coax/optical) supports universal DAC connectivity; AES/EBU provides a robust balanced interface; I²S + Master Clock is optimized for compatible Pro-Ject RS2-series digital components.

In a resolving system, the Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 T Suspended Audiophile CD Transport delivers the kind of stability, timing precision, and connection flexibility demanded by serious DAC-centric listening chains.
