Metronome Le Player 4 CD Transport

The Le Player 4 is a CD Transport, it offers no analogue output so it requires an external DAC to go with it, an ideal partner for the Le DAC 2

In terms of its digital outputs it offers 1 x RCA, 1 x AES-EBU and 1 x I2S (on an HDMI connector)

Le Player 4 is a top loading CD transport, with a manual lid and a puck to hold the CD in place, there are a row of touch sensitive buttons on the top of the player to control CD playback, it comes with a remote control as well which obviously gives you the same functionality from the comfort of your chair!

Le Player 4 has an optional streaming board that gives you an Ethernet socket, once connected to your network via an Ethernet cable you can use MConnectHD on your iPad or iPhone to stream music from Tidal and or Qobuz. Le Player 4+ is not yet Roon certified, but this is in the process of happening and I can confirm it does work with Roon.

When streaming the display shows you what is playing and also shows you a monochrome image of the album art work as well.

To have the streaming board fitted at the time of purchase is £1800, it can be retrofitted and is £2200 if this is done.

As with the other Metronome items the build quality is superb, weighing it at 11kg. It comes with 3 feet as standard out of the box, but also included are 3 magnetic conical feet, that snap into place when offered up to the bottom of the feet.

Available in both black and silver
