REDGUM RGCD5ENR CD Player & RGDAC5
Now SUPERCEDED.
But if History is your thing, read on because the Signature Series RGCD5ENR and its DAC, the RGDAC5, were first released in 1998. In fact, to be more accurate, how they have evolved into the RGDAC8 actually started back in 1997 with what was known as the “Ugly DAC-ling”. (This was due to its lack of a drive so it had to be given its ‘5’ a little later.)
Looking back to the story that continued on into 2019 …

RGDAC5 Signature Series DAC
The RGDAC5 has moved on with the addition of a USB input whilst offering the same design as the legendary RGCD5ENR (minus its CDROM drive and associated power supply).
ALL REDGUM CD Players and DACs ** have always had an additional chip to reclock and reshape the data – from the start, most unusual in the world of CD players!
So, when we say that this RGDAC5 unit will turn any, repeat “any” CD transport or DVD player with ‘digital out’ into a stunning CD Player! … well, we have yet to be contradicted!
Even better (in case you’re desperate), you can remain in your comfort zone by using the remote controls that came with “any” of them.

** Footnote re REDGUM CDP/DAC Reviews:
When reading any reviews about the REDGUM RGCD2, RGCD5/RGCD5ENR models, you are hearing about the sound of each related DAC model (when sold as a stand-alone product). In other words, to find out what a RGDAC5 sounds like, then read any review for a RGCD5 or RGCD5ENR (aka the RGCD5 plus a filter upgrade). And for the RGDAC2, read reviews for the RGCD2.

REDGUM Splendens (Pre – Power) System
The more power it gives you, well, the more words fail us to describe the SPLENDENS! Except for the obvious >250W/ch (8Ω).
The clue is in its origins. Simply put, take the the RGM175 Monoblock System (175W/ch), upgrade it to the Signature Series RGM175ENR (200W/ch). And then let it quietly evolve over the years.
Having now morphed into the Splendens Monoblock Pre-Power System, it still brings together the the principles of the RG175p Dual Mono Volume Passive Preamp with two RG175ENRm Signature Series Monoblock Power Amplifiers. And then some.
So while you are finding the words for it in the music, watch out, too, for what the musicians are thinking as they play!!
