Description :
The Myryad MCD 200 cd player was one of the genesis products from Myryad and was a part of the M series. Myryad Systems came together in the partnership of Chris Short, former owner and managing director of Mordaunt-Short, Chris Evans, a founder and director of Arcam, and David Evans, a veteran of NAD. The M Series components are their top of the line components, and put forth a luxury look and feel,that far surpass the competition. These are not entry level audio components. The Myryad MCD 200 is an exemplary redbook cd player which is solidly built to a very high standard. Though the Myryad is not in the league of a Classe, Krell or Mark Levinson cd players, it is nonetheless more than acceptable. Critical acclaim by the European audio journals put the Myryad MCD 200 on the map.
The Myryad MCD 200 exhibits a musical signature free from grain and edge. It has a wonderful midrange and one of the most well defined bass signatures heard at its price/performance range. Make no mistake this is a thoroughly modern single chassis cd player of exemplary build and sonic signature, that is not often found. The MCD 200 does not dissappoint and more than delivers its price/performance ratio. Its outright musicality is nothing short of mesmerizing and it is very hard not to get spoiled by the sonics of this player. If Classical or Jazz music is the user's preference, then he has found the cd player. If it is Rock music, the cd player may be a little laid back in overall presentation. As far as UK designed and built CD Players the MCD 200 is clearly a top five contender. The MCD 200 stands alone on its own merits and is a solid consideration for anyone seeking an exceptional redbook CD player.
