The new CD players in the Evolution series benefit from many innovations. The power supplies, conversion and audio stages have been completely redesigned.
Atoll CD200 EVO : boitier
The CD 200 EVO comes in a new metal case with a superb front (silver or black) in 4mm brushed aluminum! This façade of course takes the new design of the Atoll products.
Below the drawer, a low-power OLED display gives the different reading and range information. On each side of it there are 3 control keys taking the main functions (play, stop, pause, forward/ back...).
Atoll CD200 EVO: rear panel
The rear panel is also very simple: 2 analog RCA outputs, a coaxial digital SPDIF output and a Toslink optic.
The power cord is in IEC format.
This EVO CD player can also be equipped with the optional ATOLL DC 200 digital card with 3 digital inputs: a coaxial input (24Bits/192kHz), an optical input (24Bits/192kHz) and an asynchronous USB-B input. This allows the player’s internal D/A converter to be used for external sources.
Atoll CD100 Signature: features
This CD player is equipped with the latest Teac Pure Audio CD mechanics optimized to reduce jitter. It is mounted on a central anti-resonance frame to avoid any vibrations harmful to the reading.
The CD100 EVO supports CD, CD-R, CD-RW in MP3, WMA and AAC formats. It is also compatible with the CD Text if the disc has this feature. Atoll has opted for 5 regulated power supplies to limit all interference between analog and digital. A transformer is dedicated specifically for the audio stages. The 10 regulated power supplies have a total of 30 vA + 10 + 1.6 vA, and offer a total capacity of 21450 uF!
The analog output stages are symmetric and have discrete components fully polarized in Class A.
The digital part uses the excellent Burr-Brown PCM1792 conversion chip. It offers a resolution of 24 bits over 192 kHz.
Atoll CD 200 EVO: test and listening
The Atoll CD200 EVO offers a reproduction of great finesse and remarkable elegance. Its neutrality makes it highly versatile in terms of musical styles. This CD player is particularly well-balanced and its timbre quality is surprising. It offers considerably more substance and presence than its predecessor.
The dynamic range is particularly impressive, and the resolution flawless.
This Atoll CD200 EVO CD player is a real surprise. Its lively, subtle sound reproduction will delight music lovers and audiophiles of jazz, rock and classical music.
The option of an Atoll CD Signature card is also an added bonus.
The Atoll CD200 EVO CD player is designed and superbly manufactured in France. The CD 200 EVO offers a remarkable quality/music/price ratio.

La révélation
Après de multiples hésitations sur la marque , le modèle, ...mon choix s' est porté sur ce lecteur et c' est juste parfait. Il combine précision de la scène sonore, respect des timbres , les aigus ne brillent pas et les graves sont là. Si on ajoute à celà un design classe et une télécommande respirant la qualité ma collection de cd vient de gagner quelques années. Merci pour leur patience et leurs conseils à Olivier et Franck.
