Naturally featuring the new Z200 styling, the Z210 is a pure audiophile CD player which benefits from Myryad's renowned audio engineering expertise. Multiple, separately regulated power supplies, massive reservoir capacitors and proprietary DAC decoupling all combine to ensure the Z210 delivers a superior sound quality with a truly excellent three dimensional soundstage.
Myryad’s use of precision metal film resistors and polypropylene film capacitors - even in its budget products in key locations - is based on many hours of listening. The use of parts such as these make a significant contribution to the open and transparent yet warm and musical sound exhibited by all Myryad’s products.

The new Myryad Z200 Series components come in a choice of two finishes: Silver or Black and are available now from authorised dealers around the world.
Said to feature 'ultra-clean, minimalistic styling, excellent build quality and outstanding sonic performance', the three are now available, at £595 for the tuner, and £695 apiece for CD player and amplifier.
The Z210 is described as 'a pure audiophile CD player', using multiple, separately-regulated power supplies, massive reservoir capacitors and proprietary DAC decoupling to ensure it 'delivers a superior sound quality with a truly excellent three dimensional soundstage'.
The tuner, meanwhile, is FM-only, with 29 presets and a built-in clock/alarm function, and a sound balanced for 'clarity, warmth and ambience'.
But why FM-only? Myryad's Alex Munro explains that 'First and foremost it’s simply about sound quality. It’s true that there is a greater proliferation on stations available via digital radio but every audiophile knows good FM broadcasts are still audibly better than DAB.'
He adds that 'The second reason is purely pragmatic. Myryad is exported to many countries around the world, a lot of which don’t have DAB services.'
The Z240 amplifier uses shortened signal paths with just one high-speed low-loss series capacitor in each channel, and discrete 'soft recovery' ultrafast rectifiers to improve dynamic range by reducing induced RF noise. And the internal wiring from output devices to speaker terminals uses QED Silver Anniversary XT cable.
The company says that the amplifier 'delivers extended, weighty and controlled bass, open and detailed mid-range, and added top-end air and sweetness'.
All three models are available in black or silver.
