Roksan Attessa
Roksan Attessa CD transport designed to be paired with an Attessa amplifier, with a streamlined design aimed at limiting laser signal jitter.
Description
The Roksan Attessa CD Transport is a player dedicated to playing compact discs, without an amplification stage or built-in converter. It has been designed to work alongside an amplifier from the Attessa range, whether the streaming model or the integrated model, so as to form a coherent system with it dedicated to CD playback.
Its design favours circuit simplicity: Roksan states that it has limited unnecessary integrated circuits in order to promote maximum retrieval of the data present on the disc. The path travelled by the signal from the laser has also been shortened, with the aim of reducing jitter, the phenomenon that can affect the timing precision of the audio signal. Firmware specific to the Attessa range complements this approach, dedicated to CD playback.
This transport is aimed at owners of an Attessa amplifier wishing to build a CD source that is coherent with their electronics, without seeking to incorporate a network player or a separate DAC. It will suit listening centred on physical CD playback, within a hi-fi setup conceived as a homogeneous system rather than an assembly of disparate components.

What to check before buying used
The optical assembly and loading tray deserve careful checking: a worn laser can cause skipping or refusal to play certain discs, while a tray that forces or struggles to open often indicates worn mechanics. It is also worth ensuring that the firmware specific to the Attessa range is up to date and that communication with a paired Attessa amplifier works without error. Checking the rear connections, particularly the digital link to the amplifier, helps rule out any loose contact.
