Description
Krell MD-10R CD Transport – 1 OWNER & Serviced!!
Includes: Krell MD-10R CD Transport (recent service), original remote, manuals, warranty card and brochure.
TRADES CONSIDERED!
The Krell MD-10R is a true reference-class CD transport from one of the most respected names in high-end audio. Designed to extract every last detail from your discs, the MD-10R was part of Krell’s top-tier lineup and is renowned for its precision engineering, ultra-low jitter performance, and tank-like build quality. When paired with a high-quality DAC, it delivers a pure, uncoloured digital signal that allows your music to shine at its absolute best.
Built in the USA, the MD-10R features Krell’s proprietary disc transport mechanism, massive linear power supply, and advanced clock circuitry to ensure exceptional stability and accuracy. The heavy milled-aluminum chassis provides resonance control and shielding from interference, contributing to the cleanest possible digital output.
Sonically, the MD-10R offers incredible clarity, dynamic punch, and an expansive soundstage. This example has had just one careful owner from new and has been recently serviced to ensure peak performance. The service included a thorough inspection and servicing of all bearings/moving parts. Everything works as expect, other than the remote which doesn't work. The remote has not been serviced, and are known to have a short lifespan; price reflects this. The condition is superb, with all original accessories included — a rarity for a model of this calibre and age (see photos for cosmetic condition).
The Krell MD-10R is sought after by serious audiophiles who know that a top-tier dedicated transport is key to unlocking the full potential of a high-end digital system. In this condition, it’s a rare find and a genuine collector’s piece.

Hi, what is the minimum height dimension allowing access for loading/ unloading discs if housed in a rack? Thanks. noeight (198 • 7:55 pm, Tue, 12 Aug )Hi the minimum can be literally 2cm if you can get your hand under there. It just comes down to how big your hand is. You can use the CD player without the lid and remove it complete by sliding out two bolts. audio-engine (458 • Tuesday, 12 August 2025 )Hey man that’s absolutely awesome only seen one other of these before someone is going to get a classic Krell that’s still up there with the best mixmastermike (169 • 10:40 pm, Tue, 12 Aug )Cheers audio-engine (458 • Tuesday, 12 August 2025 )Hi, what laser mechanism does this use & has it been replaced ? tradeontheweb (50 • 2:53 am, Wed, 13 Aug )Philips CDM3, known to be very reliable and commonly used in a wide range of players (even for professional use like broadcasting).
