"The Parasound CD 1 is the result of a collaboration between Parasound and Holm Acoustics in Denmark. The CD 1 demonstrates that CDs can sound significantly better than anyone has imagined possible. The potential of the 16 bit CD format is fully realized for the first time in the CD 1

The Parasound CD 1 demonstrates a new method for playing Compact Discs. To begin with, it employs a CD ROM drive instead of a conventional CD drive. The CD ROM drive is connected to a passively-cooled Intel ITX computer. It uses the Linux operating system kernel and Holm’s proprietary software that improves the reading of CD disc data. The CD ROM drive is set to run at four times the speed of a conventional CD player drive in order to accumulate a vast amount of data quickly. Because the CD spins at four times the normal speed, the CD 1 has the advantage of being able to read sections of a disc as many times as needed to significantly reduce read errors."
