CEC TL5

CD Transport

Since CEC introduced world's first Belt-Drive CD Transport in 1991, a lot of music lovers have enjoyed its rich musical sound, which CEC continues to improve on. A heavier stabilizer brings a more stable rotation of the disc and the Belt-Drive system eliminates the affects of vibration and electromagnetic noise caused by the motor rotation.

In order to read the signal recorded with Constant Linea Velocity (CLV) on CD, rotation speed should be slowed down as it goes to the outside. Usually the spindle motor controls the variation of speed. All CD players and transports place the spindle motor beneath the turntable for CD and the motor shaft works as the turntable center, this is called directdrive system. Stable and accurate rotation requires a bigger torque of motor itself, which inevitably creates certain vibration and the electromagnetic noise. In CEC TL 5 the spindle motor is placed independently from the center shaft and vibration as well as electromagnetic noise effect to the CD are thus minimized. A heavy CD stabilizer provides bigger inertia of turntable and achieves a stable and smooth rotation of discs. Smaller torque motor and longer distance from the motor to the center shaft (turntable) create the ideal fundamentals of music reproduction.

The new CEC TL 5 features multiple digital outputs: AES/EBU, COAXIAL and TOSLINK. The shortest possible signal pass and stability of signal quality have been maintained by direct mounting of all terminals to the single circuit board. Superior Fluorescent display can be dimmed and even disconnected.

By placing the turntable shaft in the center of the top loading open space the rubber belt replacement is now done with ease on the CEC TL 5.

The word about the musical cohesion, the rich detail and emotionally gripping "analogue-like" sound got out very quickly. No other CD drive has sounded so analogue to this day. There has seldom been higher quality compact disc playback in this price class!

With the belt-driven CEC TL 5 in the system, one can benefit from the advantages of this type of drive. The newest CD belt drive by CEC helps improve the tonal progression.

Test reports in international magazines as well as the testimony of our satisfied customers worldwide confirm
that we have achieved our musical objective: music reproduction on its highest level.

Same plastic quality as OEM but fit was off. Make sure correct clips are compatible
Style: 121PCS Clips with Tool for Honda/Acura, Style: 121PCS Clips with Tool for Honda/Acura
I ordered the version:121PCS Push Type Retainer Clips sold by ARKOUNIX. It says it is compatible for the following vehicles: Honda Accord Civic, CR-V, Crosstour, Fit, HR-V, Insight, Odyssey, Passport. It also fits the following Acura models: ILX, MDX, RDX, RLX. UNBOXING: Inside the storage box are 4 different style plush clips and 1 removal tool (pic1). This is a variety pack with 4 different style clips. The thinking being 1 of them have to fit your vehicle. The bad thing is that means 3 of these clip styles will not fit your vehicle and they will have no value for your vehicle. The push clips that I need for my car are the longer style #4 clips (pic3). FIT: The Arkounix brans replacements are on the left (next to the tool) and my car's OEM clips are on the right so you can see how they measure up (pics3-5). These Arkounix clips are close but not an exact match. They are about 2 mm too wide to fit in my bumpers slot. For reference, my car is a Mazda 6. I understand it's not meant to be compatible but they are very similar in picture and I thought it would fit. CONCLUSION: These clips are not sized for a universal fit. This kit has 4 distinct clip sizes that are specifically designed to fit ONLY the car models listed above. If you're hoping that these clips will fit a different make and model, make sure to check the measurements of your OEM clips first. I found out the hard way that just because the clips look similar doesn't make them compatible. A width different of just 2mm was enough to make these replacement clips incompatible with my car. I can say with certainty that these 4 sizes of Arkounix brand clips will NOT fit a Mazda 6, Pontiac G5 or Toyota Corolla because, I tried fitting these clips on both of my neighbor's cars. In conclusion, these clips are made to fit the specific Honda and Acura models listed above, ONLY.

Just get them if you think u need them!
Style: 121PCS Clips with Tool for Honda/Acura
They got just as well as the original ones in my opinion. As long as the place you're putting them in isn't damaged they fit very snug like they're supposed to. Even came with a tool to pry them off with. I already had one before I ordered these but I did appreciate that they came with the tool just in case you don't have one. The tools make the job a lot easier. I feel like I got a good deal. For just a few dollars my car looked a little better and made a little less noise since the piece I put the fastener on would rattle a bit depending on the road but not anymore! If u need these and are wondering wether you should buy them just go for it. You really don't have much to lose and they always come in handy and are good to have around. They also fit on some other cars like Nissan and probably many more too. So far they seem pretty durable but only time will tell and I will update my review if anything should happen but for now, I feel like it was money well spent. Unlike some of my other purchases!

These are quality bulbs and more reliable than halogen
Size: H7
Car that I drive is a 2008 Mazda 3 4Dr Sedan Automatic i Touring. Got so tired and fed up with felt like spending money every month or so on halogen bulbs. It was always the same old story, trip to auto zone to avoid a fix it ticket. I almost tried to buy the Sylvania brand on Amazon for cheaper but what's the use? Its STILL the SAME product. I'm done with those and never going back. The new Territory Has snapped right in without any special add on adapters, just plug and play deal. Way brighter and super easy. Love them. Can see way better at night and not have to worry about them burning out so quickly anymore. More than I can say about the Sylvania brand "Made in Germany". They're slippin
