TEAC VRDS-701 CD Player, Black

The TEAC VRDS-701 CD Player is designed for audiophiles who demand the highest quality in CD playback and digital audio. It features the newly developed VRDS mechanism, which reduces unwanted vibrations for more accurate disc reading, and a TEAC Delta-Sigma discrete DAC that delivers exceptional sound quality. The dual mono structure and fully balanced transmission ensure outstanding channel separation and a wide soundstage. The inclusion of low-phase-noise crystal oscillators for both 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz multiples ensures precise timing for all digital processing, reducing jitter. The player supports high-resolution audio formats, including 22.5 MHz DSD and 384 kHz/32-bit PCM, when used as a USB DAC, ensuring you can enjoy your entire music library—from CDs to high-resolution digital files—in the best possible sound quality. Its TEAC Quad Volume Control System provides precise gain in fixed 0.5 dB increments, allowing direct connection to a power amplifier, bypassing the need for a preamp. The power transformers are mounted on a floating structure to isolate them from the main chassis, while the side fins for heat dissipation are specially shaped to prevent sympathetic vibrations.
