TEAC VRDS-701 CD Player

STATE-OF-THE-ART DAC: Comprised of discrete circuitry that uses field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and incorporates our original algorithms on both channels. The end result? Improved signal to noise (S/N) ratio - each channel processes in monaural mode and delivers DSD512 (22.5MHz) native and 384kHz/32-bit pulse-code modulation (PCM) playback capabilities. BUILT-IN MQA DECODER: With full MQA decoder built-in, your highest res file formats such as FLAC and WAV will playback with all the quality and depth of the original recording. Great for those seeking a powerful and refined approach to high fidelity home entertainment. PROPRIETARY VRDS TECHNOLOGY: The pinnacle in CD transport technology, this single-well CD Player utilizes a Vibration-Free Rigid Disc-Clamping System (VRDS) derived from the TEAC’s flagship HiFi line, Esoteric. Incorporating our newly developed Delta Sigma 32-bit discrete DAC and functioning as a preamplifier, the VRDS-701 matches seamlessly with the TEAC AP-701B Stereo Power Amplifier. AUDIOPHILE-LEVEL ACOUSTIC EXPRESSION: Four TEAC HCLD buffer amp circuits allow different drive modes (fully balanced and parallel), working in-sync with TEAC QVCS volume control for ideal sound quality. The VRDS-701 also features three upconversion settings: 2x, 4x, and 8x. BUILT-IN HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER: Featuring a dedicated driver that uses a high-output circuit with low distortion, the VRDS-701’s headphone amplifier achieves a high S/N ratio and 2000V/μs through rate, equivalent to a current transmission enhancing output line driver. This will maximize the potential of your headphones so you can kick back and relax in perfect stereo. STABLE DATA TRANSMISSION: Using Bulk Pet USB transmission technology, the VRDS-701 achieves constant transmission at a fixed data volume, enabling steady data transmission by smoothing the loads for processing via transmitting computer and receiving USB DAC. Since the audio quality can be altered by changing the load on the computer, four preset transmission modes can be chosen according to the desired audio quality.
