Enjoy precise playback of your CDs and digital music sources with the black VRDS-701 70th Anniversary CD Player with Hi-Res DAC from Teac. Celebrating 70 years of audio innovation, the VRDS-701 features Teac's vibration-free rigid disc-clamping system (VRDS) to optimize disc stability and improve sound quality. In addition to the single disc CD player, the VRDS-701 is equipped with digital coaxial, Optical, and USB-C audio inputs.

The high-quality DAC offers full MQA decoding and support for up to 22.5 MHz DSD and 384 kHz/32-bit PCM resolution. Focusing on sound quality, the entire system is built on a fully balanced dual-mono structure, preventing interference between channels and greatly improving the signal-to-noise ratio. Every part of the VRDS-701 has been designed to thoroughly reduce and control vibration, right down to the three supporting pinpoint feet.

Vibration-Free Rigid Disc-Clamping System (VRDS)

This TEAC-original CD drive mechanism reduces rotation vibration of the disc itself as well as unwanted mechanism vibration by clamping the CD to an aluminum turntable with the same diameter and maximizing inertial mass in order to stabilize rotation. Servo current is reduced with the turntable by correcting disc warping and distortion and improving the relative optical axis precision of the pickup and disc pit side. This realizes reduced disc reading errors and outstanding audio quality.

Dual-Mono Structure

Using independent left and right toroidal core transformers, Teac has employed an indulgent dual-mono structure for the circuitry from the power supply circuit through the D/A converter section to the analog output stage. The dual-mono structure has two sets of circuitry that provide complete mono paths for each channel. This prevents interference between the left and right signals and realizes rich musical expression that emphasizes perception of the sound space and three dimensionality.

Fully balanced transmission of the left and right analog output signals from D/A conversion to the final output stage contributes greatly to improving the signal-to-noise ratio and extending the dynamic range. The sense of air that high-resolution audio sources have can be transmitted without loss in an even purer state.

MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) Full Decoder

MQA is a high-quality audio codec for playing music with the uncompromised quality of the master captured in the studio. The VRDS-701 includes an MQA decoder that controls waveforms converted from digital to analog at a precision as high as 5ms in order to achieve analog waveforms that are more faithful to the original sound sources. By greatly reducing temporal blur, which tends to occur at points when sound pressure differences are extreme, including when sounds begin suddenly, playback sound that is close to the original source in terms of human hearing can be achieved.

The inclusion of an MQA full-decoder not only enables enjoyment of MQA CDs, it also makes decoding of MQA data from the digital inputs possible, allowing playback of MQA files from a computer when used as a USB DAC.

10 MHz External Clock Input

The 10 MHz clock input allows synchronization with an external clock. In addition to improving audio quality during playback with the VRDS-701, this also enables synchronization of the entire system with a clock generator.

Internal High-Precision Dual Clock

This player has low-phase-noise type high-precision crystal oscillators. Along with 44.1 kHz for CD playback, it supports 48 kHz clock, which is necessary for playing files from a computer when used as a USB DAC.

Bulk Pet USB Transmission

When sending vast quantities of digital data for high-resolution audio sources through USB cables, large discrepancies can occur in the processing loads of both the transmitting computer and the receiving USB DAC. This creates the possibility of the sound breaking up and other problems. Using Bulk Pet USB transmission technology, however, achieves constant transmission at a fixed data volume, enabling steady data transmission by smoothing the loads for processing on both ends. 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.

Thorough Design for Vibration Control

Power transformers, which tend to generate vibration, are mounted on a floating structure, separating and isolating them from the bottom panel. The side fins for heat dissipation have been tailored so that each one has a different length in order to eliminate sympathetic vibrations. The circuit board attachment screws have been kept to a minimum. Furthermore, steel pinpoint feet that use an original TEAC design with a new structure to provide a suitable amount of play in the connection between them and the bottom panel, are employed to thoroughly control vibrations that could affect audio quality.

Integration Friendly

RS-232C is present for integration with popular control systems, and trigger input and output connectors enable power coordination with other devices.

TEAC HR Audio Player Provided Free

High-resolution audio sources, up to 22.5 MHz DSD or 384 kHz/32-bit PCM, can be easily played from Windows and Macintosh computers using this free dedicated software. Digital audio data can be transmitted with certainty under the best conditions by simply starting the software and selecting the VRDS-701 that is connected using a USB cable. Since the software is designed for use with this product, making USB audio settings is trouble-free.
