Teac VRDS-701 CD Player - TEAC VRDS Mechanism, Discrete DAC, MQA-CD
Product Overview
The Teac VRDS-701 is a premium CD player that commemorates the company’s 70th anniversary, combining the legendary VRDS mechanism with a newly developed TEAC original discrete DAC. This model is designed to maximize the clarity and fidelity of CD playback while offering cutting-edge modern functionality.
The heart of the VRDS-701 is the TEAC-original VRDS (Vibration-free Rigid Disc-clamping System) mechanism. This precision drive clamps the CD to an aluminum turntable of the same diameter, maximizing inertial mass and suppressing rotation and unwanted vibrations. This highly stable rotation is key to achieving exceptional sound quality.
Instead of a standard DAC IC, the VRDS-701 employs a proprietary TEAC ΔΣ (delta-sigma) discrete DAC that utilizes unique algorithms in a discrete circuit. This design choice ensures precise conversion and faithful reproduction of the audio signal. Furthermore, the unit supports MQA-CD playback with full MQA decoding and functions as a high-resolution USB DAC, supporting up to 22.5MHz DSD and 384kHz/32-bit PCM formats.
