This is an excellent transport and one we have enjoyed using!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExperience audiophile-grade CD playback with the TEAC VRDS 701TB CD Transport. Featuring TEAC’s newly-developed Vibration-Free Rigid Disc-Clamping System (VRDS), this high-precision transport minimizes rotational vibration and external interference by clamping CDs to an aluminum turntable, ensuring stable disc rotation and accurate data retrieval. Designed for use with your favorite external DAC, it offers MQA core decoding, S\/PDIF optical and coaxial digital outputs, and a 10MHz external clock input for flexible system integration. With robust construction, dedicated toroidal transformers, and a semi-floating chassis to further reduce vibrations, the VRDS 701TB delivers exceptional clarity, detail, and dynamic sound—perfect for discerning listeners ready to rediscover their CD collection in stunning fidelity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe VRDS-701T CD transport utilizes TEAC's newly-developed VRDS mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VRDS is a TEAC-original CD drive mechanism that reduces rotation vibration and other unwanted vibration\u003cbr\u003eby clamping the CD to an aluminum turntable with the same diameter in order to maximize inertial mass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed in combination with a UD-701N, which is part of the same series, playback is possible\u003cbr\u003eusing the discrete DAC in the UD-701N as well as with MQA full decoding.\u003cbr\u003eOf course, you can also use it together with a DAC of your choosing, and build a system as you like.\u003cbr\u003eThe inclusion of a 10MHz clock input enables flexible integration\u003cbr\u003ewith systems that are synchronized using an external clock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNewly-developed VRDS mechanism\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures at a glance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCD transport for use in combination with an external DAC that has a digital input\u003cbr\u003eA newly-developed VRDS mechanism is used for the CD drive\u003cbr\u003eMQA core decoding function\u003cbr\u003eS\/PDIF (optical\/coaxial) digital outputs\u003cbr\u003e10MHz external clock input\u003cbr\u003eDedicated toroidal core transformers for the digital output and CD drive circuits\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarting with a drive we developed that has a long record of use in professional applications, we added VRDS technologies, which are part of our TEAC legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVibration-Free Rigid Disc-Clamping System (VRDS)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge section supports the VRDS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the bridge that supports the turntable, we carefully selected lightweight materials that are very rigid and do not transmit vibration. By naturally settling vibrations quickly, we have realized a wide, dynamic sound. The bridge, which has a torus structure made of resin, is only fixed on one side, and propagation of vibration from the CD mechanism to the opposite side through the bridge is suppressed, so the entire mechanism minimizes unwanted sympathetic vibrations.\u003cbr\u003eSemi-floating mounting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe entire CD mechanism is mounted on the sub-chassis in a semi-floating state. By controlling the transmission of vibrations between the CD mechanism and the chassis, the impact of sympathetic vibrations is abated, and natural playback sound is realized throughout the frequency range. By isolating motor vibrations from the main chassis, sympathetic vibrations within the chassis are prevented. At the same time, the CD mechanism is also isolated from external vibrations. Reading precision is also increased by isolating the CD mechanism from external vibrations.\u003cbr\u003eEnhanced digital output\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy eliminating the DAC function, the internal circuitry has been optimized for digital output. We have pursued higher audio quality by, for example, using larger components that did not fit in more limited space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMQA CDs can be played back using the built-in MQA core decoder\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VRDS-701T has a built-in MQA core decoder and can digitally output MQA CDs at 88.2 kHz . Moreover, when used together with a DAC that has an MQA rendering function, playback using MQA full decoding is also possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10MHz external clock input\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 10MHz clock input allows synchronization with an external clock. In addition to improving audio quality during playback with the VRDS-701T, this also enables synchronization of the entire system with a clock generator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePower supply enhanced using 2 high-capacity toroidal core transformers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndependent high-capacity toroidal core transformers are dedicated to the digital control section and the CD mechanism. These 2 high-capacity toroidal core transformers enable current to be supplied with greater stability.\u003cbr\u003eThorough design for vibration control\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower 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.\u003cbr\u003eThree supporting pinpoint feet made of machined steel with a unique structure\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003cbr\u003eControl connectors enable coordinated use with other devices\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRS-232C is present for integration with popular control systems, and trigger input and output connectors enable power coordination with other devices.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TEAC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47171874652300,"sku":null,"price":2300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/3308\/9164\/files\/teacvrds701tfrontdemo.jpg?v=1774990894","url":"https:\/\/www.ttvjaudio.com\/products\/teac-vrds-701t-cd-transport-demo","provider":"TTVJ Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
