Manufacturer Description
Your systems digital front-end is a vital link in the audio reproduction chain. The exacting process of retrieving digital data and converting it to analog without the influence of digital noise is a key determinant in assessing the class of different playback components. Also, the ability to control timing inaccuracies (jitter) is another crucial factor in the quality of audio reproduction of digital sources like CDs and MP3s. The DX-7555S audiophile-grade CD player has been designed with these considerations in mind. With Onkyos Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry (VLSC), the digital signal is protected from pulse noise, and with a super precision clock, a precise timing reference is maintained. By combining quality parts like a sophisticated 192 kHz/24-bit DAC with Onkyos renowned build quality, the DX-7555 will deliver digital audio sources with the accuracy they deserve.
Key Technology Features: Super precision master clock: (+/- 1.5 ppm) for accurate audio signal.
192 kHz/24bit AD Converters: Costly, extremely powerful digital-to-analog converters , that not only boast a dynamic range of 120 dB, they process information faster and are virtually resistant to clock jitter, to ensure the best possible performance from DVD-Audio, DVD-Video and audio CD.
RI (Remote Interactive): With Onkyos exclusive RI (Remote Interactive) system capability, you can integrate and operate all compatible components through a single remote control. Whats more, RI capability enables you to simply connect the iPod® to your receiver through Onkyos RI Dock for the iPod (DS-A1). Your iPod effectively becomes another Onkyo component from which you can relish a fuller sound that just cant be experienced through headphones. RI capability will also give you remote operability of your iPod for hands-off control over your digital music.
VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry): Conventional D/A conversion methods reduce digital pulse noise at the conversion stage but cant remove it completely. Previously only found on our high-end components, VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) employs a unique D/A conversion circuit to overcome this problem. Data is converted between sampling points and these points are joined with analog vectors in real-time to produce a smooth output wave form. The result a virtually noiseless, smooth analog signal based on the digital source to bring out even the most subtle of nuances in your music, movie soundtracks and even MP3s.
MP3 Playback: This audio format achieves about a 10:1 compression over conventional CD audio. What does this mean? You can store many more songs using the same amount of space. For example, a standard 650MB CD can hold more than 200 songs in MP3 format. Various bitrates allow for higher or lower quality, depending on the desired sound quality of the final recording.
