CEC CD Player with USB Input CEC (black) [belt Drive] CD5-BK

【Voltage Compatibility】 When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction. 【Plug Type】 Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type). Please use a conversion adapter if necessary. 【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】 A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements. A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage. Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product. 【Liability】 We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer. Playable discs: General music CDs, finalized music CD-R/RW Spindle drive method: belt drive CD stabilizer: Diameter approx. 70mm, weight approx. 330g (made of brass) Headphone output: 6.3mm x 1 Power supply: AC100V, 50/60Hz Power consumption: 17W External dimensions: Approximately 435(W) x 335(D) x 109(H)mm (including buttons, terminals, and legs) Mass: Approx. 8.6kg (including CD stabilizer) Accessories: CD stabilizer, power cord, remote control, 2 AAA batteries for remote control, instruction manual, USB driver setup guide, warranty card Country of manufacture: Japan Belt drive CD mechanisms reduce the effects of vibration and electromagnetic noise by moving the motor away from the disk rotation axis and connecting it with a belt.Although the CD stabilizer's inertia produces smooth and stable disk rotation, it plays CDs with delicate beauty and rich musicality.However, there have been concerns about the longevity of the belt and the hassle of replacing it. Therefore, in CD5, the mechanism structure has been completely redesigned so that the condition of the belt can be checked at any time. You can now replace the belt yourself if necessary, just like you would with a record player. In addition, in order to make maximum use of ESS's state-of-the-art built-in DAC, we have provided a digital input and headphone jack for the first time on a belt drive CD. The USB input supports DoP playback of PCM32bit/384kHz and DSD128/5.6MHz high-resolution sound sources played on a computer. You can listen to any sound source in high quality with this one device. ■Belt Drive CD Mechanism In order to read the signal at a constant linear velocity of a music CD, the rotational speed must be gradually reduced as it moves toward the outer periphery. Normally, this linear speed adjustment is performed by a spindle motor. General CD player or transceiver The Sport uses a direct drive system in which the motor is placed directly below the disc turntable, and the turntable is directly connected to the motor shaft. However, in order to obtain controlled and stable rotation, it is necessary to use a somewhat large motor, and the signal cannot be avoided from signal distortion caused by vibrations and electromagnetic noise generated by the motor. The unique belt drive system we adopted to solve this problem uses a heavy-duty CD stabilizer to increase the mass of the turntable and utilizes inertia to achieve extremely smooth and stable disc rotation. By making the motor smaller and placing it farther away from the disk's rotational axis, and driving it from a distance with a belt, we were able to absorb vibrations, creating an ideal environment for stably and accurately reading and transmitting music signals. Furthermore, the CD5 has a structure in which the belt can be accessed at any time, making it easier to maintain and handle. ■Digital input SPDIF input is equipped with COAXIAL and TOSLINK that support up to 24bit/192kHz. USB input for connecting to a computer Power (Note 1) supports DoP playback of PCM 32bit/384kHz and DSD128/5.6MHz. (Note 1) Mac computers (X10.6.8 or later) do not need to install a USB driver, but Windows computers (XP or later) need to install a dedicated USB driver. Please prepare your own music player that supports high-resolution sound sources. Additionally, on a Windows computer, by adding an ASIO driver etc. to foobar2000, DSD64/128 playback will be possible. ■A wide range of output terminals Analog output for CD players and D/A converters is equipped with balanced XLR terminals in addition to general RCA terminals. To fully utilize the benefits and performance of this unit's balanced circuit, we recommend balanced XLR connections. In addition, when used as a CD transport, there are two digital output systems: COAXIAL (RCA) and TOSLINK (square optical).
