Taking its retro-styling cues from Onkyo's high-end components, the new mid-range DX-7555 CD player has been designed to partner the recently introduced A-9755 and A-7555 stereo amplifiers.
Under the hood of the DX-7555 there's a Wolfson Microelectronics WM8740 192 kHz/24-bit DAC (digital-to-analogue converter), especially designed for demanding digital audio applications. The DX-7555 also employs a high-purity, heavy-gauge shielded cable to directly output the digital bitstream from the disc to the back panel. This is said to produce a noise-free digital audio signal that is less susceptible to interference. Previously only available on Onkyo's high-end components, VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) features too, which employs a unique D/A conversion circuit to reduce digital pulse noise.
The DX-7555 is out now priced at a pretty competitive £400.
