Audiolab 7000CDT CD Transport

Sporting a range of upgrades over the critically acclaimed 6000CDT, Audiolab’s new 7000 Series CD transport is the perfect CD-playing companion to Audiolab’s 7000A integrated amplifier

Under the hood, enhancements have been made to the power supply and output circuitry, including a higher quality toroidal transformer. Great care has been taken over the 7000CDT’s construction and circuit layout, to combat the sonically deleterious effect of vibrations generated externally and by the mechanism’s high-spin-velocity motor, and to protect the most sensitive elements from electrical noise.

The 7000CDT uses a high-precision optical system with an electronic data buffer for accurate and seamless CD playback. Very similar technology to the 9000CDT, the 7000CDT uses a read-ahead digital buffer to reduce disc-reading failures, helping it play scratched and damaged CDs that may be unreadable by other more conventional mechanisms.

Isolation From Vibration

The low-friction loading tray, sturdy aluminium base and chassis of the 7000CDT work to tackle vibrations that are experienced due to the mechanics of a high-spin-velocity motor. Further, the transport is mounted in its own, electromagnetically shielded enclosure with a dedicated power supply. All of these contribute to the exemplary digital signal extraction, while the proven resonance reduction further improves performance and onward effect in ancillary Hi-Fi equipment and signal chains.

Digital File Friendly

In addition to class-leading CD playback, the 7000CDT also plays digital music files via a dedicated USB ‘Type A’ connection, to the rear of the unit. Every significant hi-res and lossless audio format is catered for, including WAV, AAC and WMA, as well as compressed legacy MP3 formats.
