Product Summary
The Audiolab 7000CDT is a dedicated CD transport designed to extract digital data from compact discs with exceptional precision and deliver a clean, stable digital signal to your external DAC. It takes key design influence from the flagship Audiolab 9000CDT and improves on the long-running 6000CDT platform with upgraded mechanics, improved isolation and a full-colour IPS display.
A high-precision optical system is partnered with a read-ahead digital buffer to reduce disc-reading errors and help playback remain stable even with “difficult” discs. A high-accuracy crystal oscillator helps keep jitter extremely low, while the coaxial output is fed from a differential line driver for optimum signal integrity into your DAC.
