As compelling as the new high-resolution audio CD formats are, the sheer mass of music titles available ensures that CD playback will be with us well into the foreseeable future.And with the emergence of digital music formats such as MP3, we can also see computerbased files finding a place with quality audio systems.The DX-7355 CD player brings this added dimension to your music entertainment. Look to the fundamental design concepts of separate, audiophile-quality playback components—a precise digital-to-analog conversion section (with a high-quality DAC); a large, well regulated power supply; competent analog circuits; and a vibration-resistant design.You’ll find them expertly bundled into the DX-7355 CD player that draws on Onkyo’s technical design skill and musical sensitivity.
Integrated amplifiers have definitely found their place in the audio world. With some compelling advantages—space-efficient size, straightforward connectivity, fewer cable requirements, performance levels equivalent to those from separate pre- and power amplifiers—the music lover can now build a cost-effective and convenient music system. Consequently, many manufacturers are putting their best efforts into the design of these components. The A-9155 integrated amplifier is a superb example of audio design focused on user requirements. Based around discrete output stage circuitry, a well-regulated power supply and robust build quality, the core engineering is in place for a finely balanced music system. Incorporating up to five audio components—such as a CD player, a tuner and a turntable through phono-equalizer circuitry, and an iPod through an external dock—the A-9155 is an excellent choice for those wanting something more from home audio.
