Topaz CD10

The Cambridge Audio Topaz CD10 is a compact disc player designed to deliver exceptional audio performance, ease of use, and value. It features a single front-loading tray and a rugged chassis with a brushed aluminum front-panel, ensuring durability and minimizing resonance for improved sound quality. The player utilizes a Wolfson 8761 digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for high-quality audio reproduction. The double-sided surface-mounted PCBs used in the design help to optimize sound quality by reducing signal paths. The CD10 supports playback of standard CD-Audio as well as finalized CD-R and CD-RW discs, and it can also play MP3 and WMA files recorded onto these discs. A front-panel alphanumeric LCD displays playback information, including the number of tracks and total length of the disc. Key features include direct track selection via a remote control, fully programmable playback for up to 20 tracks, skip/scan functions, and repeat/random playback options. The player provides both analog and digital outputs, including an RCA output for connection to home stereo equipment and a coaxial digital output for connection to digital receivers or external DACs. Overall, the Cambridge Audio Topaz CD10 combines thoughtful design and advanced technology to enhance the listening experience.
