Lecteur CD Multi Source avec DAC PCM/DSD

T + A was the first High-End manufacturers to equip a CD player with additional digital sources. The idea was unusual at the time, but it was certainly logical and justified. Our first machine to incorporate the principle was the E-Series Music Player. The sound quality of a digital music source is determined to a great extent by the quality of the digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) employed. Since T+A CD players had always boasted excellent converters, it made a good deal of sense to add additional digital sources to them, such as a network streaming client, a tuner and various inputs for external digital sources, instead of producing a separate case for each individual source. This makes obvious economic sense, but is also sensible in technical terms, since there is no need for additional cases, converters, mains power supplies and cable connections. It is much more effective to build one really superior converter and play back all the sources through it – even though that converter is more expensive in the first place.
