First impressions are strong. The CR-715DAB CD
receiver oozes class with its slightly concave front panel and robust build.
What lies beneath is also admirable
You’re looking at a switching amplifier design that
uses Onkyo’s Vector Line (VL) Digital technology to remove spike noise during
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) with a high-instantaneous current capability that
helps to negate speaker impedance fluctuations and maintain audio quality
throughout the frequency range
On the CD drive side, the inclusion of Vector Linear
Shaping Circuitry (VLSC) eliminates noise and maintains the purity of the
audio signal, a particularly useful benefit if you make use of digital music
files
Quite unlike any compact CD receiver released by
Onkyo before, the CR-715DAB shows a new direction for compact CD receiver
systems
