The Signature Series CD players have benefited from many innovations, whether in terms of power supplies or audio and conversion stages. In addition, all of these devices can now accommodate a 24 bits/192 kHz DAC board relying on the player’s internal converter. The USB input is asynchronous.
The CD100 Signature comes in a new metal case with a superb 4mm brushed-aluminium front panel (silver or black)! Of course, this front panel takes the new design of Atoll products. Below the tray, a low power consumption OLED display gives the different playback and range information. On each side, there are three control buttons that take over the main functions (play, stop, pause, forward/backward). The back panel provides an asymmetrical stereo analogue output, a digital output in S/PDIF coaxial format and a Toslink optical output.
This CD player features TEAC Pure Audio CD mechanics optimized to reduce jitter to a minimum. It is mounted on a central anti-resonant chassis to avoid any vibration that would damage the playback. The CD100 Signature player is compatible with CD, CD-R, MP3 formats CD-RW, WMA and AAC. It is also compatible with the CD Text if the CD has one.
To limit all interference, Atoll opted for four regulated power supplies, dedicated to analogue and digital. A transformer is used specifically for the audio stages.
Can optionally be equipped with an upgrade module with three digital inputs.
