TEAC PD-505T CD Transport

TEAC PD-505T CD Transport The PD-505T is a long-anticipated addition to our Reference 500 Series, featuring a newly designed CD drive inspired by the proven specifications of our professional-grade products. This model is built on the foundation of the CD-5020A, a drive known for its durability and long-standing use in professional applications. The PD-505T enhances this design with innovations such as semi-floating mounting and a newly developed drive circuit, ensuring precise CD reading with high purity. Key Features: Enhanced CD Drive Design: The PD-505T’s CD drive builds on the TEAC CD-5020A, refined for optimal performance in this model. Semi-floating mounting minimizes vibration feedback, preserving audio quality by preventing interference from chassis vibrations. Advanced Circuit Design: A newly developed drive control circuit provides smoother motor operation, resulting in a more open, natural sound. BTL drive technology reduces switching noise, improving signal purity from the spindle motor to the pickup lens actuator. Independent toroidal core transformers power the CD drive, display, and audio circuits, each with discrete circuits for enhanced sound quality. Precision Clocking: An internal low-phase-noise crystal oscillator ensures accurate digital signal output. The PD-505T supports 10MHz external clock input, enabling further refinement of sound quality and synchronization in advanced digital systems. Robust Hardware Design: An all-metal enclosure shields against external electromagnetic noise while offering a stylish, compact footprint. The 8mm-thick aluminum side panels enhance structural integrity, ensuring stability and precision. The unit is equipped with our new Stressless Foot design, which features three loosely connected support points for more natural sound resonance. Semi-Floating Top Panel: The top panel is partially fixed, secured only by the side panels, contributing to a sound with a sense of openness.
