Cambridge Audio are renowned for their budget hi-fi expertise and spend longer than most in developing their products. The Azur 350c CD player is a good example of this.
Whilst an off-the-shelf CD/DVD-ROM drive might be fine for your laptop or ordinary CD player, Cambridge Audio have gone the extra mile and used a dedicated audio-only CD transport. This is then coupled to Cambridge Audio's third generation proprietary S3 servo solution which dynamically adjusts the focussing, tracking and output level of the laser in real time. This in turn enables maximum retrieval of disc data, guarantees extremely low jitter and delivers amazingly dynamic sound.
The new 350C offers a raft of upgrades over its award-winning predecessor. The most important is its implementation of a Wolfson WM8728 DAC coupled to a 2-pole Sallen-Key Butterworth filter. This complex sounding component is key to the 350C's warm, fluid performance and its measurable purity and detail. Furthermore, a highly accurate master clock oscillator and impedance-matched clock buffering schemes further contribute to the amount of data it is possible to extract from a CD. And like its 350A amplifier partner, the 350C also benefits from a superior toroidal transformer which offers much lower noise and waveform distortion than lower cost laminate transformers which are more commonplace amongst the competition.
Finished to Cambridge Audio's usual high standards and including the Azur, vibration resistant casing, the Cambridge Audio 350c dominates its class.
