The Audiolab 7000CDT is a dedicated CD transport, not a CD player, designed to feed an external DAC with low-jitter digital output. It uses a high-precision optical system, read-ahead digital buffer, and crystal-controlled master clock to improve disc reading stability and reduce errors, while also supporting playback from USB storage devices.
