Technics ST-C700DE-S - Silver - Tuner and Network Player

About the Technics ST-C700DE-S - Silver - Tuner and Network Player: A full-featured streamer and tuner with great attention to sound quality, the Technics ST-C700 has it all.

Architecture for digital noise isolation

Like the R1 series, the ST-C700 employs a jitter eliminator, a common-mode filter for the LAN input and a pulse transformer for the digital interface, improving sound purity by blocking the intrusion of external noise.

Virtual battery operation

Virtual battery operation reduces noise generated by the power supply circuit by using the circuit to generate reference potential for capacitor charging.

Optimally activated circuit system

The optimally activated circuit system disables unnecessary digital modules, such as those for display, network, USB and digital interfaces, to minimize the noise generated during playback.

Technics Music app for smartphones from the Technics ST-C700DE-S - Silver - Tuner and Network Player

With the Technics Music App, you can select a music source and playback devices and easily and conveniently create playlists on the screen of a tablet or smartphone. The Music App screen displays music stored on a connected DLNA-compatible server, content stored on the device running the app, and music files on connected USB memory devices, giving you integrated playback control. Used with the SE-R1 or SU-C700, the Technics Music app not only allows you to control volume and playback operations, but also lets you adjust bass, mids and treble.

High resolution re-mastering

Technics High Res Re-master converts an audio source to a high-resolution signal up to 192 kHz/32 bits, pushing the effects of digital noise outside the audible band and enabling a natural and expressive sound closer to the original music.

Oversampling digital filter with ultra-low distortion

The digital oversampling filter with Technics' original algorithm accurately removes the image to a level of -160 dB or lower by using a digital oversampling filter, reproducing sound rich in spatial expression.

High quality analog circuit Quality

The ST-C700 uses Technics' low-noise Digital Noise Isolation Architecture, a high-precision clock and a high-precision D/A converter (Burr-Brown PCM1795 (Texas Instruments)). The analog circuits use high-quality components for the purest sound possible.

Enjoy all your streamed music, as well as radio, in pure Technics quality with the ST-C700.
