WITH INTEGRATED ANALOGUE-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER

Both Microsoft® Windows® and Apple® Mac OS® come with very simple audio recording software pre-installed. However, to take full advantage of the high-resolution recording facilities offered by the MM 008 ADC, we recommend recording software that can record at 24 bits/96 kHz and save lossless high-resolution audio files such as FLAC or Apple® Lossless.

ADC SOFTWARE

Thorens turntables can be considered state-of-the-art in hi-fi technology as they would extract even the most minute details from your precious vinyl records. The signals generated by the pickup cartridges are however very small and therefore must be amplified to a much higher level. Regrettably, most of today’s amplifiers are no longer equipped with a dedicated phono stage. This unfortunate situation was a good reason for Thorens to develop the TEP 302, a complete phono preamplifier including RIAA equalization, which was to complement the outstanding playback performance of our turntables.

The TEP 302 is a pure-bred Class-A amplifier which employs selected, very special low-noise operational amplifiers throughout. The circuitry has been optimized “by ear” after several extended listening sessions. Of course, the TEP 302 also features a 15-Hz subsonic filter in order to protect the woofers from dangerous excursions when a warped record is played. More details, more dynamics.

User's manual  
  • Ultra compact phono preamplifier and equalizer
  • Proper RIAA equalization
  • RCA inputs and outputs
  • 6.3 mm stereo headphone output connector
  • Sturdy metal housing
  • 12 V AC/DC adapter included
The LD Systems PPA 2 is a very compact analogue phono preamplifier, which equalises the extremely low output signal of conventional turntables to RIAA standards. It allows you to connect to devices without any phono input, such as mixers, PA power amplifiers or sound cards. The phono inputs are designed as RCA jacks, just like the line outputs; the PPA 2 also has a screw terminal for the ground conductor of the turntable and a 6.3 mm stereo jack for connecting a headset. The THD factor of the preamplifier is below 0.05% and the channel separation is -75 dB. The LD Systems PPA 2 uses a 12 V AC adapter; a bright LED indicates the power supply on the top of the sturdy metal chassis. Product type Other Studio and Recording Equipment

Note: Access to certain Internet-based content may require a subscription to a service.

Surround:AIThis AI technology built into the DSP analyzes the scene of your content and creates a surround effect to help reproduce it with augmented realism. In real time, this AI analyzes scenes by focusing on distinct sound elements, such as dialogue, background music, ambient sounds, and sound effects, and automatically enhances the surround effect to help provide greater realism.Dolby Atmos & DTS:XThese object-based sound technologies are designed to create realistic surround sound, positioning and moving individual sounds to nearly any virtual point in your room, including overhead.CINEMA DSP HD3In addition to Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and conventional channel-based audio, a 3D space can be simulated in which separate acoustic elements can move freely, providing a sensation of the motion of sound effects above your head. CINEMA DSP HD3 uses signal processing algorithms to help heighten this sense of realism.YPAO-RSC (Reflected Sound Control)YPAO-RSC analyzes the room acoustics with the included microphone to tune your system for optimal sound in your room. It uses RSC to correct early reflections for enhanced sound. YPAO 3D is designed to provide automatic sound parameter optimization that maximizes the 3D sound field of CINEMA DSP HD3 as well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, and with 64-bit EQ calculations, this technology helps produce natural room acoustics.Dual ESS SABRE PRO Premier (ES9026 PRO) DACsIncorporating two ESS SABRE PRO Premier (ES9026 PRO) DACs helps further enhance the signal-to-noise ratio and achieve up to 32-bit performance.Large Power Transformer with Vibration Dampening PlateThe CX-A5200 features a large power transformer to help maximize performance and precision. Deep, powerful sound is achieved with enhanced regulation of power, while a thick brass plate helps dampen unwanted vibrations.Thick Bottom PlateStabilizing the chassis is the key to enhanced performance and sound. The CX-A5200 achieves this by employing a thick bottom plate, which acts to steady and immobilize the entire structure and achieve optimal sound.Balanced Connections and XLR TerminalsElectrical noise is an inherent issue with cabling due to connection with other A/V components, the connections between them, and from other sources of external noise. To ensure that the CX-A5200 is not affected by such distortion, it uses balanced, noise-resistant terminals. Even the RCA unbalanced connections use a ground-sensing transmission method that achieves simple balanced transmission. Further, the XLR terminals allow for the use of long cables. The CX-A5200 also allows a balanced audio input connection from audiophile-grade source components such as CD players.Built-In Streaming ServicesWith built-in music streaming services and connectivity options, you can enjoy all your content, including Internet radio stations and music from your compatible smart devices with the CX-A5200.Voice Control with Amazon Alexa and MusicCastWith Alexa voice control integration, all you have to do is ask. Use any Alexa-enabled device to control either the amplifier by itself or multiple MusicCast devices throughout your home.Bluetooth and AirPlay CompatibilityThe CX-A5200 features Bluetooth connectivity for simple, convenient wireless msuic streaming from your compatible smart devices, including smartphones, tablets, and laptops. iTunes and iOS users can use AirPlay to wirelessly stream audio seamlessly from compatible devices.MusicCast for Whole-Home MusicMusicCast makes it easy to share audio throughout the home using your Wi-Fi network. The CX-A5200 is designed to work seamlessly with other MusicCast products, including multi-room streaming amplifiers, soundbars, wireless speakers, and hi-fi gear, and they\'re all controllable from the MusicCast app or from a third-party control system such as Control4, RTI, or ELAN.Additional Features
