Solid Deck Has the Goods for Superb CD Sound
Three elements give the C-755 an edge in audio refinement: first, a rigid 1.6 mm-thick full-flat chassis combines with a solid aluminum faceplate to virtually eliminate vibration. Second, a massive custom EI transformer and large audio-grade capacitors stabilize voltage, feeding your amp with a clean full-bandwidth signal. This improves soundstaging, headroom, and channel separation. Third, it has a high-quality DAC, precision clock, and VLSC™ filtering should you choose to output a pulse-noise-free analog signal to your power amp. Compact half-width dimensions, meanwhile, give freedom to position this stylish player anywhere, without it dominating your interior design. Paired with a matching R-N855 Network Stereo Receiver or refreshing an existing stereo setup, the C-755 will delight with seriously great sound.
Solid Aluminum Front Panel
Like the R-N855 Stereo Receiver it’s designed to match, the C-755 has a thick and solid aluminum front panel in smoky silver or black finish. As well as looking great, the material serves a practical purpose, working together with the rigid chassis to prevent vibration.
Compact Design Fits Anywhere
This handsome player is roughly half the width of a full-sized CD deck, allowing you to place it on a bookshelf or desktop (perhaps augmenting your current computer audio system as a high-quality yet affordable CD transport).
Massive Transformer and Capacitors for Stability
The C-755 uses a massive custom-built EI transformer and audio-quality capacitors to ensure clean and stable voltage to drive the signal. This maintains wide bandwidth and fast dynamics for lively sound.
Full-Flat Anti-Vibration Chassis
Build quality starts from the ground up with a highly rigid, 1.6 mm-thick, fully flat chassis that provides excellent protection against mechanical vibrations that can negatively impact on audio clarity.
High-Precision Clocking Mechanism
The C-755 features precise clocking mechanism that controls the timing of all digital signal processes. The player uses a state-of-the-art crystal oscillator that achieves a frequency deviation of just ±10 ppm—much lower than with a conventional oscillator.
VLSC™ Reduces Noise and Reveals Detail
Pulse noise arises when converting digital signals to analog. The C-755 CD player features VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry), a unique technology that analyzes input and output signal information and erases noise to clarify details otherwise hidden in a subtle veil of high-frequency distortion.
Quality AKM 192 kHz/24-bit DAC
If you own an integrated power amp, the C-755 can feed it a clean, noise-free analog signal courtesy of a 192 kHz/24-bit DAC from AKM. The device has a low noise floor, excellent bandwidth performance, and quality output filter to preserve the full frequency spectrum while reducing noise.
Swift and Silent Front-loading Disc Mechanism
The smooth front-loading disc tray makes it easy to load up a disc and start listening. Unlike some systems with awkward industrial designs, you’re less likely to scratch the disc when loading up music, while the sturdy mechanism itself enhances playback stability. Naturally, the C-755 plays regular audio CDs as well as copied or MP3-encoded discs you’ve made yourself.
Remote Interactive (RI) Remote Controller
If your current system features Remote Interactive inputs and outputs, you can control both components using either remote. Limited functions include power off and power on, and playback controls. The supplied remote gives you the option to shuffle songs, repeat tracks, randomize playback, or arrange playback order for up to 25 songs on an album.
| By focussing solely on the things that make music sound so good that it will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, and cutting extra cost and clutter, we aim to deliver the best-sounding system at this price you\'ll ever hear. We believe, for instance, that multi-channel surround sound codecs and Blu-ray laser capabilities in a hi-fi disc player at this price adds complexity, introduces noise and reduces the budget for key components. That\'s why the CD10 is a pure stereo CD player. And that means better sounding music. After all, your music is our passion.
Our designers chose a solidly built, all-metal case, carefully damped to minimise vibration and maximise music purity. That\'s rare at this budget.
As well as audio CDs, you can play home-recorded CD-R, CD-RW and CD-ROM discs packed with digital music in MP3, MP3 Pro and WMA formats.

Key to the audiophile performance offered by the CXC CD transport is our S3 servo solution. The vast majority of optical drives in use today are designed with computers in mind. While they can read all manner of disc media, they lack the precision and finesse of a dedicated audio drive. To address this, we have written our own software to precisely control the driveʼs laser and motor assembly.
SIMPLIFYING THE SIGNAL PATH
The CXC is simplicity itself to setup and use, because we handle digital to analogue conversion in our amplifiers. Thereʼs a good reason behind this philosophy. Maintaining the audio signal in the digital domain for as long as possible minimises potential analogue signal degradation. Our CXC transport has one job to do and it does it very well indeed.
Our proprietary Cambridge S3 servo solution effectively turns a universal disc drive into a dedicated CD spinner; it can calibrate and monitor the speed of the disc, holding it steady and constant. By managing where the laser head is and what itʼs reading, as well as maximising error correction, we can get the maximum amount of clean data off the disc as possible, with the minimum jitter.
BUILT TO LAST
The CXC utilises a low-resonance acoustically damped metal chassis, with an ultra-clean low noise power supply. Beneath the hood, our PCB design employs double-sided surface mount technology, which eliminates wire links and ensures an ultra short signal path, thereby reducing signal deterioration.
C-BUS POWER SYNCING
Cambridge C-BUS connection means that one remote can be used to power on and off both CXC and CXA in sync.
