Stunning Fidelity from a Stylish and Affordable CD Player

For music lovers who enjoy the tangible experience of playing a physical format, the CD retains its enduring

appeal. The pleasure comes not just from browsing a collection of discs and reading the liner notes. It also comes

from enjoying your music in superior fidelity. By combining high-quality components and decades of Onkyo audio

know-how, the C-7030 CD player delivers a superb playback experience. The key lies in keeping the audio signal

clean and free from interference, all the way to the output stage. To achieve this, we employ a new high-precision

clock to dramatically reduce timing errors, along with our original VLSC™ to reduce pulse noise. Driving the

system is a massive, custom-built transformer that provides a clean and stable power supply. Given how affordable

the C-7030 is, build quality is exceptional. A 1.6 mm-thick flat chassis base helps reduce unwanted vibrations,

while the sleek aluminum front panel provides an elegant finish.

C-7030 COMPACT DISC PLAYER

VLSC™ (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry)

In conventional digital-to-analog conversion methods, it’s

impossible to completely remove noise. This noise taints the

analog signal and ultimately degrades the sound emitted

from your speakers. With Onkyo’s VLSC, though, data is

continuously sampled between two discrete points—via a

signal comparison generator—and the difference is joined

with analog vectors in real time to produce a smooth

output waveform. The VLSC digital-to-analog conversion

method results in an accurate, virtually pulse noise-free

audio signal that faithfully reproduces the acoustic detail

and subtle nuances of all your audio sources, and breathes

life into digital media.

Precision Clock

The C-7030 boasts a precise clocking mechanism that

controls and coordinates the timing of all digital signal

processes—rather like how a conductor directs and

coordinates the individual instruments of an orchestra. The

C-7030 uses a state-of-the-art crystal oscillator that

achieves a frequency deviation of ±10 ppm—much lower

than with a conventional oscillator.

Wolfson® 192 kHz/24-Bit DAC

A high-quality Wolfson digital-to-analog converter works to

optimize audio performance on the C-7030. This DAC

performs advanced 24-bit signal processing and supports

sampling rates of up to 192 kHz, while displaying high

resistance to clock jitter. With this DAC on board, the

C-7030 delivers a pristine conversion of digital signals into

analog audio output.

Fully Flat Anti-Vibration Chassis

When it comes to parts and construction, it’s not in

Onkyo’s DNA to cut any corners. The C-7030 is no

exception. Build quality starts from the ground up with a

highly rigid, 1.6 mm-thick, fully flat chassis that provides

excellent protection against shelf-borne vibrations.
