A toP-AR T-Series compact disc player with I-PDM DAC and intelligent digital servo.

The D/A converter uses Yamaha's original DSP I-PDM DAC.
This DAC was developed by fusing Yamaha's 20-bit recording data and LSI technology. It uses a DSP method to reconstruct a 20-bit precision digital signal from a 16-bit format signal. The signal read from the disk is corrected to 20-bit 8-fs data compared with the 20-bit recording data, so that a waveform very close to the original signal can be obtained. This improves reproducibility at the minute level.
In addition, by combining the original I-PDM DAC, in which the output pulses are independent and the generation of distortion is eliminated in principle, higher fidelity reproduction is realized.

A Class A current buffer amplifier is installed in the final stage of the analog circuit to reduce the impedance of the output.
In addition, the use of a gold-plated output terminal and allowance in the power supply circuit have eliminated the cause of sound quality degradation.

The servo circuit is equipped with an intelligent digital servo.
This circuit constantly monitors the disk read signal so that errors can be corrected as soon as they occur. In addition, the computer controls the tracking focus of the pickup and the rotation speed of the spindle motor according to the error condition so that precise corrections can be made to maintain stable playback.

It is equipped with play functions such as 25 songs program play.

Equipped with synchronized REC function with cassette deck KX-10.

Equipped with a dimmer control function, the brightness of the display can be adjusted to 3 levels depending on the brightness of the room or preference.

Equipped with an optical digital output terminal.

Wireless remote control is included.
It is also compatible with Yamaha's original RS remote control.
