Yamaha CDS1000 CD SACD Player
The CD format has been with us for about 25 years, and even as new media emerge, it retains its popularity. Nowadays, multi-disc players are common and CDs can also be played on DVD players, but nevertheless, audiophiles still want dedicated single-disc players that offer the highest possible quality. Yamaha answers this desire with the CD-S1000 - capable of playing CDs and Super Audio CDs, it is designed and built with extreme attention to every detail, for exceptionally accurate music reproduction, with nothing added or lost. The Yamaha CD-S1000 inherits the high sound quality design of the CD-S2000, but without balanced output circuitry. The basic design features that earned the CD-S2000 its high reputation, such as the use of differential DACs for high conversion precision with low noise, as well as Yamaha's proprietary Silent Loader and High Precision CD Drive, are the same in both models. What really sets the Yamaha CD-S1000 apart from its competitors, however, is that above and beyond the excellent electronic and mechanical performance, Yamaha designers have "tuned" the sound with a musician's sensibility. Unlike, for example, new format DVD players that are as close to being computers as they are to audio components, the CD-S1000 was built by people who thought of it as a musical instrument. The difference is apparent, especially when you pair it with the A-S1000 or other high-performance amplifier, which will give you the finest CD sound quality you've ever heard. The CD-S1000 uses high-grade differential D/A converters for the left and right channels, with their output assigned separately for plus and minus. Developed by drawing on Yamaha's long experience in digital technology, they ensure the highest conversion precision, as well as outstanding S/N ratio and dynamic range. All other components, including the analogue circuitry, were carefully selected based on extensive listening tests. Comprehensive sound tuning, encompassing even the mechanisms, means that you will enjoy incredibly dynamic and powerful CD reproduction. The mechanism that picks up the signal is actually analogue, even during the digital reproduction of a CD. So its degree of precision has a surprisingly large effect on the reproduction of the digital signals and the final sound. The CD-S1000 features Yamaha's unique Silent Loader, which uses Synchro Mesh rather than noise-producing gears, for totally silent tray movement as well as extremely high durability. The rest of the mechanism is also top quality, including a highly reliable brushless spindle motor and a die cast aluminium tray that is completely free of vibration. The thick steel and wood chassis is very heavy and stable, far superior to ordinary types made partly of plastic. The power supply has four sections-for the audio circuitry, the digital circuitry, the drive mechanism, and the display-which are physically separated from each other and from the transformer, minimising both mutual interference that degrades sound quality and the effect on earth electric potential. The power supply for the audio circuitry is a constant current type with an independent left-right structure; it ensures a stable supply of clean power and contributes to superior channel separation.
