Integrated from the top, the CD, blocked by a pallet press, can then be left in the open air, or covered by a hood, which obviously limits dust as well as reinforcing the silence of rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Limited to 44.1 kHz in 16 bits, i.e. the sampling rate of a CD, this transport cannot read SACDs, but it gives the signal reliability to the 40th of a femtosecond thanks to its high-precision clock. To connect it to the DAC, coaxial (BNC adaptable) and AES\/EBU digital inputs are available, while the Totaldac live-power ultra-low-noise power supply is added as standard, upgradeable with other, even more powerful, from the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This new high-performance Breton player can be tried out directly by contacting the manufacturer on its website, and is priced at 7 500 \u20ac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1788\" height=\"894\" src=\"https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/d1-CD_rear_1500.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/d1-CD_rear_1500.jpg 1788w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/d1-CD_rear_1500-1280x640.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/d1-CD_rear_1500-980x490.jpg 980w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/d1-CD_rear_1500-480x240.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1788px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>15\/04\/2025<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vincent Brient may be headquartered a few kilometers from Mont-Saint-Michel, but he is clearly not a tourist, given the number of projects and changes Totaldac undergoes every year&nbsp;!
