TEAC VRDS-10 (1992)

 

The TEAC VRDS-10 CD player features the acclaimed Vibration-free Rigid Disc-clamping System (V.R.D.S.), first introduced in the legendary P-2s. Its precision aluminum turntable supports the entire disc to eliminate vibration, warping, and tracking errors. The laser pickup adjusts perfectly to the disc’s angle, ensuring accurate, distortion-free data reading. Built on a rigid BMC (Bulk Molding Compound) base with a high-torque brushless motor and helicoid clamp, the VRDS-10 delivers stable disc rotation, minimal resonance, and exceptional clarity. For superior audio, the VRDS-10 uses Bitstream D/A Conversion, converting 16-bit samples into a 1-bit stream for cleaner, more linear sound. A 20-bit, 8× oversampling digital filter and double-differential DACs further reduce interference and noise, offering outstanding detail and transparency. The chassis is engineered for maximum rigidity and vibration control, featuring a dual top plate, reinforced multi-section structure, and balanced internal layout that isolates digital and analog circuits. Externally, a solid 5 mm aluminum front panel with minimal controls maintains acoustic purity. The result is a high-end CD player designed for precision tracking, ultra-clean digital conversion, and remarkably stable, natural sound.
