 Overview

The PD-301 is a compact CD player that incorporates a tuner that supports FM frequencies and a
USB port that enables playback from USB flash drives.

A slot-in drive mechanism, which has a record of use in professional equipment, is used for the
crucial CD player drive. Not only can you use this unit as a simple high-quality CD player, you can
also use it as a CD transport in combination with a separate D/A converter connected to its coaxial
or optical digital output. In addition, WAV, AAC, MP3 and WMA files can be played back from U SB
flash drives connected to the USB port on the front of the unit. Moreover, the built-in FM tuner
supports RDS.

Furthermore, used in combination with an AI-301DA pre-main amplifier
from the 301 Reference Series, you can create a compact desktop audio
system that allows you to play high-resolution audio from a computer,
listen to FM programming, and even enjoy wireless playback of
high-quality audio from a smartphone or tablet with Bluetooth® that
supports aptX®.

 Combine with an AI-301DA and LS-301 speakers to create a compact Hi-Res system

The PD-301 can be combined with an AI-301DA pre-main amplifier (also from the 301 Reference
Series) that has a USB DAC and allows aptX® Bluetooth input. Together they form a compact
high-resolution system that allows USB audio input from a computer and wireless playback from
smartphones and tablets while also supporting CDs and USB flash drives as well as a wide range
of FM frequencies.

■Combine with a UD-301 for a high-precision CD player system

By connecting this model digitally to a UD-301, which is a USB DAC with a dual m ono structure
in the same 301 Reference Series, you can upconv ert the PCM 44.1kHz/16-bit digital data of
your CDs to 192 kHz. By conducting D/A processing after converting to a higher -precision digital
signal, a smoother analog signal can be output.
Furthermore, in addition to RCA unbalanced outputs, the UD-301 has XLR balanced outputs, so
it is possible to incorporate it into a more advanced system with a hi-fi amplifier that has
balanced inputs.
