 Onkyo®, an innovative premium audio solution provider, is pleased to announce a welcome addition to its all-new Icon Series lineup: The C-30 High-Performance CD Player, designed for music lovers seeking a premium, solid playback solution for their CD collections.

The C-30 Hi-Fi Grade CD Player delivers outstanding performance and value in a refined, audiophile-grade design, retailing at just $349. Engineered for discerning listeners, it features Onkyo’s exclusive VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuit)—a proprietary technology that removes pulse noise from the signal path using advanced algorithms. The result is a clean, distortion-free analog output from its premium 24-bit/192kHz DAC, revealing every nuance of your music with breathtaking clarity.

With an impressive 107 dB signal-to-noise ratio, the C-30 offers exceptionally quiet backgrounds and richly detailed audio. A high-precision ±10PPM clock ensures remarkable timing accuracy and a focused, stable stereo image, elevating your listening experience to true high-fidelity standards.

Engineered for exceptional sonic purity, the C-30 boasts a vibration-resistant, blast-finished aluminum front panel designed to reduce resonance and deliver cleaner playback. On the rear panel, Hi-Fi-grade RCA, optical, and digital coaxial outputs ensure effortless integration with a variety of premium audio systems.

Compatible with standard CDs, CD-Rs, and CD-RWs, the C-30 also supports MP3 and WMA file playback, giving you versatile access to your entire music collection—always with uncompromising sound quality.
