A CD player should be more than the sum of the
individual high-quality components. However, the
quality of the individual parts is a precondition for
successful design of the equipment. With a Vincent
CD player the unit's housing, drive, electronics and
amplifier circuitry must work together perfectly.
Many amplifiers, preamplifiers and main amplifiers
containing transistors are designed with "Class A"
circuitry. In this case a transistor is operated within a
certain range of its characteristic curve in which, alt-
hough the quiescent current and hence the power
consumption are higher than in Class AB operation,
audible non-linear distortion of the output signal is
lower. The sound characteristics of amplifier compo-
nents built in this way have many fans.

DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

There are also amplifier circuits in every audio sour-
ce device and here too, more expenditure on circuit
technology can greatly improve the sound.
Although the CD-S2 is the entry-level model among
Vincent's CD players, it is still superior to most CD
players in its price band. It has been equipped with
a "Class A" output stage with bipolar and FET tran-
sistors and provides a coaxial digital audio output
and an adjustable headphone output. The appea-
rance of this device matches the other audio compo-
nents from Vincent's solidLine.
Together with the tuner, the amplifier components of
this design line and Vincent loudspeakers, a harmo-
nious system can be created whose performance
will surprise you.
