Key Features
The Technics SL-G700E-K Network/Super Audio CD Player Silver is a multi-digital player that is capable of playing a large variety of the digital media formats available today from traditional CD/SACD to the latest high-res formats. Pushing the boundaries of a generic CD player, the SL-G700 can support Bluetooth, WiFi and Airplay 2 as well as being compatible with all your favourite streaming services including Spotify and TIDAL.
Premium components and meticulous design have gone into the SL-G700 that features a triple chassis CD drive that sits at the heart of the unit, ensuring accurate reading and negating external vibration. Top of the line D/A converters and amp modules gift you high-res audio whilst the unique four-section configuration of the circuitry eliminates any interference between circuit blocks, so you get crystal clear audio no matter the source. The SL-G700 is the perfect companion for music lovers, audiophiles and those wanting versatile source options for the best listening experience possible.

For analogue audio output, the filter circuit located after the D/A conversion determines the quality of sound. The SL-G700’s filter circuit incorporates not an Opamp IC but an amp module of original discrete construction. The use of low-noise transistors and thin-film resistors suppresses the noise generated inside the circuits. Detailed fine tuning, such as the increase of operating current, has improved the response, S/N ratio and distortion rate. As result, the SL-G700 provides highly linear and faithful sound reproduction without omitting even the smallest nuances recorded in the source.
The quality of power supply is extremely important for high-fidelity sound reproduction. Power supply noise and supply stability directly affect the quality of sound reproduced from audio signals, particularly for analogue audio output. The SL-G700 is equipped with a dedicated power supply unit for analogue audio output. Its non-feedback switching power supply suppresses switching frequency fluctuation. Combined with the original stabilised power supply circuit, this dedicated power supply unit provides stable power with low noise. The discrete circuit structure does not use any general-purpose ICs, and meticulous tuning provides power optimised for analogue circuits, thus realising a high S/N ratio and superb reproduction, the hallmark of Technics sound.
For analogue audio output, the D/A circuit is one of the most important circuit blocks since it recreates the original analogue waveform from a digital source, such as a CD. For the D/A converters, Asahi Kasei Micro devices’ top-of-the-line DAC AK4497, with their high S/N ratio and low distortion, are isolated for the left and right channels. The power supply for the D/A converters is separated into five sections according to the application, and supplied individually. The power supply for the clock employs an original Battery Driven Circuit System to achieve high-accuracy D/A conversion. The Dual Mono Construction and asymmetrical layout eliminate mutual interference between left and right channels, taking the reproduction of sound imaging and sound space recorded in the source to a higher dimension.
