CD400 Evolution

The CD400 EVO player is equipped with the latest Top Loading mechanics developed by ATOLL. It has perfectly matched
high-performance power supplies and audio stages, offering an immersive stereo image and striking sound realism.
Thanks to its digital inputs using the internal conversion stages, this player is also a high-end converter.

  • 10 mm brushed, micro-blasted and anodized aluminium front panel, high-precision engraving.
  • 2 mm steel chassis.
  • Solid aluminium sides.
  • New top-loading mechanics developed by ATOLL, suspension mounting, solid aluminum platter.
  • Two 10 VA toroidal transformers each for the audio stages.
  • 30 VA linear transformer (general power supply).
  • 1.6 VA linear transformer (control logic).
  • Ten regulated and independent power supplies.
  • High-quality MKP link capacitors.
  • Anti-vibration system.
  • Complete dual mono structure:
            – Two independent symmetrical stages for each channel.
            – One PCM1792A converter per channel.
  • Bipolar transistor audio stages have a perfectly symmetrical structure, are polarized in class A, and are without feedback.
  • Transistor and LED current sources ensure perfect stability and drastic rejection of distortions.
  • Converter inputs: coaxial, optical and USB.
  • High-contrast OLED display (on or off mode after 5 seconds of inactivity).
  • CD text display.
  • ATOLL global remote control supplied as standard.

Pressure plate
Specific “TOP LOADING ATOLL” mechanism for the CD400 EVO and the DR400 EVO.

The remote control comes standard with every CD player.
It also lets you control ATOLL products: Integrated amplifiers, Preamps, Tuners, and DACs.
This remote control has all the advanced functions, including programming, shuffle, repeat,
and more.

“This meticulously crafted machine is not only musical but also very comprehensive thanks to its three-input DAC. With this new electronics, primarily focused on CD playback and also available as a pure transport, it goes without saying that the company is implicitly responding to a large number of requests, a shining example of the importance of always listening to the messages of its most loyal customers!
