EXPOSURE ADDS NEW CD PLAYER TO MULTI AWARD-WINNING 3510 SERIES

Exposure adds new CD player to multi award-winning 3510 series...

To celebrate 50 years of creating ‘real hi-fi for real music lovers’, Exposure Electronics is proud to announce the new 3510 CD player, the final piece in the British brand’s much-lauded 3510 series of hi-fi components.

When CD was launched four decades ago, it was advertised with the slogan ‘perfect sound forever’. Of course in reality nothing is either perfect or forever, but despite various pronouncements of the death of the CD, the format lives on, taking its rightful place alongside vinyl, digital streaming services and tape in the modern music lover’s diverse collection. Still, the launch of a brand new CD player is a relatively rare event these days, so one to celebrate.

As always, the Exposure design is clearly informed by what customers actually want in practice, rather than by the latest trend. First, it has the flexibility of operating as a standalone CD player, while also being designed as a CD transport to connect with either the company’s 3510 or 5010 preamplifiers or the 3510 integrated amplifier, fitted with the optional DAC board. Second, learning from the success of Exposure’s compact XM CD player, the 3510 again sports the brand’s bespoke top-loading mechanism with sliding lid and magnetic clamp. Here, loading a CD feels almost as pleasing as cueing up a vinyl record.

Key features of the Exposure 3510 CD player include:

• Dual mono PCM1704 24-bit DAC, designed for very high resolution and separation.

• Highly optimised fully discrete audio output circuitry with multiple stages of supply regulation.

• Large toroidal power transformer with separate windings for CD transport mechanism and

audio stages.

• A high-stability crystal clock reference and dedicated power supply regulator for the transport and audio stages to ensure low jitter performance.

• High quality double-sided PCBs for optimum layout and screening.

• All-aluminium casework and extruded front panel to control unwanted resonance and electro-magnetic fields.

• Digital outputs allow use as a CD transport (as noted above).

• Convenient and high quality top-loading mechanism (as noted above).

• Full-function remote control.

• CD display can be turned off using the remote control for enhanced sound quality.
