Onkyo DX-C390

The Onkyo DX-C390 is a 6-disc carousel changing CD player offered by Onkyo. It uses a high-precision, multi-bit D/A converter and 128 x oversampling for great sound quality as well as Onkyo's exclusive VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) for a smoother sounding audio signal. It uses a "Direct Digital Path", which is a heavily shielded, high-quality cable to protect the digital audio signal from surround circuit noise. It has 6-disc capability with 40 track programming, and has the ability to change 5 of the discs while a 6th is playing for no music interuptions. The Onkyo DX-C390 has an optical and coaxial digital audio output, comes in a black finish and is shipped with a remote control.
