The TEAC VRDS-T1 CD transport must be connected to a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to operate at full capacity. Originally released alongside the TEAC D-T1, it can also be paired with any DAC equipped with a coaxial or optical input.

The TEAC VRDS-T1 uses the KSS-240A optical pickup, a proven and reliable component also found in many other devices. Moreover, this part is still in production and can be sourced easily.

Well-built and well-finished, the TEAC VRDS-T1 is an ideal choice for audiophiles who already own a high-quality DAC and are looking for a CD transport that is simple to use on a daily basis.
