Product Information
The Network CD Receiver SA-C600 brings you a wealth of music content with a single device—everything from records, CDs, and radio to music streaming and more besides—with a luxurious audio environment courtesy of Technics’ superior sound engineering.
Full Digital Amp, JENO Engine (Jitter Elimination and Noise-shaping Optimization)
The SA-C600 uses a fully digital amplifier incorporating Technics’ renowned digital audio technology. Its digital transmission system processes signal fully digitally in all stages from input to output. Compared to analog transmission, this system is less susceptible to signal degradation caused by external noise, ensuring more precise signal transmission. Accurate signal processing not only delivers high-resolution digital audio but also maintains the soft texture inherent in analog recordings.
Twin Power Supply Circuit System
The design of the power supply is extremely critical in audio systems containing CD players, amplifiers, digital circuits, and other such components. To eliminate any adverse effects on the amplifier, the SA-C600 is equipped with a dedicated power supply for the amplifier circuits that is independent of all other circuits, supplying power to the two independent transformers. The wiring connections between the two dedicated transformers and the amplifier circuits are also optimized for noise reduction.
Clean Powered Clock Generator
The power supply for the clock circuit of the JENO Engine utilizes the same noise suppression circuit employed in Technics’ flagship turntable model, the SL-1000R, in order to improve noise reduction. It achieves superb sound image localization and transparent spatial expression.
Built-in Phono Equalizer Compatible with MM Cartridge
The built-in phono equalizer supports MM cartridges. The phono equalizer uses a dedicated power supply and is equipped with a power supply circuit that is different from the control circuit for improved noise reduction. The equalizer circuit also features a shielded construction to shut out the effects of external noise and allows for signal amplification without any loss of fidelity.
Space Tune™
The SA-C600 is equipped with a Space Tune function that enables the adjustment of sound to suit the environment and location of the unit so that anyone can enjoy superb music reproduction. By using the Technics Audio Centre app for tablets and smartphones or by selecting one of the four presets on the main unit—Free, Wall, Corner, and Shelf—the user can achieve the most suitable sound reproduction for their specific acoustic environment.
The L/R Custom feature allows users to enter separate settings for each individual speaker, adjusting for installation under different conditions and bringing out the best sound quality in any environment.
Supports a Wide Range of Music Content
- Compatible with a variety of music sources: The SA-C600 supports a variety of music sources including CD, radio, phono input, optical digital input (including TVs), coaxial digital input, USB input, and more.
- Enjoy high-quality sound wirelessly: The SA-C600 can play back high-resolution music wirelessly. It supports not only Bluetooth® and AirPlay 2, but also Spotify Connect®, TIDAL, Amazon Music, and more, and comes with Chromecast built-in™.
- Compatible with MQA®: The SA-C600 supports MQA and can playback MQA-CD and MQA files downloaded from music streaming services with outstanding sound quality.
Designed for Sophisticated Music Listening Experience
To ensure consistency of appearance, the design of the SA-C600 incorporates elements from Technics turntables such as color, texture, and dimensions, improving the aesthetics of the system. The aluminum top panel sports a built-in CD player with a manually operated lid for ease of use and functional beauty.
