The CD400SE and the DR400SE models have a chassis of massif aluminium sides that ensure perfect mechanical inertia. In addition, the original shape has been studied to absorb better all vibrations. The top loading drive specifically developed for the 400 line consists of mechanical elements in steel and aluminium treated against vibrations, decoupled from the device’s frame by four metal spacers. This greatly enhances the accuracy of the laser and the error correction circuits. This construction greatly improves the musical timbres and treble reproduction.

- Specific ATOLL mechanics with top loading.
- Low-consumption OLED display.
- CD text display.
- 2xPCM1794 converters (one per channel).
- Symmetrical stages with discrete components without feedback.

CONNECTIVITY
Inputs
2 Digital inputs (1 optical & 1 coaxial).
1 USB-B input.
Outputs
2 Stereo XLR outputs.
1 Stereo line output.
2 Digital outputs (1 optical & 1 coaxial).
Consult the standard for wiring XLR connectors.
The digital signals are perfectly shielded and follow an optimized path to fight against the effects of jitter. In the CD400SE, using two independent converters, one per channel, avoids crosstalk and significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio and the dynamic.

“TOP LOADING ATOLL” mechanical is used for the CD400SE and the DR400SE.
• Anti-vibration system.
• Solid aluminum sidewalls.
• CD text.
The remote control is supplied as standard on each model and allows remote control of all ATOLL products (Integrated, preamps, Tuner, DAC).
In addition, it has all the essential functions, including programming, shuffle, repeat, etc.
“No wonder the success was at the rendezvous with audiophile music lovers, especially since the prices remained very reasonable for the listening pleasure offered. (…) The mechanics, power supplies, and internal circuits are also high-class. Particular care has been taken (…) to ensure playback in conditions undisturbed by external and internal vibrations and against the risk of pollution through power supplies or ground lines from digital to analogue”.
Stéréo Prestige & Image magazine, no. 62, 2011.
The CD400SE model is available in black or natural aluminium versions:
DR400SE
The DR400SE is the pure Drive version of the CD400SE incorporating innovative technical solutions:
