The Yamaha CD-S303RK is the proven CD-S303 – electronically and sonically identical, but with removable 19-inch rack ears for clean mounting in a rack or studio furniture. Pure Direct, a high-quality 192 kHz/24-bit converter and front-panel USB playback make it an uncomplicated, sonically strong specialist for silver discs.
Besides audio CDs and CD-R/RW, it also plays MP3, WMA, AAC, WAV and FLAC via the USB port on the front. The Pure Direct circuit shuts down the display and digital output, keeping interference away from the analogue signal.
Straight talk
In terms of features and sound, the CD-S303RK is identical to the CD-S303 – the only difference is the included rack ears. If you don't need a 19-inch mount, the standard CD-S303 is the cheaper option. If you want to bolt gear cleanly into a rack, this is the right choice. There's no headphone output – the CD-S303RK is designed purely as a source.
