“To sum up, the SC-CX700 is a top performer that may set a benchmark for others to follow in the active speaker system category.” comments Bill Voss, Technics Business Development Manager, US
Instant setup, immediate enjoyment
A truly flexible ‘plug and play’ system, the SC-CX700 can be used as a standalone Wi-Fi streaming speaker, as a compact, yet grown-up Hi-Fi system —thanks to the integration of an amplifier and speaker in one box, known as an ‘active’ speaker— or it can be used in place of a soundbar on your TV with seamless integration to TVs with HDMI ARC input.
This active wireless speaker system can also be placed anywhere in a room and still achieve incredible sound quality.
Gone are the days of needed to re-arrange your space to get the best from your audio system. Thanks to Space TuneTM, which optimizes audio performance and spatial acoustics no matter where the speakers are placed in the home, users can have the best of both worlds — keeping their homes’ aesthetics without sacrificing audio quality.
So, whether you are in a smaller apartment with lots of soft furnishings or a large echoing space, the SC-CX700 adjusts to suit you not the other way around, making it the perfect choice for music enthusiasts who want unparalleled audio quality, without the usual fuss.
The SC-CX700 is also as simple to use as it is to set up thanks to the newly designed, hand-held Infrared remote control and the new Technics Audio Center app (TAC). Available on both Android and iOS devices, TAC gives access to the full variety of system settings for personalized sound and comes with a new, simplified setup configuration.
And with built-in integration with the Google Chromecast platform, users can get access to a wide range of streaming services including Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz, Deezer, Amazon Music HD, as well as internet radio with ease.
Sleek design, superior sound
The perfect combination of style and function, the SC-CX700 was designed without compromise. It houses all of Technics’ legendary engineering and audio technology while maintaining a sleek design, making it the ultimate purchase for any style conscious music enthusiast.
Technics’ proprietary, full-digital JENO amplifier technology with the coaxial driver, including a Smooth Flow Diaphragm, delivers stunning, dynamic sound to fill any room.
Meanwhile, the new Model-based Distortion Cancelling (MBDC) technology allows unparalleled motion control of the driver for ultimate sonic purity – even at very high sound pressure levels.
In fact, all moving parts of the SC-CX700 have been optimized to create the clearest, most realistic sound possible. The Balanced Driver Mounting Architecture (BDMA) and the sophisticated, separate enclosure structure for the driver chamber and the amplifier housing keeps the whole speaker enclosure silent and free of vibration for a purer sound.
A Smooth-Flow bass port also elegantly integrates with the overall design for tight, powerful bass that any dance music fans will love.
And for those who appreciate a more retro approach to their musical experience, a built-in Phono Equalizer allows for easy hook-up with a Technics turntable for low-noise, high-quality audiophile vinyl playback.
“The SC-CX700 is so thoughtfully designed, with app driven simplicity of operation at your fingertips, it might be the last Hi-Fi system one will ever need! It truly is a conquest of premium sound, stylish design and A/V connectivity” comments Bill Voss, Technics Business Development Manager, US
