The mids and highs are bright, crisp, and clear.
AMAZON ONKYO CD PLAYER FULL
The bass is full and solid, yet without muddling the midrange and treble. It reproduces lows, mids, and highs very accurately. However, Onkyo C-7030 is truly well-built. Many users say that Onkyo C-7030 does not last over the warranty period.
At least, it is reliable for a few years. Seeing these parts, we can expect that Onkyo C-7030 will not last very long. Nevertheless, the caps are not likely to go bad before the mechanical parts of the CD player. Depending on whom you ask, the caps can be considered good or bad. There are some through-hole components, too, mostly capacitors and power-handling components. Well, Onkyo C-7030 comes with surface-mount devices. PriceĬonsidering the budget nature, we certainly don’t expect Onkyo C-7030 to come with components of the highest quality. There is no USB port, so Onkyo C-7030 is solely for playing CDs. On the rear panel, you can find the complete connection ports: L/R analog, optical digital, and coaxial digital outputs.
There is a headphone jack with a dedicated volume control on the front panel. The appearance is rather simple, featuring the disc tray on top of the display screen. Onkyo C-7030 is also rather slow, as it can take about ten seconds to load a CD. The changer mechanism in a multi-disc player is notorious for breaking, so getting rid of the part means that the disc player can have one less problem to worry about. However, a single-disc player like Onkyo C-7030 actually has an advantage that it does not have any changer mechanism that can be faulty. There are some people who would prefer a multi-disc player, which allows you to cycle through different discs easily without having to take out one after the other. A lot of users have been satisfied by the astonishing sound. In general, Onkyo C-7030 is kind of limited in features, and perhaps rather slow, too, but the audio quality is pristine. However, does it really work? Is it durable? These questions are certainly what you have in your mind right now. Of course, with its price, Onkyo C-7030 can be considered as one very affordable and budget-friendly CD player. As far as I'm concerned, I've picked up a new model for getting on for half the price I would have happily paid for something that sounds this good.If you are looking for a cheap, affordable CD player right now, you may have come across the Onkyo C-7030. Apparently, there were 'cosmetic blemishes' on remote and unit but I could not find even a speck of dust on the machine. I'm now considering an Onkyo amp to go with it.Īs an added bonus, I picked this up as a 'graded' unit through Amazon's warehouse deals in the UK. I've found few reviews online in English so hopefully this will rectify things a little.
It also plays MP3s and I'm yet to find a CD it won't accept.Īs a simple player of just about anything you can throw at it (including mp3s), I'd recommend this. It's not going to match up against something twice the price. The sound is deep, bass strong, and treble good: it could have a little more life at the top end but that might just be my speakers. It sells for anything up to £200 online so is not the most expensive cd player but as Onkyo's bottom of the line machine, it's an excellent alternative to the CA 340c / NAD C515BEE / etc. So I bought one of these and I'm extremely satisfied.
