Six Degrees of Pristine Hi-fi Playback
For over 40 years, Integra has remained the dedicated arm of Onkyo’s R&D and residential installation expertise, with the CDC-3.4 6-disc CD player serving as a testament to the company's advanced hi-fi heritage. Cutting-edge technologies, inspiring engineering, and comprehensive control abound throughout this 6-CD powerhouse, supporting audiophile-worthy playback and unwavering sonic fidelity. Dual Wolfson D/A converters, Cross-Interleaved Reed-Solomon Code (CIRC) error correction technology and Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry (VLSC) are complemented by a robust, rackmountable chassis, a 40-track programming capacity, and a multitude of repeat modes to supply uninhibited access to detailed, expressive audio that is faithfully reproduced in full stereo wonder. Home audio experts at Sweetwater have marveled at CDC-3.4’s distinctive carousel construction, not merely for its 6-disc capacity and accessibility in virtually any lighting condition, but also for the capability of changing out up to five discs without disrupting playback. With CD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 CD support alongside flexible analog and digital connectivity options, the CDC-3.4 is your all-in-one gateway to pristine listening with virtually every entry in your collection.

Unrivaled circuitry and advanced appointments
Unlike more-common D/A converters that only minimize noise during the conversion stage, the CDC-3.4 is outfitted with its VLSC technology lifted straight from Onkyo’s highest-echelon components. This state-of-the-art D/A conversion circuit succeeds at eliminating digital pulse noise, helping to smooth the waveform while eliciting a noise-free analog signal from a digital source. A pair of multi-bit Wolfson D/A converters and the unrivaled CIRC error correction technology supplement the VLSC system, yielding 128 times oversampling and up to 192kHz/24-bit resolution. Expertly implemented, these meticulous sound-design appointments give way to a luxe listening experience that’s beyond compare, from its near-imperceptible 0.005% total harmonic distortion to wow and flutter rates too low to reach threshold measurability.
Designed to maximize quality, character, and control
Integra’s status as a premier provider of residential installations foregrounds its commitment to supreme hi-fi experiences that extend beyond the latest DAC or circuit advancements. After all, what good is premier tech without a solid foundation? Integra’s designers wondered the same thing, answering with a detailed array of engineering and interfacing solutions. The CDC-3.4 employs the exclusive Direct Digital Path design and features a heavy-gauge, high-purity, shielded cable that delivers the digital bitstream directly to the back panel from the disc — an evolution over the PC board copper traces found in conventional CD players. This is all housed within a robust, vibration-resistant chassis that’s adorned with a sleek, aluminum-brushed faceplate that’s been ergonomically arranged for streamlined access to its 6-disc carousel and detailed face buttons. Its 4-mode display dimmer and real-time indicators ensure seamless operation in virtually any lighting, and the full-function RI remote control grants you uninhibited access to the CDC-3.4’s entire suite of playback possibilities, including 40-track programming and six versatile Repeat modes.
