Hi, please read the following information for further details: www.onkyo.com/manual/sup/upd/mqa_onk.pdf

Hi, in this case you will need a pre-amplifier, which will offer all the controls you need for volume/treble/bass, etc.: source device (e.g. NS-6170) -> pre-amplifier -> mono blocks The NS-6170 is a source device only (e.g. like a CD player), not offering any possibilities to tune or tweak the sound (and not meant to do this :) Thanks!

Aha, thank you !

please contact our Tech Support directly. I'm sure my colleagues can help you or answer your question. support@eu.onkyo.com

Hi, they are intended to be used with an amplifier which connects to the RCA output terminals. Thanks for asking!

@@OnkyoEU Thanks, I'll be looking into the R-N855.

This depends on your listening preferences - please choose the filter setting you prefer!

Hi, the colleagues form the support team said that its the same as Chromecast Audio - 24/96, and that the DAC would not matter in this case. Thanks for asking!

Hi, this device supports Spotify Connect - you will need to use the Spotify App to stream music from the app the network audio player (no need for the Onkyo app in this case).

YES

The cable ;-)

Hi, we're afraid we (in Europe) do not have any information about the availability in the USA, sorry!

Hi, you can use the optical/coax digital outputs to connect an external DAC, if you prefer.

@@quinflint4619 Of course you can also connect to the coax/digital outputs, but some devices / amps may have a low grade digital/analog converter (DAC). In this case you may prefer to use the high quality DACs of the NS-6170, connecting to the analog outputs instead.

Basically there is not much difference - except from the width.

@@quinflint4619 Dear Fred, the C-755 is using a smaller form factor, to be combined with the R-N855 Network Receiver. If you do not mind the smaller size, the two CD players share similar specs. However, the C-7030 has a slightly better SNR (107 vs 105 db), a digital optical and coaxial out (while the C-755 features a digital coaxial out only) and supports WMA CDs, too...

Hi, prices vary depending on region/country/dealer - please check with your local hifi dealer, thank you!
