Quality Compact Audio with USB and iPod Connectivity
When it comes to mini systems, Onkyo has earned a reputation over the years for class-leading quality. That reputation is further boosted by the CS-535, a system that delivers an audio performance belying its compact size. Much of the credit can go to the proprietary Onkyo technologies driving the system. At the digital conversion stage, VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) works to remove noise from the audio signal. And at the amplification stage, WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology) provides the foundation for a genuinely musical listening experience. As well as handling most music CD formats, the CS-535 offers superb connectivity options. A front-panel USB port lets you connect mass storage devices such as flash memory sticks and MP3 players, while the included Onkyo Dock for the iPod lets you hook up and recharge your iPod.
Amplification Design Built Around the Onkyo Sound
Due to their obvious size limitations, mini audio systems present a range of challenges in terms of amplification design. To overcome these limitations, Onkyos engineers incorporated into the compact CS-535 the same technology thats used in our renowned full-sized amplifiers and receivers: Wide Range Amplifier Technology. WRAT gives the CS535 three distinct advantages: A wider frequency response compared to rival mini audio systems; reduced amplifier distortion at high volume; and better control of current and electrical/mechanical kick-back from the speakers. This enables the CS-535 to deliver audio of surprisingly high quality for such a compact component.
Front Panel USB Interface for Audio Playback from Mass Storage Devices
With the CS-535s front-panel port for a USB mass storage device, you can access MP3 and WMA files from USB flash drives (e.g. memory sticks) or from portable audio players that support the USB Mass Storage Class standard. Once your device is connected, you can use the CS-535s remote control to play back the music files in sequence. The CS-535s USB port makes it easy to relay digital files from your computer for playback, or to use your MP3 player as a music source.
iPod Playback Through the RI Dock for the iPod
The Remote Interactive (RI) system enables Onkyo owners to integrate compatible components for operation via a single remote control. It also enables you to integrate your iPod with the CS-535 through the included Onkyo RI Dock for the iPod. Simply connect the dock to the CD receiver, then place your iPod in the dock for control via the CS-535s remote. The RI Dock has been praised for offering a heftier and more detailed sound than can be experienced with an RCA stereo cable.
VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) and Optimum Gain Volume Circuitry to Maintain Clean Audio Signals
The CS-535 employs VLSC to extract a noise-free analog signal from digital music sources. This technology works to effectively remove pulse noise during the digital-to-analog conversion process, thereby maintaining the purity of the signal. Employed in Onkyos A/V receivers and playback components, VLSC ensures you get the best possible audio output from CDs and compressed formats such as MP3. Under conventional volume attenuation methods that dont involve adjusting the gain, the audio signal drops close to the noise floor at low volumes. This taints the signal with noise that becomes noticeable as the signal is amplified. To prevent such noise from adversely affecting the audio signal, the CS-535 employs Onkyos Optimum Gain Volume Circuitry. This circuitry performs continual gain adjustments that reduce attenuation by 50%, so the signal never comes close to the noise floor.

Quality Speakers with Proprietary Onkyo Performance Features
Designed to match the CR-535 CD receiver, the accompanying D-035 two-way, bass-reflex speakers incorporate a number of Onkyo speaker developments. The woofer cones, for example, are made from a pure cotton weave we call OMF (Onkyo Micro Fiber). This material effectively absorbs unwanted vibrations while providing the requisite diaphragm stiffness to enable a fast and accurate response. Furthermore, each speaker features a balanced-dome tweeter to deliver high-frequency sounds with greater finesse.
