Direct Digital Charging Dock for iPhone

via the Lightning Connector and recharge the device while 
you listen. The receiver automatically detects your device, 
selects dock input, and allows you to use the system remote 
to quickly navigate to your desired track. Audio signals are 
transported in pure digital form—bypassing the docked 
device’s analog conversion and gain circuits—for noticeably 
clearer, deeper, and more realistic sound.

Connect, Charge, and Play via USB 

Users of legacy iPhone and iPod models can link up in 
moments via the front-panel charging USB port, which 
also enables direct-digital audio transfer on these devices. 
If your smartphone or tablet features a mini-USB port, you 
can access the MP3 files stored on the device as well. You 
can also plug in a flash memory drive and use the system 
remote to select an MP3 library—no hassle, and no fuss.

Clean and Efficient Digital Amplifier

As well as being more energy-efficient than Class AB designs, 
digital amplifiers are capable of producing remarkably clean, 
detailed sound. Onkyo’s low-noise circuit topology reduces 
distortion across a wide frequency bandwidth, resolving new 
layers of depth and detail in your favorite recordings. 

Compact and Solid Two-Way Speakers 

The CS-255 includes a pair of two-way bass-reflex-type 
speakers that incorporate a 3

˝ (10 cm) woofer and a

/

˝ (2 cm) balanced-dome tweeter. The cabinets feature 

stylish rounded edges and a front-to-rear taper that helps 
reduce internal standing waves—an unwanted acoustic 
resonance that can muddy the sound. Compact in size yet 
surprisingly robust, these magnetically shielded speakers fit 
comfortably and sound great almost anywhere you choose 
to place them. 

Super Bass Function

Sometimes the music calls for a little extra bass punch. 
The two-mode Super Bass function on the CS-255 gives a 
welcome boost to the low-frequency band, adding just the 
right amount of heft to bass guitar and kick drum without 
sounding distorted, harsh, or boomy.

Smooth Front-Loading CD Player

While there is no shortage of weird and wonderful  
CD-loading designs out there, the novelty wears off after 
yet another scratched disc. The traditional front-loading CD 
player remains the simplest and safest way to enjoy your 
disc-based media. The CS-255 incorporates a smooth front-
loading mechanism, while track- or album-repeat modes—
plus a random playback option—offer greater flexibility. And 
it’ll even play your homemade mixes and MP3-encoded 
compilation discs without any bother.

FM/AM Tuner with 60-Station Preset

Browse up to 60 of your favorite preset radio stations 
(with 30 presets for the AM band, and 30 more for FM) at 
the touch of a button, without fear of losing your original 
program. Once you’ve got all your favorites locked in, you’ll 
never be short of something to listen to again.
