High-quality DVD Player with 24-bit/192-kHz DVD-AUDIO and Progressive ScanN E W M O D E L I N F O R M A T I O NDVD-1600DVD Audio/Video Playern Design for High-quality DVD Audio SoundThe Hi-Fi and digital technology that DENON has nurtured over its longyears of experience has been tweaked to bring out the vast potential ofDVD-Audio.• Audio Only ModeThe DVD-1600 includes an Audio Only mode when playing DVD-Audiosources to turn off the video circuit and ensure that noise does not affectthe purity of the audio signal. The use of thoroughly tested parts ensuresthat the high sound quality is consistent and reliable.• 24-bit, 192-kHz High Resolution Audio D/A ConvertersDVD-Audio is capable of reproducing a stunning dynamic range of 144dB (a theoretical value) over the vast sonic spectrum from around 2 Hzto nearly 100 kHz. To faithfully reproduce all of the incredible detail thatDVD-Audio has to offer, the DVD-1600 features 24-bit digital-to-analogconversion, with the ability to handle up to 192-kHz sampling frequen-cy. This provides incredible dynamic range (theoretically nearly 50 dBmore than CD) along with extended high frequency response (to nearly100 kHz, compared to CDs 20 kHz high frequency limit).n Bass ManagementWhen playing multi-channel Dolby Digital, LPCM sources, it is possibleto preset speaker configurations and delay times.n Cinema Voice ModeThe Cinema Voice mode lets you raise the volume of just the dialog toadjust the balance between it and the other components of the soundsuch as the background effects. When you are watching a movie, forinstance, this feature lets you hear the dialog more easily. The CinemaVoice feature works on the analog outputs with Dolby Digital-encodedDVD sources.n Progressive ScanProgressive Scan technology represents a vast improvement overthe interlaced scanning method used in TV broadcasts and otherconventional applications, as it can process around twice as muchvideo data to produce a sharper, noise-free picture with finer details.High-definition video images are faithfully displayed with optimumnaturalness and beauty.n Highest resolution 10-bit, 54-MHz Video D/A Conversion SystemThe DVD-1600 employs a 10-bit, 54-MHz video D/A converter.n 3 MB Buffer MemoryThis unit is equipped with a 3 MB buffer memory to ensure that bothpicture and sound are played without interruption when the DVD discshifts from layer 1 to layer 2, or in the rare event of a pickup dropout.n 3 Picture ModesThe DVD-1600 provides Cinema mode and Custom mode besides theusual Normal mode for picture quality. Cinema mode expands yourviewing experience by matching picture quality to the scene of themovie being played. When a dark scene appears, for instance, Cinemamode automatically detects the details hidden in the darker areas andmakes them easier to see. It suppresses glare on CRT television tubesand recreates resolution with a graceful touch. User mode lets youadjust Contrast, Color, and Brightness to improve picture qualityaccording to your own liking.n Color Component Video OutputThe DVD-1600 provides color component video (Y, CB/PB, CR/PR) outputthat ensure the best reproduction of fine color detail with today’s high-end video monitors and large screen projectors that feature componentvideo inputs. This connection method provides the best video qualitycompared to “S”-video and composite video connections.TENTATIVEThe DVD-1600 is designed to bring out the best performance of both pure audio and A/V sources. The Audio Only mode allowsthe audio signal from DVD-Audio sources to maintain its purity as it bypasses the video circuitry and is D/A converted at the veryhigh resolution of 24 bits and 192 kHz sampling. As a video player, the DVD-1600 converts video signals at the very high resolutionof 10-bits and 54 MHz. The DVD-1600 also gives you a Headphone Virtual Surround feature that lets you enjoy the effects ofDolby Digital multi-channel sound through your headphones.
