DVD Audio-Video and Super Audio CD Player with New FAROUDJA Progressive CircuitN E W M O D E L I N F O R M A T I O NDVD-5900DVD Audio-Video Player / Super Audio CD Player New FAROUDJA Progressive Circuit (NTSC / PAL Output)In addition to the Motion Adaptive Deinterlacer that processes video signals inpixel units, high-definition progressive-scan video is made possible by a Filmmode processor that supports 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown material. DCDi technology,famous for its ability to process diagonal lines and edges, produces smooth,natural images free of jagginess. The DVD-5900 is also equipped with 5 pro-gressive-scan modes that enable the user to select the ideal progressive con-version for any of a wide variety of program sources. Dual 12-bit, 216 MHz Video ConverterThe DVD-5900 uses a total of six 12-bit, 216-MHz video D/A converters to tapthe maximum potential of the new FAROUDJA circuit's performance.The DVD-5900 uses independent D/A converters for Progressive andInterlaced picture reproduction.These converters provide a very high sampling frequency of 216-MHz, with8x oversampling used for Progressive and 16x oversampling for Interlacedoperation, resulting in the highest detailed D/A conversion. Discrete Video CircuitSince a filter with ample cutoff characteristics can also be used for the analog low-pass filter, the DVD-5900 reproduces the delicate nuances of video signals,allowing viewers to enjoy the original picture at the highest level of realism. Independent Power SupplyIndependent power supplies have been provided for the audio signal processingblock, the video signal block and other areas to eliminate mutual distortion withother blocks. Clean supplies of power to the various circuits contribute to highpicture and sound quality. Noise Shaped Video (NSV) Super Sub Alias Filter Noise Reduction CircuitBlock noise and mosquito noise, characteristic faults of MPEG-compressedvideo signals, are effectively eliminated to produce a more natural video image.In addition, 3D noise reduction removes minute noise mixed in the video imageto beautifully reproduce only the required video information. Pure Direct ModeThe DVD-5900 includes two Pure Direct modes that further improve soundquality. For example, during analog audio output, Pure Direct can turn offdigital signal outputs, video signal outputs, and the front panel display whichcan easily influence the sound quality of the analog audio signals. The usercan define which operations are to be turned off and store those preferencesin memory. AL24 Processing for All ChannelsDenon has further developed its proprietary AL24 Processing, an analogwaveform reproduction technology, to support the 192-kHz sampling frequency ofDVD-Audio. This new technology, AL24 Processing Plus, thoroughlysuppresses quantization noise associated with D/A conversion of LPCMsignals to reproduce the low-level signals with optimum clarity that will bringout all the delicate nuances of the music. DENON LinkWhen the DVD-5900 is connected via a shielded twisted pair (STP), RJ-45 fittedcable to a Denon Link compliant A/V amplifier, the balanced signal transferoffers lower voltage than coaxial or unbalanced cables. Since DenonLink is farless susceptible to radiated noise, it ensures the highest level of signal transfer. The Denon Link interface has capability to transfer high-grade LPCM 24-bit /192-kHz / 2-channel (*1) digital output. Multi Layer ConstructionSince the high-density data recorded on DVD must be read with absolute accu-racy, vibrations from outside or from internal sources, such as the powersupply, will adversely affect sound and picture quality. A variety of designshave been incorporated in the DVD-5900 to suppress these unwanted vibrations.The bottom of the DVD-5900's chassis features a sturdy 3-layer constructiondesigned to be resistant to vibration. Strong reinforcing frames are also used atthe front and back of the chassis itself. The addition of a 2-layer top cover andlarge insulators serve to suppress external vibration. And the base of thetransformer is made of diecast aluminum that absorbs external vibration aswell as vibration from the transformer itself to secure stable operation.This universal player is equipped with the newly-developed Faroudja progressive-scan circuit and supports Super Audio CD.Each design block incorporates the latest devices and features a discrete circuit design and layout to effectively minimize mutualinterference and realize optimum sound and picture quality. The DVD-5900 also provides the latest connection interfaces,such as DENON Link that allows clean transmission of high-quality digital audio signals.
