Be the first one on your block with a DVD-Audio/Video Player that handles the sonic realism and vast frequency range of the most powerful music format in the audio realm: DVD-Audio! This emerging format uses the digital technology and vast data storage of video DVDs to deliver spectacular sound enriched with the nuance, warmth and subtle overtones of a live musical performance. Watch your friends and neighbors turn green with envy when they're enveloped with this new format's multi-channel surround sound!
This player supports everything DVD-Audio has to offer, including six independent channels of sound that make you feel like you're in the front row of a night club. It also connects to a TV for displaying graphics, text, music videos, etc. Like standard video DVDs, DVD-Audio discs can be loaded with all sorts of extra goodies, including photos of band members, song lyrics, karaoke tracks, expanded liner notes and more. DVD-Audio discs can even contain URL addresses for instant access to relevant Web sites as you listen (or watch).
Although DVD-Audio is a relatively new format, many of your favorite artists already have DVD-Audio titles available, including:
- Buena Vista Social Club
- Deep Purple
- The Doors
- Emerson, Lake & Palmer

- Foreigner

The DVD Audio/Video Player also plays standard CDs and DVDs -- perfect for systems with limited shelf or rack space. Just pop in your favorite movies, and enjoy 5.1 channels of Dolby Digital® and DTS® multi-channel sound. Best of all, the cost on this unit is only moderately higher than that of standard DVD players.
But don't think the DVD-Audio capability is the only feature that makes this unit stand out. This extraordinary component is engineered to address the needs of discriminating audiophiles. It can read DVD-Audio's sampling frequency of 192kHz -- more than four times that of CD! Other features include an uncompromising design that incorporates Advanced Virtual Battery Operation. Using a capacitor to supply its charged power to the audio reproduction circuitry, the technique simulates a battery (pure source of DC current) to virtually eliminate power supply "noise" for faithful reproduction of even the most discrete signal information. Even the cabinetry is impressive: a sleek champagne gold component with a special vibration damping base. Other features include:
