Cinema Equaliser: The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital,

DTS or other formats emphasises correction of components that deteriorate

in the high-frequency range due to the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced

in the home theater without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong.

The Cinema Equaliser is a function to correct these high-frequency components

so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to. (For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro

Logic, and DTS surround modes)

Auto Set Up and Room EQ:

Auto Set-up function performs basic settings for

the speakers based on frequency response data for the speakers and the listen-

ing room that was measured by a supplied high-performance microphone, and a

Room EQ (equaliser) function that optimises frequency response characteristics

for the listening room. (Measuring method or the algorithm used for RoomEQ

depends on models)

DVD/CD/Super Audio CD Universal: The ideal player for the customer is one

which can play any type of disc or format. Denon's Universal player can play DVD-

Video, DVD-Audio, current CDs, and also Super Audio CD, as well as DVD-R/RW,

CD-R/RW and PC audio formats such as MP3 and WMA and still picture formats

such as JPEG and Picture CD.

Progressive Scan PAL and NTSC: Denon's DVD players all offer high-grade

IP conversion capabilities. In addition, Progressive conversion is possible for

both PAL and NTSC signals. Besides the existing Pure Progressive circuit of

Silicon Image, Inc., development work has been continuing in a circuit made by

Faroudja, Inc., to ensure that Denon products are always equipped with the lat-

est circuitry and devices. Both circuits offer superior moving picture detection

capabilities that allow Denon's DVD players to play discs containing video

material recorded in both Video mode and Film mode on the same disc.

Faroudja also supplies the DCDi circuit that enhances Progressive conversion

accuracy.

Dual Discrete Video Circuit (D.D.V.C.): Not only does Denon separate

audio and video circuitry in its DVD players to maintain high sound and picture

quality, the interlaced, Progressive, and SCART video output circuits are also

arranged independent of each other. Isolated circuits and boards, the use of

a box chassis, and even the encoder chips (in high-end models) are all exclu-

sively dedicated to individual tasks to minimise mutual interference and

ensure optimum picture quality.

Multi-Layer Construction: Various methods of absorbing vibration have

been adopted in the design of Denon's DVD players to further improve accura-

cy in reading signals from the disc. All players feature a multi-layer construction

in their chassis and top cover, while high-end models incorporate the SVH

loader mechanism to maximise protection of the mechanism from vibration.

Denon Pixel Image Correction (DPIC): Denon Pixel Image Correction, orig-

inal enhancement technology from Denon, corrects images in greater detail.

Denon's newly-developed contour correction circuit uses a new algorithm that

samples a total of 9 pixels of video data to consider the impact of surrounding

pixels on important pixels in the enhancement process. Since pixels in the image

are detected and processed in vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions, this tech-

nology generates more natural contours. The use of separate algorithms for bright-

ness and color signals, the suppression of ringing that easily occurs during

enhancement and other effective processes best suited to the picture also con-

tribute to a more naturally enhanced image with negligible degradation.

Digital Bass Management: When playing multi-channel Dolby Digital,

LPCM or DVD-Audio/MLP sources, it is possible to preset speaker configura-

tions and delay times. The crossover point is fixed at 80 Hz with 12 dB high

and 24 dB low pass filter slopes.

UHC (Ultra High Current) Single Push-Pull Circuit: For the past ten

years, the dream of power amps has been to support low-impedance speak-

ers. Unfortunately, however, the fulfilment of this dream has always been a dif-

ficult proposition, and Denon eventually felt the need to rethink its approach.

The result has been to combine high output power with detailed musical

expression, a high-grade solution that is the first of its kind.

The challenge facing Denon has been to amplify with dynamic strength and

absolute clarity the creative energy transmitted by the artist and to keep apace

with the ever-changing musical signal levels. A hefty power supply unit with

ample reserves and a power amp that is capable of supplying pure, dynamic sig-

nals to the speakers so that the music is heard with absolute transparency are

the primary requirements. Also required are transient response characteristics that

amplify even low-level signals with impeccable precision. No matter how superior

the dynamic range or the frequency characteristics may be, these features are

meaningless if the amp cannot instantly follow the sudden rises and falls in

sound.

Leakage Cancelling (LC) Mounted Twin Transformers, for Wide

Dynamic Range and Low Noise: By employing a large magnetic circuit

with low magnetic flux density, the power transformer achieves superior

response characteristics capable of accommodating musical signals with a

broad dynamic range even in areas of magnetic saturation. The LC mount,

which serves to eliminate mutual interference caused by magnetic fields and

other factors, significantly reduces leakage flux which is a source of noise inside

the amp. The result is a powerful speaker drive that ensures both remarkably

transparent speaker output and low noise.
