UDP-89

OUTPUTS

UDP-89 features Wolfson 24-bit/192kHz audio DACs and

high-end analogue circuitry for audiophile performance. And

the UDP-89 is the only DVD player available with stereo and

5.1 balanced audio outputs to get the very best from high-

resolution SACD and DVD-Audio formats.

TOUGH, PROFESSIONAL BUILD QUALITY

Definitely not based on a consumer device, the UDP-89 is

designed and built from the ground up for demanding

professional use. The rugged, rack-mounting chassis houses a

pro-grade disc drive comprising of a durable disc loader with a

smooth, positive action, and a high-performance laser

assembly, extensively tested for dependable, long-term use.

COMPREHENSIVE FEATURE SET

A complete set of professional audio and video outputs (see

above) and a full complement of professional features equip

the UDP-89 for use in almost any audio or video disc playing

application. The A-B repeat mode makes the UDP-89 ideal for

use in fixed installations, while professional cueing functions,

RS232 control and a parallel fader start interface are

essential features that make it ideal for any playout

application. 

ON-BOARD AUDIO PREAMP

The inclusion of a multichannel preamplifier

makes it possible to connect the UDP-89

directly to an active 5.1 speaker system,

with versatility and convenience enhanced

yet further by the inclusion of a volume

control which can also be controlled

remotely via RS232 or the supplied infra-

red remote control.

And wherever space is at a premium, users

will appreciate that the UDP-89 can be

securely mounted in just 1U of rack space.
