Multi-channel Super Audio CD

Multi-channel SACD is a new generation music format 

that offers ultra high quality music reproduction. With a 

5.1 multi-channel surround sound and full CD 

compatibility both forward and backward, what results 

is unsurpassed audio performance for your listening 

pleasure.

Neodymium Ribbon Tweeters

Enjoy unparalleled, natural and crystal-clear sound 

quality with Omni-directional Neodymium Ribbon 

Tweeter. Dipoles that radiate high frequency sounds in 

a full 360-degree pattern results in a very 'open' wide 

sound spectrum that delivers crisp clarity and high-

pitched detail in the higher tones. This further enhances 

the surround experience in a multi-channel system and 

is especially noticed when listening to Super Audio CD 

sound where the clarity in music is excellent.

Wireless rear speakers

Wireless rear speakers give you scalability and mobility 

in speaker placement. Developed using interference-

free technology, wireless speakers provide full surround 

sound without unsightly wire connections.

CD Upsampling

CD Upsampling is an advanced sound processing 

technology that intelligently upgrades the audio of 

standard CDs by increasing time resolution and 

sampling rate for an improved audio experience.

PAL & NTSC Progressive Scan

Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the 

image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead 

of sending fields with the odd lines to the screen first, 

followed by the fields with the even lines, both fields are 

written at one time. A flicker-free high resolution image 

is created giving you the best viewing experience.

Video Upsampling

Video Upsampling is a technology that decreases 

distortion to dramatically improve picture quality. 

Increasing the video processing to 54MHz or even 

108MHz, is in effect converting the video to 8:8:8* 

(54MHz) or 16:16:16 (108MHz) format which has 

about 4 to 8 time more horizontal resolution bandwidth 

than in standard DVD format. This processing reduces 

the MPEG "mosquito net" distortion dramatically 

resulting in picture quality that is pure and distortion 

free.

Multi-format Movies with DivX

Multi-format playability allows you to play most disc 

formats for maximum disc compatibility and viewing 

pleasure.

Multi-format Music with SACD

Multi-format playability allows you to play most disc 

formats for maximum disc compatibility and listening 

pleasure

Picture CD with MP3 Playback

Picture CD is a CD-R or CD-RW disc on which you can 

store your MP3 and digital pictures. When inserting a 

Picture CD in the DVD player, a screen menu will pop 

up, showing your JPEG's and/or MP3 files on the disc. 

Just select the music and pictures files you wish to enjoy 

and press play or OK. You can watch your pictures on 

TV with your music playing simultaneously.
