DVD-Audio/Super Audio CD Playback
The DVD-S2500 is compatible with both DVD-Audio and
Super Audio CD. These multi-channel music formats
provide a surround sound music experience that is much
more natural and lifelike than normal stereo.
HDCP and HDMI Compatibility
HDCP and HDMI are both advanced versions of DVI
(Digital Video Interface). They provide superb video
quality, much better than a component connection.
HCDP includes content protection and HDMI handles
both video and audio. These connections provide 480p,
576p, 720p and 1080i digital video output capability.
Dual i.LINK (IEEE1394) Terminals
i.LINK provides a digital connection for DVD-Audio
Linear PCM, Super Audio CD DSD (Direct Stream Digital)
and other high quality audio sources.
DCDi Progressive Scanning with 3:2 Pull-Down
The DVD-S2500 has a progressive scan processor built
in, so progressive video images can be viewed on a
digital TV or monitor. Also it provides Motion
Adaptive Noise Reduction, Cross Colour Suppressor,
Aspect Ratio Conversion and TrueLife Enhancer.
216 MHz/12-Bit Video DAC
This new high performance video DAC ensures
superior image quality with all video sources.
Aluminium Front Panel
An aluminium front panel is used to effectively
shield sensitive low-level circuitry from external
noise and electronic radiation generated by dimmer
switches, HVAC, fluorescent lighting and video
display (CRT, LCD, Plasma). This ensures that the
DVD-S2500 product provides optimum sonic
performance in the widest range of installation
environments.
