FMJ DV139

With such uncertainty in the future of high definition formats, it is all too easy to forget why
people invest in audio and video system for the home. For some it’s t he love of music and
for others the thrill of a great movie. The DV139 has been designed as a master of both
disciplines. Put simply, the player to deliver the very best in home entertainment now, and
for many years to come.

Some of the most cutting edge DVD technology in the world has been utilised in the DV139.
Its core processor, the Zoran Vaddis 888s, is designed to obtain the very best quality from
all the popular disc types including DVD-Video, CD, DVD-Audio and SACD. Its internal video
processors are from Anchor Bay Technology. For de-interlacing the DV139 uses the ABT102
with class leading bad edit detection and “any format” cadence processing. For video scaling
the ABT1010 is used. This IC is revered as possibly the best scaling engine availab le and
offers outputs at up to 1080p resolution.

To ensure an equally breathtaking audio performance, Wolfson audio DACs provide accuracy
in digital to analogue conversion with high precision, whilst ultra low jitter clockin g ensures
a solid and accurate sound field. Twin toroidal mains transformers mean delicate audio
signals enjoy a completely separate power supply from their digital and video counterparts.
The tri-laminate Acousteel chassis mechanically separates the electronic circuits from
internal or air borne vibration.

Designed for movie and music enthusiasts, the DV139’s specification will delight the most
ardent of audiophiles and videophiles too. In addition, its full suite of Infra Red (IR) and RS
232 control options makes it the perfect choice for high performance custom installations.
