Audio/Video & Super Audio CD

The DVD-2200 is endowed with PureProgressiveTMtechnology to unleash the full impact of DVD-Video picture
quality. The DVD-2200 also uses a 12-bit, 108-MHz video D/A converter to faithfully preserve the delicate low-level
signals often lost during D/A conversion. With these advanced video image technologies, the DVD-2200 will reproduce
with the highest resolution, DVD images on Progressive-compliant monitors and projectors. For sound, it is high
quality audio D/A conversion and Digital Bass Management that will bring out the best of not only Super Audio CD
and DVD-Audio discs, but your entire CD collection as well.

Player with PureProgressiveTMCircuit

■

Universal player supporting high-grade, next-generation media

The DVD-2200 aspires to be the true "universal" player capable of playing all
types of 12cm discs, including next-generation media such as DVD-Audio and
Super Audio CD. Multi-channel recordings on DVD-Audio and DVD-Video discs
as well as Super Audio CDs, video CDs and music CDs can all be enjoyed in one
player. The DVD-2200 is also equipped with MP3 digital audio compression and
JPEG digital video compression decoders. Since this player supports DVD-R/RW,
+R/RW and CD-R/RW formats, it will play DVD-R/RW and +R/RW discs recorded
in DVD recorders and other devices, and CD-R/RW discs containing files in MP3
or JPEG format recorded on a computer. For any format you want to play, the
DVD-2200 is packed with DENON's acclaimed high-end audio technology and
engineering, giving you superior sound and picture quality.

■

Independent Power Supply

Independent power supplies have been provided for the audio signal processing
block, the video signal block and other areas to eliminate mutual distortion
with other blocks. Clean supplies of power to the various circuits contribute
to high picture and sound quality.

■

Discrete Design

To ensure high-quality sound and video playback, all circuits have been
given in a discrete design, a feature inherited from high-end equipment.
The audio and video circuits have been mounted on separate boards that
are in complete isolation from each other in order to thoroughly suppress
high-frequency video noise.
The power section has been given in a discrete design as well, with separate
power units provided for the audio block, video block, and digital block,
ensuring a clean, stable supply of power to all circuits. Interference among
the circuits is thus thor­oughly suppressed to pro­duce high-grade playback
with minimal noise.
From basic design to ease
of use, the DVD-2200 has
been carefully designed in
every detail to deliver
superior playback
performance.

PureProgressive™ Circuit

The DVD-2200's interlace to progressive converter is the new SiI504 Converter
with PureProgressive™ circuitry from Silicon Image. The SiI504 features faster
moving picture detection and improved film/video mode recognition capability.

High-speed processing: This Sil504 Progressive Converter is capable of
processing 6 billion operations per second, providing the finest in motion-adap­tive de-interlacing.

Moving picture detection: PureProgressive™ features 3:2 pulldown detection,
which converts 24-fps Film based material to 60-fps TV/Video playback, while
also detecting Video based material, animation and graphics. PureProgressive™ is
capable of reproducing DVD-Video discs containing both Film and Video material,
as well as high picture quality progressive video sources, while avoiding the
flickering caused by detection delays of these different formats. In processing
moving video signals, a conventional progressive converter performs detection
on a full frame-by-frame basis, while PureProgressive™ stores 4 fields of video
signals in a 64-Mbit SDRAM buffer, enabling the detection and processing on a
pixel-by-pixel basis to achieve greater precision in discriminating between
moving and still pictures.

Improved 3:2 pulldown detection: There are cases in which 3:2 pulldown data
signals on DVD-Video discs are not in sync.
The PureProgressive™ converter will quickly detect the non-sequential points and
perform appropriate corrective measures at high speed to minimize picture flickering.

12-bit, 108-MHz Video D/A Converter

■

An extremely high-speed video D/A converter is a critical component in superior
quality digital video playback. The DVD-2200 therefore uses a 12-bit, 108-MHz video
D/A converter to ensure highly accurate playback of delicate, low-level video
signals and give you a vivid picture that is faithful in every detail. Oversampling
of 4x is used for both Progressive and Interlaced video signals, allowing more
detailed D/A conversion. Higher quality picture reproduction is also possible
thanks to a filter with flexible shutout characteristics that is used for the analog
filter in the latter stage. Furthermore, the DVD-2200 uses two separate video
D/A converters to process Progressive and Interlaced signals. This eliminates
mutual interference between the Progressive and Interlaced signals.

■

Noise Shaped Video (NSV)

The NSV feature works in the digital domain to reduce noise in the video signal
frequency band in order to enhance video signal linearity.

NEW MODEL INFORMATION

■

Super Sub Alias Filter

The S/N ratio can be improved when unwanted signals of higher than 6.75
MHz following D/A conversion are cut. The DVD-2200 thus uses a Super Sub
Alias Filter that produces flat characteristics, ensuring that adverse influences do
not affect video signals inside the essential frequency band, and folding noise is
eliminated. In the DVD-2200, the Super Sub Alias Filter is applied to the chroma
signal as well as the luminance signal, improving color reproduction.

■

Burr-Brown 24-bit, 192-kHz Audio D/A Converter

The DVD-2200 uses a 24-bit, 192-kHz audio D/A converter that is well protected
from noise caused by fluctuations in current from the power supply. Since the level
of quantization noise within the frequency range is uniform for all frequencies, this
D/A converter ensures that all the sound you hear is as clear and noise-free as
possible.

■

Pure Direct Mode

The DVD-2200 features a Pure Direct Mode that further improves sound quality.
For example, during analog audio output, Pure Direct can turn off video signal
outputs and the front panel display which can easily influence the sound quality
of the analog audio signals.

■

Digital Bass Management

When playing DVD-Video, DVD-Audio or Super Audio CD sources, it is possible to
preset speaker configurations. The crossover point is fixed at 80 Hz with 12 dB high
and 24 dB low pass filter slopes.

■

SRS True Surround

The DVD-2200 is equipped with SRS's True Surround circuit, a high-grade
surround virtualizer that lets you enjoy the excitement of 5-channel audio with only
using 2 speakers.
