3. AL24 Processing Plus at all channel

AL24 Processing Plus compensates the input digital data to
reproduce the sound with analog waveforms as close as
possible to those existing in nature and with 24-bit quality. The
result is increased musical reproduction capabilities of
reverberations, etc., at low levels, for a sound that seems to
draw you into the concert hall.
Equipped for not only the front left and right channels but also
for the surround left and right, center and subwoofer channels.

4. High precision 24-bit D/A converter

The audio playback circuit includes an advanced segment type
D/A converter with the top technical specifications in the
business, manufactured by Burr-Brown, a company with an
established reputation for D/A converters. This high
performance D/A converter allows not only input of the 24­bit/192 kHz data of DVD-Audio discs, it also includes an analog
pure FIR filter for ideal DSD playback of Super Audio CDs.
Furthermore, the same DAC is used unsparingly for the
surround, center and LFE channels to provide optimum sound
quality during multi-channel playback as well.

5. HDCD®(High Definition Compatible Digital®) decoder
(NOTE 1)

HDCD is an encoding/decoding technology that greatly
reduces the distortion occurring at the time of digital recording
while maintaining compatibility with the conventional CD
format. HDCD allows 20-bit data to be converted into the 16­bit data of current CDs with no loss in sound quality.
The use of this HDCD decoder makes it possible to achieve
the high resolution and low distortion characteristic of HDCD
when playing HDCD-compatible discs, and DENON’s digital
technology optimizes the high sound quality possibilities of
HDCD technology. Furthermore, normal CDs and HDCD­compatible CDs are automatically identified, and the optimum
digital signal processing for that type of disc is used.

6. Dolby Digital (AC-3)/DTS decoder (NOTE 2, 3)

The DVD-5900 is equipped with a built-in Dolby Digital (AC-3)
/DTS decoder, allowing you to recreate the atmosphere of a
movie theater or concert hall when using the DVD-5900 in
combination with an AV amplifier and speakers.

7. Progressive Scan circuit “DCDi

TM

” (NOTE 4)

The DVD-5900 is equipped with a high precision Progressive
Scan circuit “DCDi™” allowing it to reproduce movies and
other images on DVDs with a quality near that of the original.

8. 12-bit/216 MHz video D/A converter (NOTE 5)

The DVD-5900 uses a video D/A converter that conducts D/A
conversion of all video signals at 12 bits and allows 8X
oversampling in the progressive mode to achieve the high
quality picture that DVDs are meant to provide. In addition,
NSV technology reduces noise upon D/A conversion.

9. Thorough vibration-resistant design

(1) Mechanism using a hybrid loader.
(2) The pickup mechanism is positioned at the center to

reduce the effects of external vibrations.

(3) A heavyweight chassis and low center of gravity make for

a low vibration design.

10. Multiple functions

(1) Still picture playback function

Kodak Picture CD (NOTE 6) and Fujifilm Fujicolor CD
(NOTE 7) can be played on the DVD-5900.
Still images stored in JPEG format on CD-R/RWs can also
be played.

(2) Windows Media™ playback function (NOTE 8)

2 Sound output from the DVD-5900’s digital audio output connectors

In the case of bit stream output

*1 Only 48 kHz/16 bit sources are output.
*2 Only 44.1 kHz/16 bit sources are output.
*3 44.1 kHz/16-bit PCM signals are output during CD layer playback.

• Down-mixed to 2 channels for multi-channel PCM sources. (Only the front left and right channels are output for sources for which down­mixing is prohibited.)

• When “OFF” is selected, digital signals are not output from the digital audio output at this time.

• Bitstream signals are signals that are compressed and converted into digital format. They are decoded into multi-channel audio signals
(5.1-channels, etc.) by the decoder.

• Linear PCM audio is the signal recording format used for music CDs.
While the signals are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bit for music CDs, for DVDs they are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bit to 192 kHz/24 bit, providing
higher sound quality than music CDs.

• Packed PCM signals are high sound quality compressed PCM signals that are decompressed with virtually no loss of data.

ENGLISH

High quality digital sound with reduced digital signal transfer loss can be enjoyed by connecting a separately sold Denon Link compatible
AV amplifier.

(7) Denon Link connections

2 DENON LINK Second Edition:

• With the DENON LINK, Second Edition (2nd), the audio signals are transferred from the DVD player to the AV amplifier in digital
form, with the same quality as the signals recorded on the disc.

Digital transfer of the high quality multi-channel signals of DVD audio is possible for all discs. (A Second Edition compatible DVD
player and AV amplifier are required for this.)

2 Compatibility with previous models:

• With Second Edition, the format of the signals handled differs from that of the previous version of DENON LINK.

Thus, digital audio signals output from a DENON LINK S.E. (2nd) compatible DVD player can only be played on a DENON LINK
S.E. (2nd) compatible AV amplifier (Playback with DENON LINK connections is not possible when using a DENON LINK S.E.
compatible DVD player in combination with an AV amplifier that is not S.E. compatible.).

• If the DENON LINK connector on your AV amplifier is not S.E. compatible, please consult your authorized DENON dealer.

• “S.E.” is indicated on the rear panel’s DENON LINK connector on DENON LINK S.E. compatible products.

2 DENON LINK S.E. settings:

• At “AUDIO SETUP” under “Default Settings”, set “DENON LINK” to “2nd”. (See pages 33 to 37.)

• (If you connect the DENON LINK, set to “2nd”.)

17

ENGLISH

NOTES:

•

When DENON LINK is set, the down-mixed audio signals are output from the only front left and right terminals. T o use the analog
terminals, cancel the DENON LINK setting (set to “OFF”).

•

“AUDIO CHANNEL”, “DIGITAL OUTPUT”, “LPCM (44.1kHz/48kHz)”, “IEEE 1394”, “SOURCE DIRECT” and “BASS
ENHANCER” cannot be set at “AUDIO SETUP” under “Default Settings” when using the DENON LINK connector.

•

When using the DENON LINK, select something other than “DIGITAL OFF” or “ALL OFF” at “PURE DIRECT”. If “DIGIT AL OFF”
or “ALL OFF” are selected, the digital circuit is stopped and signals cannot be output from the DENON LINK connector.

•

The DVD-5900’s speaker settings are invalidated when the DENON LINK connector is connected.

• When the DENON LINK 2nd connection, Super Audio CD’s

signals are not output from the DENON LINK connector. Please use

the analog audio output terminals.

The simple connection of one IEEE 1394 cable permits high quality digital transfer of the following between devices having IEEE 1394
connectors: the audio of DVD video, DVD audio that up until now could only be connected by 5-conductor audio cable in an analog
connection, or Super Audio CD and other multi-channel audio. (unless DENON LINK connections)
(IEEE 1394 is an international standard established by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. of the U.S.)

NOTES:

•

Please use the included IEEE 1394 cable. When using a cable other than the included IEEE 1394 cable, please use a 4-pin IEEE
1394 cable with a length of 3.5 m or less for S400 or higher.

• The “IEEE 1394 audio signal (A&M protocol)” output from the DVD-5900’s IEEE 1394 connector not out video signals, please
connecting to a TV or Monitor with “component video output” or “S-video output” or “Video output”. (See pages 10, 11).

•

The “IEEE 1394 audio signal (A&M protocol)” output from the DVD-5900’s IEEE 1394 connector can only be received on AV
equipment equipped with an IEEE 1394 connector. Digital video (DV), personal computer, and i-Link (a Sony trademark) audio
signals cannot be sent and received. Incorrect connections could lead to malfunction. Connect as instructed in the other device’s
operating manual. Note that there is no guarantee of the operation of the connection even between devices supporting IEEE

1394. Whether or not data and control signals can be transmitted and received between devices supporting IEEE 1394 depends
on the functions of the respective devices.

•

When connecting using the IEEE 1394 connector, only connect one cord between the two devices. Never connect two cords
between the two devices (loop connection). If this is done, the signal output from one device will return to the same device,
resulting in malfunction.

•

No audio signals are output from the DVD-5900’s analog connectors when IEEE 1394 is set.
To use the analog connectors, set the IEEE 1394 setting to “Cancel (Off)”.

•

When using the IEEE 1394 mode, the “AUDIO CHANNEL”, “DIGITAL OUTPUT”, “LPCM (44.1 kHz/48 kHz)”, “SOURCE
DIRECT” and “BASS ENHANCER” settings under “SETUP” – “AUDIO SETUP” cannot be made.

•

When using the IEEE 1394 mode, select something other than “DIGITAL OFF” or “ALL OFF” at “PURE DIRECT”. If “DIGITAL
OFF” or “ALL OFF” are selected, the digital circuitry is stopped and signals cannot be output from the IEEE 1394 connector. (See
pages 47, 48.)

•

When the IEEE 1394 connector is connected, the DVD-5900’s speaker settings are disabled.

•

During playback of a device supporting IEEE 1394, please do not disconnect the IEEE 1394 cable of the other device, do not
connect a new device, and do not switch the power on or off. Doing so may interrupt the audio.

•

Among the devices that support IEEE 1394, when the power is in the standby mode or off, some devices are not able to relay
data. Please see the operation manual of the connected device that supports IEEE 1394. This unit is not able to relay the IEEE
1394 data while in the standby mode.

•

Devices that support IEEE 1394 have the maximum data transfer speed supported by that device marked in the vicinity of the
IEEE 1394 connector. The maximum transfer speed of IEEE 1394 is defined as approximately 100/200/400 Mbps*, with 200
Mbps items having S200 inscribed and 400 Mbps items having S400 inscribed. The maximum IEEE 1394 data transfer speed of
this unit is 400 Mbps. The actual transfer speed may be slower than 400 Mbps when S100 or S200 devices are connected, or
depending on the specifications of the device. Try to ensure that connections are made between devices that have the same
maximum data transfer speed.

* Mbps (Mega bps) is an abbreviation of “Mega bits per second” and indicates the volume of data that can be communicated in 1

second. At 400 Mbps, 400 Mega bits of data is transferred in 1 second.

✽ The DVD-5900’s IEEE 1394 mode is designed based on IEEE Std. 1394a-2000, Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus.
✽ IEEE 1394 network

The following types of connections can be made between devices handling IEEE 1394 audio signals (A&M protocol):
q Daisy chain connections

Connect the sets in series using a single IEEE 1394 cord. Up to 15 sets can be connected.

w Tree (tower) connections

Connect the sets in parallel and in series using a single IEEE 1394 cord. Up to 63 sets can be connected.

Copyright Protection System

To play back through an IEEE 1394 connection the audio of Super Audio CD or DVD (except for discs that may be copied freely), both the
player and the amplifier are required to support a copyright protection system called DTCP (Digital Transmission Content Protection).
DTCP is copy protection technology comprising data encryption and the authentication of the remote device. This unit supports DTCP.
Please see the operation manual of your amplifier for information about your amplifier.

Cautions On Batteries

• Use R6P/AA batteries in this remote control unit.

• Replace the batteries with new ones approximately once a
year, though this depends on the fr equency with which the
remote control unit is used.

• If the remote control unit does not operate from close to the
main unit, replace the batteries with new ones, even if less
than a year has passed.

• The included battery is only for verifying operation.
Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.

• When inserting the batteries, be careful to do so in the
proper direction, following the < and > marks in the remote
control unit’s battery compartment.

• To prevent damage or battery fluid leakage:

• Do not use a new battery with an old one.

• Do not use two different types of batteries.

• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of

batteries in flames.

• Remove the batteries when not planning to use the remote
control unit for a long period of time.

• If the batteries should leak, carefully wipe off the fluid from
the inside of the battery compartment, then insert new
batteries.
