The DVD-756 is endowed with technology to unleash the full impact of DVD-Video picture quality. The DVD-756 also
uses 11-bit, 216-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-756 will reproduce with the highest resolution,
DVD images on Progressive-compliant monitors and projectors. In addition to these features, the DVD-756’s HDMI port
supports multi-channel DVD-Video and DVD-Audio output when connected to HDMI compliant equipment. 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.

■ HDMI Interface with Multi Channel Audio (*1)

• 480P/720P/1080i Scaling

■ Progressive Scan featuring DCDi by Faroudja

Progressive Scan technology represents a vast improvement over the interlaced
scanning method used in TV broadcasts and other conventional applications, as
it can process around twice as much video data to produce a sharper, noise­free picture with finer details. High-definition video images are faithfully displayed
with optimum naturalness and beauty. Now, this DCDi technology that was
available only in the higher-end DVD players has been included in Denon's
affordable DVD-756.
The DVD-756 has a feature of manual IP detection mode selection. Even if a
DVD-Video disc was mastered with wrong progressive flag or without a flag, the
user can select a mode (Auto1, Auto2, Video1, 2 or 3) to enjoy higher
performance of picture quality.

■ DVD-R/RW Playback (*2)

With the increasing presence of DVD recorders, consumers are increasingly

These discs can be played back on the DVD-756.

■ CD-R/RW (MP3 / Windows Media Audio 9 / JPEG / Kodak Picture CD)
Playback (*2)

The DVD-756 supports the CD-R/RW format. It plays finalized CD-R/RW discs
(single-session or multi-session) containing MP3/WMA9 audio files. It also reads
still photos in the Kodak Picture CD or JPEG format taken by a digital camera.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an audio compression format developed with
Microsoft technology. It claims to offer the highest quality sound available in the
industry. If WMA is used to compress a music CD on a PC, for instance, using the
new Encoder 9, the quality of sound at 48 kbps is said to be equivalent to that of
the original CD.
