Introduction
Reality reproduced:
SACD 1000: reality in sound...
Super Audio CD
The future in digital sound reproduction is no longer
limited to a closely simulating of reality. The new audio
standard IS reality! The human ear is no longer capable
of distinguishing audible reality from digital reproduction.
At Philips the future starts today with the SACD 1000
Super Audio Compact Disc player. This Super Audio CD
player combines superior sound quality with the
possibility of playing almost all existing audio and video
formats with a single player. Your precious CD
collection retains its value!
The Super Audio standard is based on Direct Stream
Digital (DSD) technology. This new direct-stream digital
format comprises a 1-bit system that has a digital
sampling frequency that is 64 times higher than that of
conventional audio CD. The results are spectacular: a
frequency response of over 50k Hz and a 120 dB
dynamic range over the entire audible spectrum. Mixed
with as many of the original frequencies as possible, the
audio information audible for human ears sounds much
more natural.
All audible frequencies are, after all, embedded in the
frequency range as emitted by the sound source. A
better reproduction does not exist! For the first time
your ears will relive reality.
The next standard: hybrid disc
The Super Audio CD is the evolution of the CD that
provides ultra-high-quality sound. Additional features,
including multi-channel, can be offered. On the high
density (HD) Super Audio CD you may have access to
separate areas, containing two-channel stereo and multichannel.
But that is not all! The hybrid version of the SACD
guarantees backward compatibility with the installed base
of CD and DVD players. In addition to the HD layer, the
hybrid disc contains a standard density CD layer with
conventional two-channel stereo CD audio information.
The two layers are read from the same side of the disc.
The HD layer is read by an DVD laser. The bottom
reflective layer with conventional CD sound is read by
the CD laser through the second, semi-transmissive HD
layer.
and vision
The SACD 1000 will not only surprise you with its
superior reproduction of almost all existing audio
formats. Connected to your TV, your SACD 1000
presents VCD and DVD video information as perfect
digital studio-quality images with truly 3-dimensional
digital multi-channel audio. Story sequences can be
screened from your own choice of camera angle. You
can break down language barriers with sound tracks in
as many as eight languages, plus - if available on disc - as
many as 16 subtitling languages. Video becomes a new
experience. That makes the SACD 1000 an essential
component in a state-of-the-art audio-video system.
Super Audio CD
You will recognize Super Audio CDs
by the logo. There are three types of
Super Audio CDs: single-layer, dual-
layer and hybrid discs. Each type may
contain two areas of recorded information: a High
Quality Stereo area and a High Quality Multi-channel
area.
- The single layer disc may contain both information
areas.
- The dual layer disc may contain both information areas
but a double amount of information can be stored on
the disc thanks to the second layer.
- The hybrid disc may contain not only both information
areas but also a second, standard CD layer, making it
playable on standard CD players.
Recorded information may vary per area. This is
indicated in the disc inlay. Areas can be selected
separately before or during playback. When playing
Super Audio CDs, the player can be operated via the
keys on the player front and the remote control or via
the On-Screen Display on your TV.
Audio CDs contain music tracks only.
You will recognize these CDs by their
logo. You can play them in conventional
style through a stereo system, using the
keys on the remote control and/or front panel, or via the
TV using the On-screen Display (OSD).
Note: Please note that the DTS audio format on the SACD
1000 is only supported on DVD. This product does not
support the playback of DTS encoded CDs.
Digital video
DVD-Video uses state-of-the-art MPEG 2 data
compression technology to register an entire movie on a
single 5-inch disc. DVD’s variable bitrate compression,
running at up to 9.8 Mbits/second, captures even the
most complex images in their original quality.
The crystal-clear digital images have a horizontal
resolution of over 500 lines, with 720 pixels (picture
elements) to each line. This resolution is more than
double that of VHS, superior to Laser Disc, and entirely
comparable with digital masters made in recording
studios.
DVD-Video discs conform to either the PAL or NTSC
video standard. This dual-standard player can play both
types, and presents them in the best possible way on
your multi-standard TV screen.
As the universal video system of the future, DVD-Video
offers optimal images on any TV screen.
You will recognize Video CDs by the
logo.
Depending on the material on the disc
(a movie, video clips, a drama series,
etc.), these discs may have one or more tracks, and
tracks may have one or more indexes, as indicated on
the disc case. To make access easy and convenient, your
player lets you move between tracks and between
indexes.
English
DVD-Video
You will recognize DVD-Video discs by
the logo.
Depending on the material on the disc
(a movie, video clips, a drama series,
etc.), these discs may have one or more Titles, and each
Title may have one or more Chapters. To make access
easy and convenient, your player lets you move between
Titles and between Chapters.

Unpacking
First check and identify the contents of your SACDplayer package, as listed below:
- SACD player
- Remote Control with batteries
- 2-core power cord
- Audio cable (4x)
- Digital coaxial cable
- Video cable
- YCBCRcable
- Instructions for use
If any item is damaged or missing, please inform your

Placement
● Place the player on a firm, flat surface.
● Keep away from domestic heating equipment and
direct sunlight.
● In a cabinet, allow about 2 inches of free space all
around the player for adequate ventilation.
● If the SACD player cannot read SACDs/CDs/DVDs
correctly, use a commonly-available cleaning
CD/DVD to clean the lens before taking the SACDplayer to be repaired. Other cleaning methods may
destroy the lens. Always keep the tray closed to
avoid dust on the lens.
● When it is moved from a cold to a warm
environment, allow the SACD player to acclimatize
for at least 2 hours in order to avoid damage. When
suddenly placed in a warm environment, the lens
may cloud over. Playing an SACD/CD/DVD will not
be possible then. Wait until the moisture
evaporates.

20 PREPARATION
Delay times - DVD only
Connecting the power supply
Your SACD player is set to correctly reproduce
synchronized Digital Surround Sound in a listening area
where the surround speakers are about 150cm nearer
to the listening position than the front speakers and the
center speaker is in line with the front speakers. To
adjust for other listening-area arrangements, adapt delay
times according to the following:
Digital Surround
Measure the distances in centimeters from the front
speaker plane and from the surround speaker plane to
the listening positioning plane.
Substract the surround distance from the front distance
and divide by 30. The result is the required Surround
Channel delay time in milliseconds.
If the center speaker is on the front speaker plane, no
center speaker delay is needed. You can adjust the delay
time in the “User Preference Settings”. See Personal
preferences - Sound - Speaker Settings. If, however, it is
nearer to the listening position, measure the distance in
centimeters between the front and center speaker
planes and divide by 30. The result is the required
Center Channel delay time in milliseconds.
1Check if the power voltage as shown on the type
plate (on the back of the player) corresponds to
your local power voltage. If not, adjust the voltage
selector (1) to match with your local power supply.
2Plug the female end of the power cable supplied into
the Power connector POWER SUPPLY (2) on the
rear of the player.
3Plug the male end of the cord into an AC outlet.
Note: When the player is in the STANDBY or OFF position, it
will still consume some power. If you wish to disconnect your
player completely from the power supply, pull the plug from
the AC Outlet.
Caution: Only qualified service personnel should
remove the cover or attempt to service this
device.
