Introduction

Welcome to the Primare V10 DVD Player! This chapter introduces you to its key
features, and explains how you can use it to take advantage of any of the
video and audio formats currently available.

WELCOME TO THE V10 DVD PLAYER

The V10 provides a comprehensive range of features to make it ideal as the
heart of a superb home entertainment system.

Enjoy DVD movies at their best

The Primare V10 DVD Player will show all your favorite movies in DTS, Dolby
Digital, or Dolby Pro logic surround. It supports both PAL and NTSC format,
and if your television does not support both formats it can perform automatic
conversion between them.

Play your existing music collection and Super CDs

The Primare V10 DVD Player can also play your entire CD music collection, as
well as CDVs and 24/96 Super CDs. It will also play recordable CDs, as
well as MP3 encoded music collections on CD-ROM.

No compromise design for superb sound and picture quality

The V10 DVD Player uses the best components available to ensure a trouble­free operation for many years. The resulting sound quality is comparable to
dedicated CD players in the same price range.

Careful mechanical design for long-life

As with all Primare units, the solid mechanical design further enhances the
functionality and quality, and ensures that the V10 DVD Player will continue to
provide trouble-free operation for years to come.

Intuitive user interface

In keeping with the philosophy of the Primare range of systems, the V10’s
powerful range of features can be controlled through a very simple and
intuitive interface, designed so that it will not distract you from the pleasure of
watching movies or listening to music on your system.

In fact most of the features of the V10 can be accessed through just six front
panel push buttons. Alternatively the full set of functions, including menu
selection and programmability, is available using the DVD remote control
supplied with the V10.

Introduction

USING THE V10 WITH OTHER PRIMARE PRODUCTS

Although the V10 DVD Player is flexible enough to work with virtually any
other equipment you have in your system, it is ideally suited for use with the
Primare P30 Processor and Primare A30.5 multi-channel amplifier. The P30
Processor will decode the DTS or Dolby Digital output from the V10 to
provide five discrete analogue outputs, and the A30.5 provides the
amplification necessary to drive the five separate loudspeakers in a surround
system.
