Thule Audio DVD-250 Brochure

Thule Audio's new DVD player is a flexible tool with many applications: you can watch DVD movies

with a razor sharp picture quality and much better surround sound than your local cinema or you can

experience

DVD concerts like Fleetwood Mac or Mike Oldfield as vividly as if you were there yourself.

Unlike nearly all other

DVD Players on the market, the Thule Audio DVD 250B plays CD Music with

the same quality as a reference

CD Player.

[ superior video and audio quality ]

You can look forward to watching your favourite movies again and have an experience beyond

the usual. The unique video circuit in

DVD250 (B) allows all the complex picture variations to be

fully regenerated with deep colour saturation. In this way your

TV or projector, as well as your

old

DVD movies, will have new life.

Around the world movie creators put more and more effort into the sound stage of their

movies, e.g.

DVD movies like “Saving Private Ryan” and “U571”.Thule Audio specialize in designing

sophisticated audio circuits to support just such efforts and with

DVD250 (B) we have spared

no expenses in creating a sound stage like none before - with all details and full dynamic range.

The

DVD250B is also your CD Player.Thule Audio has many years of experience in designing

Hi-Fi products and with

DVD250B we simply had to design a high quality CD Player as well as

an unparalleled

DVD Player. Actually DVD250B is its money worth alone as a CD Player.

[ the visual design ]

The DVD250 has a timeless and elegant design: the key words are simplicity and symmetry. Our

industrial designer has used contrasts to gives the products an elegant graphical expression. You

can choose between two colour variations: black/silver or black/gold. We have harmonized the

visual design with the other Thule Audio products, so that the products together will form a

perfectly balanced whole. The front and knobs of

DVD250 are made in a high quality aluminium

finish and the cabinet is robust with a practical surface.

[ the operation is straightforward ]

You can operate all main functions from the front panel buttons: You can open and close the tray

loader,activate play, stop and jump forward/back. From the remote control you have the main

functions as well as the more specialized functions, like programming your favourite track numbers

and language selection. The remote control is very powerful and works from a long distance.

[ put together your thule audio equipment ]

You can use the DVD250 as a building block in a complete Thule Audio home theatre: e.g.

DVD250 with the

PR250B processor and the new PA250B/PA350B power amplifiers with Virtual

Class A® technology. This set-up is a nice solution if you also want high-end music performance.

However, there are many more possibilities. Some suggestions can be found on our home page.

[ a high tech wonder ]

DVD250 has 6 pcs.10bit video D/A converters like other top class DVD Players. But more importantly,

the video output circuit has a bandwidth of 70

MHZ, which ensures very low distortion and phase

error in the video signal. The video circuit can output RGB and YCrCb video signals simultaneously.

When

DVD250 plays CD disc it uses a RAM buffer of about one second of music, which will

effectively cancel any time error (jitter). The “

B” version of DVD250 contains a high quality stereo

24bit

D/A converter,based on the most modern Burr Brown D/A converters. This makes fully

differential analog output possible. In this way you get a unique

DVD Player whose sound

performance is on par with the best

CD Players on the market.
