Introduction

Reality reproduced: Super Audio CD

The future in digital sound reproduction is no
longer limited to a close simulation of reality. The
new audio standard IS reality! The human ear is no
longer capable of distinguishing audible reality
from digital reproduction. 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.

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 120dB 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.

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 multi-channel.

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 two­channel stereo CD audio information. The two
layers are read from the same side of the disc. The
HD layer is read by and DVD laser. The bottom
reflective layer with conventional CD sound is
read by the CD laser through the second, semi­transmissive HD layer.

SACD: reality in sound...and vision

This SACD player will not only surprise you with
its superior reproduction of almost all existing
audio formats. Connected to your TV, your
SACD player presents VCD and DVD-video
information as perfect digital studio-quality images
with truly 3-dimensional digital multi-channel
audio.

Super Audio CD

You will recognize Super Audio CDs by the logo.
There are three types of Super Audio CDs: single­layer, dual-layer and hybrid discs. Each type may
contain two areas of recorded information: a High
Quality Stereo area and a High Quality Multi­channel 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, while playing
Super Audio CDs via the remote control or via
the On-Screen Display on your TV.

Video Connections

If your AV receiver has video output jacks,
connect your receiver (and then to your TV) so
that you can use one TV for several different
video sources (LD, VCR etc.) by simply switching
the input source selector of your receiver.
The player has three types of video output jacks.
Use one of them in accordance with the input
jacks of the equipment to be connected.

S-Video jacks <A>

S (separate) video connection achieves a clearer
picture than composite video connection by
separating color and luminance when transmitting
signals. Use commercially available S-video cable.
Receiver (and TV) with S-video input is required.

Component Video jacks <B>

Component video connection achieves high
fidelity in reproducing colors (better performance
than S-video connection), separating video signal
into luminance (Y, terminal color-coded as green),
and color difference (Pb, blue/Pr, red).
This player has two types of component video
output jacks.

COMPONENT(480p) jacks

Use these jacks when your TV can receive
progressive signals.

●

Progressive Scan provides a flicker free image with
the highest effect on film based sources.

●

Notes:
– Multichannel output and downmixed stereo

– When multichannel is selected as analog output.
The MIXED 2CH (Left/Right) will deliver the Center
channel data and not the downmixed Left/Right. In
some cases, the sound volume will be reduced.

Dolby Surround-compatible: Select this setting

when using an equipment with a Dolby Surround
Pro Logic decoder. In this setting, the 5.1 audio
channels (Dolby Digital, MPEG-2, DTS) are
downmixed to a Dolby Surround-compatible 2­channel output.
3D-Sound: In a setup without rear speakers
(analog stereo output), 3D Sound remixes the six
channels of digital surround into a two-speaker
output while retaining all of the original audio
information. The result is the listening sensation of
being surrounded by multiple speakers.
During DVD or Video-CD playback, these values
can be selected directly with SOUND MODE.

Delay times

The DVD player is set to reproduce correctly
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.
Subtract 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. 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.
