[. . . ] This commitment to engineering excellence, combined with state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities means every Cambridge Audio product offers the best possible performance. Prior to launch, all designs undergo rigorous evaluation involving meticulous listening and fine-tuning. Such attention to detail results in products that are totally convincing in the reproduction of both tonal colour and dynamic contrast, delivering a vibrant and fluid performance across music of all types.
Engineering and production
Cambridge Audio's philosophy of employing only the finest quality components continues with the Azur range. All models are developed using cutting-edge test and measurement equipment and feature the latest technology. [. . . ] It's time to say goodbye to yesterday's AV system and hear how the Azur 540R can revolutionise your Home Cinema experience.

540D
Combining Cambridge Audio's legendary audio excellence with elegant styling and supreme build quality, the 540D delivers stunning performance from both film and music sources. Audio reproduction is handled by a Crystal CS4360 24-bit/192kHz six channel DAC (digital to analogue converter). Its multi-channel DVD-Audio totally changes the way the listener experiences music. DVDAudio discs have a much greater bandwidth and contain more accurate 24-bit audio (CDs only contain 16-bit audio), plus they can carry 5. 1 surround sound as well as two channel audio. In addition, the 540D is, of course, capable of playing conventional compact discs. Just as impressive is the dazzling video playback thanks to no less than six 12-bit/54MHz video DACs most other products use 11-bit converters. The 540D supports both NTSC and PAL Progressive Scan, offering a considerable leap in picture quality over conventional DVDVideo. The 540D's technological prowess is augmented by the now customary Azur elegance and simplicity of design. Behind the solid aluminium front panel, a low resonance acoustically damped chassis houses the electronics and helps maximise sonic performance. To ensure the 540D's compatibility with any Home Cinema system, a wide range of outputs are provided as standard component, RGB, S-Video and composite. The future of home entertainment is finally here, so sit back and let the 540D show you what you've been missing.

Conventional interlaced image
Progressive Scan image
NTSC and PAL Progressive Scan Progressive Scan offers a considerable leap in picture quality over conventional DVD-Video. Normally, screen lines are drawn twice per frame: once for the even-numbered lines and once for the odd-numbered lines, interlacing 25 or 30 times per second. Cambridge Audio Progressive Scan DVD players scan from top to bottom, using all of the screen lines in one fluid pass, painting 50 or 60 whole frames per second. This creates dramatically clearer images, with far less flicker and distortion.

340C
Like its bigger brothers, the 340C delivers class leading performance using proven high quality Sony laser optics and the same Cambridge Audio servo circuitry found in the award-winning 540C and 640C. Digital to analogue (DAC) conversion comes courtesy of respected chipset manufacturer Crystal. Its CS4338 24-bit/96kHz DAC is coupled to an audio-grade operational amp filter/output stage and benefits from a high quality power supply.

540C
540C features in addition to 340C
The Azur 540C boasts performance, build quality and a specification to embarrass not just its immediate rivals, but many CD players costing at least twice the price. Features include the latest generation WM8716 24-bit/192kHz DAC (digital to analogue converter) from highly respected manufacturer Wolfson, a custom Cambridge Audio servo solution and transport, proven Sony laser optics and proprietary data reclocking for exceptionally low jitter. Completing the package is a slim-line, elegant remote handset that offers complete access to the 540C's wide range of features.

640C
Cambridge Audio's flagship 640C builds on the features of the 540C. Despite its recent world launch, the 640C has already scooped a best buy award from leading publication What Hi-Fi?, which described it as `a fine all rounder. . . Output is 65 watts per channel into eight ohms and the inclusion of a Class `A' follower driver stage, together with high quality polypropylene bypass capacitors reflects the attention to detail that sets the 640A apart from its rivals.
"A fantastic achievement!"

Azur phono preamplifiers
Also available in black
540P
Extending the functionality of Cambridge Audio's critically acclaimed integrated stereo Azur amplifiers and AV receivers are two phono preamplifiers. The entry-level 540P is a high quality Moving Magnet design featuring single-ended `Class A' gain stages and a discrete transistor input stage instead of the more common integrated circuits. The rear panel benefits from gold plated input connectors to minimise signal path interference and reduce surface degradation.
