[. . . ] NEW MODEL INFORMATION DVD Video Player DVD-1500 A Remarkable World of Visual and Sonic Beauty from DENON's Latest Digital Technologies The DVD-1500 DVD video player lets you enjoy both video and musical programs in a single unit. The beauty of the visual images is reproduced from DVD discs by the video circuit section which employs a 27-MHz, 10-bit video D/A converter. The audio circuit section, which recreates the beauty of the sound recordings, uses a 24-bit, 96-kHz audio D/A converter. [. . . ] This connection method provides the best video quality, compared to "S"-video and composite video connections. s On-screen Display A simple press of the Display button on the remote controller lets you see the current operating status of the DVD-1500 within an easy-to-read display on screen. The various operations and settings are easily changed using the remote controller while monitoring the screen display. s s s s 10-bit Video D/A Converter The 10-bit video D/A converter section reproduces video images more faithfully and in greater detail than conventional 9-bit processing. This high-performance converter lets you enjoy the best DVD picture possible, ideal with today's high performance video monitors and large screen displays. Advanced Digital Servo High performance in reading pit information on the disc and in digitally processing that information improves the quality of the picture and sound that are reproduced. The DVD-1500 features a new servo DSP integrated circuit with a learning algorithm that has been optimized for such fluctuating factors as readings from the disc and digital processing to ensure further improved performance. Automatic adjustments by the servo preserve the data integrity of the signals being reproduced. s NEW s MODEL INFORMATION s DVD-1500 Closed Caption Provides on-screen closed captioning, similar to TV broadcasts, with DVDs that are closed caption encoded. s CD-R Audio Playback (*1) The DVD-1500 plays CD-R audio discs. Compression Function (*2) The DVD-1500 includes a compression feature that is convenient late at night or other times when you want to listen to a recording at low volume. During normal playback, when the volume is turned down, the gaps between the loud and soft sounds are too great, making it more difficult to hear the sound effects or lyrics. The compression function, however, improves sound clarity at low volume levels. Other Versatile Features · Multi-Angle Function (*3) · Multi-Sound Function (*3) · Multi-Subtitle (*3) · Headphone Jack · Playback Memory Function · Energy-Saving During Standby · Auto Power OFF Double-speed Drive System The DVD-1500 is equipped with a drive mechanism capable of reading discs at double speed. Since information is read and held in a buffer before it is reproduced, if external vibrations or other factors cause the pickup to skip, the pickup has time to return to its correct position and avoid interruptions in sound. The DVD-1500 thus ensures stable playback of the disc. s s *1 Discs that have been poorly finalized following recording may be only partially playable or not playable at all. *3 The DVD software needs to have this feature.
