Onkyo Delivers Trio Of Progressive Scan DVD Players

20-Sep-02

Onkyo has introduced three modestly-priced DVD players that feature progressive scan and 192 kHz/24-bit audio digital-to-analog converters. Two of the models are single-play units, and the third is a five-disc carousel changer. In addition to DVD audio/video reproduction, Onkyo's entire line of DVD players are also capable of playing CDs, CD-R/CD-RWs, and MP3-encoded CDs. The DACs used in these players operate at 192 kHz sample rate. The rear panel digital outputs feature the company's excusive Direct Digital Path, so digital signals can be passed to outboard processors (such a those on a home theatre receiver). The entry-level DV-SP300 has a suggested retail price of $200. The step-up DV-SP500 also includes Onkyo's Vector Linear Shaping Circuit (VLSC), which is claimed to generate a smoother output than conventional analog filtering circuits, and is available at a suggested retail price of $300. The DV-CP500 five-disc DVD changer includes true random playback so it can be used as a CD jukebox, and is available at a suggested retail price of $300. All models are currently available.For more information on this and other Onkyo products, visit www.onkyousa.com.
