1. Progressive Scan circuit “Pure ProgressiveTM” (NOTE 1)

The DVD-2800IIis equipped with a high precision

Progressive Scan circuit “Puer Progressive” allowing it to

reproduce movies and other images on DVDs with a quality

near that of the original.

2. 12-bit/108 MHz video D/A converter (NOTE 2)

The DVD-2800IIuses a video D/A converter that conducts

D/A conversion of all video signals at 12 bits and allows 4X

oversampling in the progressive mode to achieve the high

quality picture that DVDs are meant to provide. In addition,

NSV technology reduces noise upon D/A conversion.

3. HDCD® (High Definition Compatible Digital) decoder

(NOTE 3)

HDCD is an encoding/decoding technology that greatly

reduces the distortion occurring at the time of digital

recording while maintaining compatibility with the

conventional CD format. HDCD allows 24-bit data to be

converted into the 16-bit data of current CDs with no loss in

sound quality.

4. CD-R/RW playback compatibility

The DVD-2800IIcan also play CD-R and CD-RW discs (new

recording media).

5. High precision 96 kHz 24-bit D/A converter

The DVD-2800IIis equipped with a 24-bit D/A converter for

faithful D/A conversion of the high quality 24-bit data. This

further enhances such aspects of audio performance as the

S/N ratio, dynamic range and distortion and makes full use

of the possibilities for high quality sound provided by a high

number of bits and high sampling rates.

6. Dolby Digital bitstream output compatibility (NOTE 4)

The DVD-2800IIis compatible with Dolby Digital bitstream

output. When a Dolby Digital decoder is connected, the

three-dimensional sense and positioning of the sound is

recreated extremely naturally, resulting in a strong sense of

presence, as if you were in a movie theater or concert hall.

7. DTS bitstream output compatibility (NOTE 5)

The DVD-2800IIis compatible with DTS bitstream output,

an optional audio format for DVD video. DTS sound can be

enjoyed by connecting a commercially available DTS

decoder and AV amplifier.

8.Many convenient functions

(1)Multiple audio function

Selection of up to 8 audio languages.

(The number of languages offered differs from DVD to DVD.)

(2)Multiple subtitle function

(The number of languages offered differs from DVD to DVD.)

(3)Multiple angle function

The angle of view can be changed.

(For DVDs on which multiple angles are recorded.)

(4)Playback disable function

This function can be used to disable playback of DVDs you do not want children to watch.
