SDP-40

Getting Started

Complementing its pristine audio performance, the SDP-40 includes two broadcast-quality video switchers. An ultra-wide bandwidth component video switcher accepts analog component or RGB video signals, while a composite and S-video switcher accepts high-quality NTSC, PAL, or SECAM video signals. The component video switcher can pass High-Definition TV (HDTV) and Standard-Definition TV signals. Both switchers are designed to pass video signals without alteration or degradation.

An unparalleled audio and video control center, the SDP-40 represents a solid investment with awesome power, limitless possibilities, and leading-edge technological sophistication. Even the most demanding enthusiasts will be impressed with its exceptional performance. Add to this extensive expansion capabilities, and the SDP-40 is a must-have addition for any high- quality home theater.
