SDP-5

Getting Started

Complementing its audio performance, the SDP-5 features two broadcast-quality video switchers. A 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) signals, as well as Standard- Definition TV signals. Both switchers are designed to pass video signals without alteration or degradation.

Built to professional standards, the SDP-5 is designed to serve as the control center in any high-quality home theater. Even the most demanding enthusiast will be impressed with its unique combination of power, performance, flexibility, and technological sophistication. With extensive expansion capabilities, the SDP-5 represents a solid investment that will retain its value in the face of rapidly emerging technologies.
