Video Performance

With Blu-ray’s native resolution of 1080p and pure digital transmission via HDMI the picture quality is nothing short of stunning. Even standard definition DVD’s get a boost from NAD’s upscaling engine with resolution to 1080p. The T 587 also supports 1080p at 24 frames per second for the most fluid motion from film based material (this must be supported by the TV display) avoiding the “3:2 Pull Down” motion artifacts common on DVD Players.

Audio Performance

Most Blu-ray Discs offer a true high definition audio 7.1 Linear PCM soundtrack with 24 bit resolution, and the T 587 supports this format via HDMI. At last we have studio master quality in a home format! Also supported are the new HD formats from Dolby and DTS that offer ‘lossless’ compression. These can be decoded in the T 587 and sent as LPCM via HDMI, or can be forwarded in compressed form to another component that supports decoding. Of course the legacy formats of Dolby Digital and DTS are also supported and sent as bitstreams via HDMI, Coax or Optical connections. Dolby Digital Plus is a new and backwardly compatible Dolby format that increases the bit rate considerably for improved fidelity and also offers support for up to 10.2 channels.

There is also support for Audio CD’s and CD-R’s with MP3 or WMA decoding. There is even a front panel USB port to allow playback of music files stored on a memory stick or portable MP3 Player.

Exciting new features

BD Java and BD Live, when supported by the source material, offer a new level of interactivity with your media. BD Live will connect over a broadband network to the studio that produced the movie you are watching and will offer additional material and alternate takes in real time to your Home Theatre.

Details that matter

The T 587 has a very fast loading time for Blu-ray Discs, typically just a few seconds. Many BD players take over a minute before you can get picture, sound and navigation. This may not sound like much, but it seems an eternity if you are waiting to start watching your favourite movie. Other nice touches not commonly found include an IR Input for integration with advanced control and automation systems. Specially developed silicon rubber feet isolate vibrations from the player and the environment for the best possible performance.

With onboard decoding for the newest lossless audio codecs from Dolby and DTS the T 587 will provide a complete HD audio and video solution to thousands of NAD T 175, T 785 and T 775 AV Receiver owners. This cost effective upgrade, when combined with the current generation of 1080p displays creates a state-of-the-art Home Theatre.
