For videophiles, equipment reviewers and consumer electronics professionals, the launch of a new, top-of-the-line Sony DVD player is always an occasion. In 1997, Sony’s original DVP-S7000 was acclaimed as the “Reference Standard.” In 1998, the second-generation DVP-S7700 took DVD playback to a new level of accuracy. Now the Sony DVP- S9000ES DVD-Video/CD/SACD player redefines the category. The player is a comprehensive redesign that represents three significant firsts:

The world’s first DVD player with 525P outputs based on Fast and Pure Cinema Detection.

The world’s first DVD-Video player to incorporate true

Super Audio Compact Disc playback.

The first DVD player to join Sony’s ES Series,

the Elevated Standard in audio reproduction and now video reproduction.

In addition, the player represents significant refinements in MPEG image processing, optical transport, construction and craftsmanship.

This booklet serves as an introduction to the technology of the DVP-S9000ES, presenting advances that promise to shape the development of DVD players for years to come.
