FEATURES

The

DCD-1520

Compact

Disc

Player

incorporates

DENON’s

Super

Linear

Converter

which

prevents

deterioration

of

sound

quality

in

PCM

playback

systems.

This

assures

accurate

reproduction

of

the

digital

signals

recorded

on

compact

discs

no

matter

whether

they

are

pure

studio

recordings

or

“live”

performance

recordings.

All

parts

making

up

this

CD

player

have

selected

with

the

greatest

care

in

order

to

produce

high

quality

realistic

playback

of

the

full

musical

content

on

compact

discs.

(1)

Real

20-bit

Double

Super

Linear

Converter

The

use

of

Denon’s

unique

system

and

D/A

converters

with

excellent

resolution

to

prevent

zero

cross

distortion,

the

main

cause

of

reduced

sound

quality

in

the

PCM

playback

system,

makes

for

sound

field

reproduction

with

rich

musical

expression.

(2)

High

Digital

Filter

The

DCD-1520

uses

independent

real

20-bit

D/A

converters

for

the

left

and

right

channels

and

an

8x

oversampling

high

precision

digital

filter

and

offer

clear,

crisp

sound.

includes

an

optical

output,

thereby

improving

sound

quality

and

eliminating

noise

interference.
