HDMI ™ (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
Providing the Ultimate A/V Connection
You’ll find HDMI on all recently released Onkyo players.
HDMI will output uncompressed video signals, along with
every audio format carried by a player. Video can be passed directly
to an HDMI-enabled HDTV, while audio—including Dolby Digital
and DTS signals—can be passed to your AV receiver. Also,
this cable can carry DVD signals for upconversion to 720p,
1080i, or 1080p. Since HDMI carries all channels of video and audio, only one
cable is needed to plug into the HDMI-enabled source and only one into the
display device. This means no unsightly cable mess and a straightforward
connection process.
Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry (VLSC ™ )
(DV-SP1000E, DV-SP504E)
Unlike what you’ll find elsewhere, Onkyo’s VLSC
significantly reduces pulse noise from digital
signals. If you think of your player as the first link in your home entertainment
chain, it makes sense to ensure that the signal is delivered in all its purity. By
doing so, you’ll add more depth and clarity to all your music sources
(including digital music files) and movie soundtracks.
Multi-Format Playback Capability *
Broadening your
entertainment
options beyond
DVD videos and PCM audio CDs, our players enable playback of a range of
formats. With expanded content and audiophile quality, DVD-Audio offers
stereo sound with data-loss-free 192 kHz/24-bit reproduction—far superior to
a normal PCM CD. It also provides six discrete channels of 96 kHz/24-bit
multichannel audio, for an engaging musical experience. Super Audio CD
delivers a similar blend of stereo and surround music options. Based on a
digital audio technology called Digital Stream Data (DSD), it employs a
sampling rate 64 times faster than PCM CD. On a different level, MP3- and
WMA-encoded music discs can be played back with a fuller sound, and with
energy lacking on PCs and portable music devices. Also, you can easily transfer
DivX
® -encoded video files from your computer to your home theater.
Likewise, your JPEG/HD JPEG/Picture CDs look stunning when played back on
a large viewing screen.
*Capability depends on specific model.
Dual Direct Digital Path and Direct Digital Path
(DV-SP1000E, DV-SP504E)
Unlike other DVD players that use inexpensive PC
board copper traces to transfer the digital audio
signal, Onkyo players employ high-purity, heavy-
gauge, shielded cables to directly output digital or
PCM bitstreams straight from the disc to the back
panel. This way, the cable protects the audio signal
against potential noise from nearby microprocessors
and power supplies. So if you use the optical or
coaxial digital output to send multichannel or stereo
sources to your compatible receiver, you’re starting off with the cleanest
possible signal.
Quality Video DACs Ensure Crystal-Clear Images
A crucial factor in achieving clear, pristine digital video playback is the video
digital-to-analogue converter in your DVD player. The DV-SP1000E’s Analog
Devices 216 MHz/14-bit video DAC ensures an artifact-free picture.
Furthermore, 4x oversampling and Noise Shaped Video (NSV
® ) dramatically
reduce noise interference to the video signal. The DV-SP504E has an onboard
108 MHz/14-bit video DAC and the DV-SP404E has a 108 MHz/12-bit video
DAC to support the transfer of progressive scan images.
192 kHz/24-Bit Audio DACs Contribute to
Superior Audio
(DV-SP1000E, DV-SP504E)
Performing at a full 192 kHz/24-bit level of
resolution, these digital-to-analog audio converters
deliver audio performance that’s ideal for today’s
formats. They boast a higher dynamic range than
standard digital-to-analog converters, and are
virtually resistant to clock jitter—which means you’ll
enjoy the best performance possible.
