DVD CHARACTERISTICS

The DVD player is your ticket to a home cinema. Every single technical detail in this technology is better than in
any other previous AV equipment. This brand new digital technology compresses the A/V effect from the cinema
down on a disc with a diameter of 12 cm, i.e. the size of a CD. Particularly by means of Dolby Digital and DTS, it
is possible to achieve excellent digital surround sound. The DVD player can also be used with the existing CDs,
CD-Rs and CD-RWs (however, it cannot be used with all CD-RW discs).
