What is stereo?




There are now two system of high fidelity, monophonic (monaural) and stereophonic. Monophonic is a system that starts from one microphone and is fed through a single high fidelity set. Stereophonic is a double system. Two separate microphones are placed at different sides of the orchestra and two different systems are used to keep the two signals or channels separated. Two separate speakers are used, placed on different sides of you room. Stereo is much like 3-D photography, two slightly different sound reach your ears giving you a new dimension in sound.

Denon DCD-2560 CD player

It's not just the technology; it's the application of the technology.

Denon's "Design Integrity" philosophy has always held that the way a technology is employed is as important as the technology itself.

To test this premise, Denon digital audio and studio recording engineers compare their own vast library of digital master tapes with the Compact Discs releases of the same material. This on-going listening and measurement research reveals that at present the finest CD quality can be obtained by the meticulous application of 20-bit digital-to-analog conversion.

Case in point; The DCD-2560 employs four separate DACs utilizing Denon's Lambda System Super Linear Converter technology to eliminate the aero-cross distortion and non-linearity that plagues conventional CD players, especially at low signal levels. Each Denon Super Linear Converter is factory hand-tuned for maximum resolution. In addition, Denon's unique half-sample interpolation system produces an effective 16x over-sampling rate to eliminate phase shift for a more accurate sound stage with true three-dimensional imaging.

20-bit SLC's enable Denon to offer Variable Pitch, which lets you compress recordings, tune your CD player to musical instruments, adjust tempo for dancing, create perfect segues while mixing, etc. Peak Search finds the point in a disc with the highest level to set recording levels most accurately. Auto Space inserts four second pauses between tracks to help locate selections. A Digital Fader fades recordings in and out while dubbing. Time Edit allows you to input the tape length you are using. Pick enhances this function by letting you rearrange the order of tracks for the best fit on the tape. Link extends the process over 2 CDs for longer tape lengths.

The critically-acclaimed Denon DCD-2560. a reaffirmation of one of life's oldest adages. It's not only whether you win the technology race, but also how you play the game.
