The DCD-2500NE from Denon focuses on two main requirements firstly ultra high precision in reading discs & secondly supplying high quality audio signals to the amp. To achieve this the signal paths are as short as possible & the whole circuitry is minimized. 2500NE has been developed by both veteran engineers & talented young engineers who have inherited the Denon technologies & expertise that have been cultivated over many decades. The engineers redesigned the disc drive mechanism brackets & the chassis to eliminate vibration the great enemy of disc players & achieve ultra-vibration-resistant performance. The information on the disc is now read with impeccable accuracy & a clean high-grade signal is supplied to the DCD-2500 N Es Advanced AL32 Processing Plus circuitry. Besides CD & Super Audio CD playback the DCD features playback of audio recordings up to PCM192/24 or DSD5.6 recorded on a DVD R/RW for full flexibility & extended access to high resolution audio.
