Sony Sony DVPCX985V 400 Disc DVD Changer

DVP-CX985V (Black/White)

The DVPCX985V is the perfect addition to any Home Theatre system. You can store your entire DVD library in this changer, as well as your CD's and SACD's. The 480P Progressive video output lets you get the most out of DVD video technology when connected to a high-definition monitor.

Progressive Scan and Disc Compatibility

The new generation of "high scanning" televisions can display twice as much on-screen resolution as their predecessors. This is a DVD player that takes advantage of that performance. If you have a high definition TV, you can take full advantage of the progressive scan 480P output that delivers beautiful, film-like images to HD capable TVs, projectors and monitors. But professionally produced DVD movies aren't all you'll enjoy with this dynamic player. This 400-disc changer also accepts DVD-RW/-R (Video Mode) discs and DVD+RW/+R, so you'll be ready when the relatives start sending you their homemade DVD movies from the family reunion. When your eyes have had enough, you can listen to your CD-R/RW discs, including those burned with your favorite MP3 files. For those audiofiles, it is also capable of playing the SACD format. So, step up to modern high-quality entertainment with this 400 Disc DVD changer.

A Conversion Experience & Overcoming Limitations

You'll be singing the praises of Sony's dedicated 12-bit, 108MHz D/A (digital/analog) converter the first time you watch a movie on this amazing DVD player. The digital to analog converter produces several times the fine gradations in the luminance (Y) channel and twice the fine gradations in each of the color channels. So, you get beautiful rendition of colors and gray scale from the deepest black to the brightest highlights. Sony DVD players have a solid reputation for their ability to play discs that are warped, dusty or otherwise less than perfect. Now, with the Precision Drive 2 system, Sony players can track even better. The system uses dynamic tilt compensation to give you the best performance from every disc you play. This improved mechanism is simpler, faster and able to correct for an even wider range of disc imperfections.

Block Noise Reduction

One characteristic limitation of DVD's MPEG compression system is "block noise". This is the tendency of delicately shaded picture areas to be rendered as solid rectangles of color. Instead of a continuous contour of color fading softly into shadow on the cheek of an actress, you see subtle blocks of approximately correct color. Sony controls the problem on the vertical axis with Block Noise Reduction. Because the player knows where the block borders are, it identifies and suppresses block noise. The result is a smoother, more delicately shaded and more lifelike image. Other image enhancing circuitry includes Digital Video Equalization that provides factory preset settings that you can use to digitally adjust your DVD player for optimum video quality.

Become a Disc Explorer

This unit will read all the disc information for you and loads it into memory. Once loaded into memory it reads disc type, titles, and other text info and displays it on the TV screen. When a disc is loaded into this dvd player you will be able to sort it into one of seven folders using the File Mode functions. For even more control it has an Edit Mode and Sort mode which give you even more flexibility with how you access and store your discs.

We Have You Virtually Surrounded

If you don't have surround speakers, this DVD changer offers TV Virtual Surround modes that can generate convincing surround sound effects. You can choose from several different modes that match your program material and situation. These sound modes are all optimized for use with your television's built-in speakers so there's no reason to put off picking up a DVD player any longer.
