Audio Versatility
The SCDCE595 Super Audio CD player can play single layer, two channel, and multi-channel Super Audio CDs that are playable only on an SACD player. This advanced audio format comes directly from Direct Stream Digital (DSD) recording technology. DSD's recording and playback methods result in a frequency response of over 100kHz and a dynamic range over 120dB across the audible frequency range. Additionally, the sampling frequency is 64 times greater than conventional CDs and creates wider frequency and dynamic ranges. This means the resolution of the music more closely follows the original wave form of the music for a reproduction that is extremely accurate and much more like the original source than standard CDs. But, this unit doesn't only play SACDs. Due to its Dual Laser Optical Pickup, it also plays standard music CDs, CD-Rs and CD-RWs so you'll have lots of flexibility with your playlist.Audio Superiority
Audio Superiority
In addition to exceptional sound quality through the DSD system, the SACD format can accommodate more than four times the information of the current CD format. With this extra capacity, a standard Super Audio CD will provide space for 2-channel stereo data, as well as an area for up to 6-track multi-channel data, storage capacity for text and images, disc variations, copyright protection and much more. SACD multi-channel sound can contain as many as six separate channels, each captured on disc at the full DSD bit rate with the full DSD sound quality. Some producers will use the added channels to faithfully reproduce the precise acoustic signature of the performance space. Others will realize new creative possibilities, immersing the listener in a 360 degree field of sound. Multi-channel SACD takes its place beside stereo SACD as another compelling way to enjoy music.
Audio Simplicity
To make things easy for you, this SACD unit automatically recognizes the type of disc you insert and it routes the audio signal to one of the two sets of analog audio outputs. There's a 2-channel SACD, which has only 2-channels of information. When playing a 2-channel SACD disc, the player automatically sets itself to a 2-channel playback, and the music output comes only from the left and right front channels. Or, if you put in a 3-6 multi-channel disc the player automatically changes its playback format, and audio is directed through the 5.1-channel analog outputs. If however, you play a 2-channel and Multi-channel disc that has both types of audio information, you can choose the playback format-even by remote.
Audio Continuity
With Sony's 5-disc, multi-channel Super Audio CD (SACD)/CD player you can listen to literally hours of superior, continuous music with amazing detail and clarity. The preprogrammed remote control makes it convenient for you to manage your audio enjoyment, or you can use the Jog Dial to quickly find your favorite songs. The CD text display conveniently shows you what's playing at a glance. This unit is an easy addition to any home theater system, and a must have component for the real audiophile. It'll seamlessly join your other components as the multi-channel analog audio outputs effortlessly hooks up to compatible audio/video receivers (and even multi-channel amplifiers), while the Optical digital-audio output will let you connect with CD and mini-disc recorders. And, the Speaker Management System will make sure it all has optimal sound by letting you set the most appropriate output levels for your system.
