USA - Denon Professional has released its new DN-C620 CD Player. Housed in a compact 1-rackspace enclosure, the DN-C620 offers contractors and system integrators a versatile CD player at "an extremely cost-effective price point", says the company.

The DN-C620 is compatible with standard audio data file formats including CDDA (.cda) and MPEG-1/2 Layer III (.mp3), allowing for up to 20 hours of MP3 or similar audio playback from a single CD, CD-R or CD-RW, making it suited to serve as a continuous audio playback device for houses of worship, health clubs, restaurants, and various broadcast applications.

The DN-C620 features intuitive front panel control, which allows customisable programme playlists and output of ID3 or CD-TEXT title, artist, and album information via RS-232C. Additionally, standard 25-pin Contact Closure (GPIO) and 9-pin RS-232C Control connections are included. The RS-232C remote capability provides added flexibility and allows the DN-C620 to be controlled from third party manufacturers like AMX and Crestron.
