UK - DMi D&M Installation has introduced a new entry level DVD player from Denon Professional. The Denon DN-V110 replaces the DN-V100 and integrates a raft of features derived from Denon's hi-fi press award winning DVD-1740 consumer player within a professional rackmount model; all designed to provide rich, cinema like replay on today's large scale high definition flat screen displays, says the company.

New to the DN-V110 is the 108MHz/12-bit video DAC with full 1080p video upscaling, providing for full HD specification output of standard definition DVD signals, with a resultant significant increase in picture quality when connected to HD Ready and Full HD displays. Upscaling is performed to 1080p, 1080i or 720p, as determined by the specification of the connected display.

To match the picture quality, a 192kHz/24-bit Burr Brown audio DAC provides high resolution audio decoding; additionally, coaxial (S/PDIF) and optical digital audio outputs enable decoding of surround sound audio formats when connected to an AVR with the relevant Dolby and DTS circuitry. High quality CD playback - whether for PCM, MP3 or AAC encoded audio - is also provided by the high spec digital / analogue audio circuitry.
