Denon DV1910 DVD player

摘要

There's been some mild controversy over Denon not supporting either SACD or DVD-A in this budget player although, as with most stormy teacups, this is to miss the point completely. You see, the £230 DVD-1910 is not a multichannel audio player of any description - even 5.1-channel Dolby encoded discs are downmixed to a two-channel, analogue output. Fortunately, it offers both coaxial and optical digital outputs that support Dolby and DTS bit-streams. And, frankly, it's through these that the DVD-1910 should be married to a partnering AV receiver. However, before you dismiss this budget baby as just another run-of-the-mill, plain vanilla DVD player you should take a look at the rear panel. Yep, that's an HDCP-compliant DVI digital video output, making the DVD-1910 just about the cheapest digital audio/video DVD transport on the market!
