FEATURES The DCM-560 and DCM-460 are CD players equipped with DENON's unique A.S.L.0 (Advanced Super Linear Converter) for eliminating sound quality deterioration in the PCM playback system in order to faithfully recreate the sound field of live halls or studios where compact discs are recorded. These models use carefully selected parts to provide high performance and sound field recreation with rich musical expression. (1) Ultimate signal reproduction using a newly developed ALPHA processor 1. High speed interpolation by the newly developed ALPHA processor recreates the data below the LSB (least significant bit) lost upon recording to provide smooth waveform reproduction. 2. The original signals, including such unusual waveforms as impulse response, can also be reproduced with no ringing. 3. The effects of ALPHA processing are particularly noticeable at low levels, such as when music.gently fades out or gradually emerges from total silence. (2) Advanced Super Linear Converter The use of DENON's unique system for preventing zero cross distortion, the main cause of deterioration of the sound quality in the PCM playback system, provides for sound field recreation with rich musical expression. (3) High performance digital filter The DCM-560/460 uses high precision 20-bit 8-times oversampling digital filters. (4) Programming of up to 20 tracks All of the tracks on a CD can be programmed to play in any order. Programming in units of discs (all tracks on a disc) is also possible. (5) Newly developed carousel-type changer mechanism included This mechanism can house five discs, and while one disc is playing the remaining four discs can be changed. In addition, the carousel can be rotated either clockwise or counterclockwise, so searching between discs is fast. (6) Wireless Remote Control Accessory In addition to general operations such as Play, Stop and Pause, this remote control unit enables direct selection, direct programming, and other functions. Use of the remote control unit adds greatly to the operating ease of the DCM-560/460, enhancing its outstanding features. (7) Favorite Track File (F.T. FILE) This function stores your favorite tracks for each of the discs. Using a deletion method, this function deletes up to 6 tracks on 1 disc, providing storage for up to 100 discs. Storage is retained even after the power is switched off. (8) Synchronized Recording Function Connect the SYNCHRO jack with a DENON cassette deck which is equipped with a SYNCHRO jack, then make a synchronized recording. CAUTIONS DURING USE • This compact disc player is capable of playing • 0 DO discs which have the mark at right. During track selection, during search and COMPACT when the player sustains a strong impact, the disc's rotational speed changes greatly, causing a small noise to be emitted. This is not a DIGITAL AUDIO malfunction of the player. • If the CD player is operated while an FM or AM broadcast is being received, there may be noise in the FM or AM reception. Please switch the power to the CD player off at such times. • The DCM-560/460 has a broad dynamic range. Please exercise caution when turning up the volume on the amplifier in cases when the playback volume is low. If the volume is turned up too high, it could damage the speakers. • Do not use any discs but exclusive audio discs with this CD player. • Placing this player or its connection cords near a TV or other audio device could cause a humming sound to be emitted. If this occurs, relocate the player or reroute the connection cords. • Be sure to remove the disc from the player before moving it. The disc could be damaged if left in the player while it is being moved. • Do not place any object in the tray in the position where the disc is loaded, or open and close the tray with anything inside. Foreign objects in the tray could damage the play mechanism. • Do not move the player from a cold place to a warm place suddenly. If the player is cold when brought into a warm room, condensation could form, preventing proper operation of the player. If condensation does form on the player when it is brought into a warm room, wait at least 30 minutes before use. 5
