Marantz DV9500 150,000yen(July, 2004 release)

The universal player which supplied the latest imaging technique and the audio technology of the Marantz, and was developed.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) which is an interface for digital-audio visual equipments is carried. The HDMI termination can transmit simultaneously digital-audio signals, such as a non-compressing digital image, Dolby digital, digital termination service, and linear PCM.
In combination with digital image equipments, such as a projector carrying this termination, a full digital transmission and a full digital process are possible from an entry point to an outlet.

The 10-bit digital treatment circuitry is carried in an I/P translation and scaling part of a graphic processing circuitry. It is possible by carrying the newest high-order-accuracy scaler of 10 bits to carry out a up convert and to output the picture signal of 480P to higher definition 720P and signal of 1080i via a HDMI termination.
Moreover, the progressive treatment has been performed by one 4 times the precision of this from a general 8-bit treatment by performing a 10-bit digital treatment also in a progressive treatment. Furthermore, the newly developed algorithm has realized the shaggy (noise of the stairstepping cut on a slanting line) reduction, and the sharp pictorial image.
Moreover, since image adjustment is performed in an I/P translation part, an image quality coordination as well as analog output is possible also for a digital output.

216MHz/14bit video-system encoder is carried in the video-system encoder. In order to perform 8 times as much oversampling to 16 times and a progressive signal to an interlace signal, a highly precise D-A conversion becomes possible, and reappearance of the more natural outline is enabled.
Moreover, compared with a 12-bit thing, color reproduction nature and brightness tone reproduction are improving by forming 14bit. Moreover, by shifting a video-system noise component to an unnecessary band, and an analog filter's removing a noise effectively, and controlling a signal failure and a cuff noise with a NSV (Noise Shaped Video) technology, it is total and video-system S/N is improved.

A full-scale image quality coordination of DNR/CNR / detail / brightness / gamma / chroma deray which carries the video-system ajustment functionality and can perform a fine coordination according to a projector or a display device is possible.

High-definition output circuits, such as high-bandwidth video-system amplifier and discrete filter loading, are adopted.

All the substrates only for a 6ch equal quality audio output of HDAM loading are carried.
In order to interrupt the influence from a video circuit, it was made to become independent of a video-system substrate, and the whole back surface of a substrate is shielded. Moreover, high-quality sound-ization is attained by adhering also to a substrate product line or a component-partses placement.

It carries a total of three pieces at a time for one Cirrus-Logic "DAC Convergence Sublayer4398" in DAC for front L/Rch, surround L/Rch, and center ch& subWoofers, respectively.
Moreover, DAC which became independent to headphone is prepared.

The newly developed module only for DVD/Super Audio CD is adopted.
What was developed by SA8400 serves as the base, this mechanism used the circuitry as an one-sheet substrate, and the module with little noise radiation is realized by adopting the four-layers substrate of glass epoxy.
Moreover, there is the vibration proof effect in a tray part, and the black coating with little influence by the irregular reflection of laser is given to it.

In addition to the double layered chassis adopted from the former, the chassis intensity of the main chassis top cover is raised.

The video-system-off mode where all the video circuits after an I/P translation can turn OFF from a power supply system/control system is carried.

The audio circuitry exclusive transformer is carried.

The null impedance copper plate is adopted.

brass shaving appearance is carried out and the gilding analog output terminal is carried.

digital termination service96/24 decoder which enabled the 5.1ch play of 96kHz/24 bit is carried.

Dolby Headphone which serves as the first in the world as a simple substance DVD player is carried.

When the Lip Sync functionality is carried and it connects with plasma display, a projector, etc., a maximum of 200 msec can rectify gap of the time of the image generated by the processing time of a video chain and voice by 10msec unit.

The sound mode functionality is carried and the play area of Super Audio CD which had to project and change menu panel to the display device can be direct chosen with remote control in the conventional model.

In addition to a DVD-Video or a DVD-Audio, the delay time and the bus management functionality which can be adjusted also at the time of a SACD play are carried.

The startup window on which the pictorial image of a Joint-Photographic-Expert-Group synopsis is displayed at the time of the power source ON can be used.

The Marantz original design is adopted as graphical user interface which performs initial setting etc.

The RS-232 control termination corresponding to the custom install which uses controllers, such as CRESTRON, is carried.

A SACD multichannel, a DVD-Audio/video system, a Video CD, SVCD, an audiodisk / CD-Recordable/CD-RW, MP3, and Joint Photographic Expert Group are supported.

Dolby digital / digital-termination-service decoder is built in.

The DVD-RW disk (video mode) play is supported.

The PAL/NTSC translation functionality is carried.

The PAL progressive play functionality is carried.

D2 image output-terminal is carried.
