Thank
you
for
purchasing
this
Cambridge
Audio
Azur
range
DVD
player.
We
hope
that
you
enjoy
many
years
of
pleasure
from
it.
The new 540D V2 was designed from the ground up for the Azur range
based on a new and highly evolved DVD chipset which includes the
ability to reproduce a progressive scan image in both PAL and NTSC
formats via either analog component video or the new digital HDMI
output. Great care has been taken with both the digital and analog video
circuitry to achieve the best possible video performance whichever
connection you use. The HDMI output is also capable of up-scaling to
720p or 1080i video formats for use with HD TV sets.
A newly developed proprietary Phase Locked Loop (PLL) system
generates very low jitter audio clocks locked to the master video clock
fed to the MPEG decoder. This PLL scheme and our normal attention to
the DAC and anti-alias filtering circuits ensure the 540D V2 has audio
performance equivalent to a dedicated CD player, a rare thing in a DVD
player.
The jitter at the SPDIF digital output is also very low for best possible
performance when using this connection with an AV receiver for
surround-sound use.
Your 540D V2 can only be as good as the system it is connected to.
Please do not compromise on your partnering equipment. Naturally we
particularly recommend equipment from the Cambridge Audio Azur
range, which have been designed to the same exacting standards as
this product. Your dealer can also supply excellent quality Cambridge
Audio interconnects to ensure your system realises its full potential.
Thank you for taking the time to read this manual, we do recommend
you keep it for future reference.
Matthew Bramble,
Cambridge Audio Technical Director
and the DVD player design team.
