3US Features About the Super Audio CD - Super Audio CD is a new high-quality audiodisc standard where music is recorded in the DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format (conventional CDs are recorded in the PCM format). The DSD format, using a sampling frequency 64 times higher than that of a conventional CD, and with 1-bit quantization, achieves both a wide frequency range and a wide dynamic range across the audible frequency range, and so provides music reproduction extremely faithful to the original sound. - The Super Audio CD has two types; a 2 channel stereo disc and a Multi-channel disc which holds up to 6 independent channels. The multi-channel characteristic of the Super Audio CD features a speaker allocation system basically similar to the 5.1 channel output of current AV systems. Features of the player This player is designed to play back 2-channel and multi-channel Super Audio CDs, and conventional CDs, and provides the following features: - Mounted with a Discrete Dual Laser OpticalPickup, capable of reading a Super Audio CD or conventional CD depending on the exclusive wavelength. - Quicker track access performance enabled by an advanced servo mechanism. - A Multi-Channel Management function that allows you to adjust the multi-channel playback environment according to the allocation and size of your speakers. - A Super Audio D/A Converter and Direct Digital Sync System, which allows higher- quality sound reproduction. Others - A Super Audio CD can mark up to 255 tracknumbers. This feature applies to SCD- XE670. - The supplied remote is capable of controlling both the SCD-XE670 and a conventional Sony CD player.
