JVC XV-FA902SL 7-Disc DVD Player Silver

.com At less than 5 inches tall, this DVD-Audio-equipped seven-disc DVD/CD player is as sleek as it is powerful. The carousel-style changer offers play exchange (swap up to six discs while one plays), high-resolution DVD-Audio capability with JVC's custom 1-bit P.E.M.

DVD-Audio offers super high-fidelity stereo and six-channel sound at 192k Hz/24-bit resolution and unique bonus materials not available on regular audio CDs. As an antipiracy measure, the XV-FA902SL performs its own decoding of DVD-Audio signals, passing high-resolution analog , not digital, audio to your surround receiver. This means you'll need an audio/video receiver with multichannel analog-audio inputs. The unit also decodes standard Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround sound through those same analog outputs, while digital-audio outputs (one each coaxial and optical) provide the option of direct digital connection to a receiver. For stereo-only setups, 3D-Phonic virtual surround sound simulates surround through two speakers (even the stereo speakers on your TV). JVC's Digital Direct Progressive Scan Output, quantified as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating

Review snippets: Item is basically what I expected it seems to work well with one exception the disc select function of the remote does not work. This was one of the reasons I purchased this unit so I wouldn't have to get / It is a useless paperweight. It was supposed to include the remote control but it came with a generic six-in-one remote. That might work if I knew how to operate the remote but for setting up the system it is
