Direct Mechanical Ground Construction, embodying concepts
for thorough vibration resistance
The power transformer, itself a source of vibration, has been placed near the
ground and immediately above the insulators to allow direct release to the ground
and thoroughly prevent the propagation of unwanted vibration or noise.
- Hybrid construction (using heterogenous materials) with dual-layer top cover
and triple-layer bottom cover suppresses vibration and resonance.
- B.M.C. side panels in high-specific-gravity and high-density hybrid construction
suppress vibration and resonance.
- Cast-iron insulators absorb vibration and release it to the ground.
Denon’s original Advanced S.V.H. Mechanism, newly developed for low
specific gravity, vibration resistance, quiet operation, and high precision
Denon disc drive mechanisms in the DVD-A1XV, DVD-3800BD and other digital
disc players have received high acclaim. For the DVD-A1UD flagship, Denon devel-
oped the Advanced S.V.H. Mechanism to achieve improved vibration resistance and
quieter operation. The quiet disc loading mechanism ensures the stability demand-
ed by this top-of-the-line model. Furthermore, by positioning the disc mechanism at
a low location, it has become possible to achieve a low centre of gravity for the disc
mechanism and a construction highly resistant to internal vibration caused by disc
rotation and external vibration.

7-block Structure, to thoroughly prevent mutual interference caused
by electrical and magnetic factors
The 7 blocks made up of the power unit for analog circuits, the power unit for
digital circuits, the server section, the digital signal processing section, the video
section, the 2-channel audio section, and the multi-channel audio section have
been separated to prevent mutual interference from electrical and magnetic fac-
tors. This superb separate structure ensures high picture and sound quality.
Dynamic Discrete Surround Circuit-HD, achieving high-quality sound
The D.D.S.C. is a Denon proprietary circuit configuration that features a dis-
crete arrangement of signal processing circuits for each block, required for audio
playback, to realize Denon’s ideal for audio components of faithfully reproducing
the content producer’s original intentions. The best possible high-grade dedicated
circuitry has been used for each block to ensure optimum performance. With the
advent of Blu-ray, the volume of information is dramatically greater than that of DVD,
delivering improvements in quality for both video images and sound. The DDSC-HD
is configured of a high-bit audio decoder section, a bus management section, the
Advanced AL32 Processing Multi Channel section, and an analog audio section with
a 192-kHz, 32-bit D/A converter to reproduce high-quality sound and bring out the
superior quality of Blu-ray sound to the maximum extent.
