DESC: On the back of its award-winning predecessors, the DV-SP506 universal DVD/CD player stands out as a versatile player well-positioned for the emergence of high-definition entertainment. It's the inclusion of the HDMI interface that makes the DV-SP506 a superb choice for delivering movies, high-resolution music, and more recent formats like HD JPEG (for megapixel images with enhanced resolution). Onkyo technology comes into play with Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry (VLSC) and Direct Digital Path to protect audio signals from the single most destructive elements to quality movies and music—pulse noise and noise emanating from a player's internal components.
