Upgrade to Audiophile Sound with the Denon DCD-1700NE

As CD sales reportedly rebound—marked by the first increase in shipments in 17 years according to the Recording Industry Association of America—Denon has launched the DCD-1700NE, a CD and SACD player catering to audiophiles seeking high-resolution audio experiences. The DCD-1700NE is compatible with various disc formats, including SACDs and DVD-R/RWs, and supports playback of high-resolution audio files up to 192kHz/24-bit PCM and 5.6MHz DSD. To minimize vibration and optimize audio quality, Denon has incorporated Advanced AL32 Processing Plus and its proprietary S.V.H disc drive into the player’s design. The DCD-1700NE is available now for $1499 and is recommended for pairing with Denon’s PMA-1700NE amplifier for optimal performance.
