Using the very latest Zoran Vaddis 888S core processor, Anchor Bay’s upscaling technology and Arcam’s broadcast quality circuitry, the picture from the DV137 is quite simply stunning. Zoran’s motion adaptive de-interlacing techniques mean pictures are pure, clean and startlingly detailed. The internal video scaling engine allows the DV137 to supply high resolution pictures direct to the screen using its HDMI output. In many cases this means bypassing the low cost scaling chips fitted inside most of today’s digital video displays. The DV137’s resolution options even include 768p for direct input to any of the popular 1366x 768 pixel constructions that choose to implement this format.
To complement the superior video circuitry, Arcam’s development team has drawn on its 30 years of audiophile design experience, resulting in exemplary audio performance no matter what type of disc is playing or output used. Ultra high precision clocking, Wolfson 8740 DAC’s and low noise power supplies ensure CD playback is of true audiophile standard and will captivate all who love music. For dual layer discs, extended buffer memory means no pause during the layer change of DVDs. The DVD-Audio decoding also benefits from the DV137’s world-class design. In addition, for the first time from Arcam, SACD discs benefit from full resolution playback giving the DV137 a truly universal appeal.
A new stylish remote handset is included (the CR515) and, for more complex control systems, a full duplex RS232 interface is fitted. A full suite of RC5 remote control codes gives discrete control of toggle commands such as on/off. A separate set of “Always On” stereo audio plus composite and RGB SCART video outputs feed a constant signal for distribution to other zones no matter what other outputs are doing.
The DV135 was designed and manufactured in the UK and was manuafcatured in black or silver
