Denon DVD-A1UD Report
Just audited it somewhere yesterday night (Sorry, I need to keep secret at this moment)With the inclusion of Denon Link 4th Edition with Clock Control (only AVC-A1HD and AVP-A1HD supports Denon Link 4th Edition), the soundstage is over 100% increase (Audited BD including Celine Dion BD, SpiderMan 3, Ip-Man, Planet Earth, Choi Kam)
The difference on separating 2 HDMI (Audio and Video) is not so big compare with Denon Link as Clock Control.
For audio part, since it embedded the main technology of Denon's top CD Player - DCD-SX (with 32 bit, 192k), the sound is very attractive. With true-balance output, I can say that it can KO my Meridian G08 (I also brought my G08 to Denon for comparison) (G08 is just 24 bit, 192k). Compared with Denon SA-1, DVD-A1UD is about 10% - 20% better!!!!!
We also have the comparison with Pioneer 09-FD. Without turning on the Denon Link 4th, the sound is 09-FD wins a little bit. But after turning on the Denon Link 4th, 09-FD......... Byebye........ Lost for 9 streets at least.....
For the picture quality, compared with 2500, 3800, 09-FD and A1UD, the result is
A1UD -> 09-FD -> 3800 -> 2500
In conclusion, for the end-user with AVC-A1HD or AVP-A1HD, having DVD-A1UD is a MUST! But for the user who does not have Denon's amp, keep your current BD player is not a bad choice.
Report Pencil. Thanks for the report as you detail some of the comparison of which figures and numbers won't tell. At such price range, owner of A1UD definitely deserve a treat of this outstanding performance. I suspect even the price range did fall within the ~$20000 , the next issue would be as a non-AVC-A1HD nor AVP-A1HD's owner, is this worth the price by compromising the "non-functional" of Denon 4th-Link...? using 09-FD + 3800 ,
must buy A1UD{:6_138:} law兄,等你開箱.
響美國訂? thanks for the report, will try later...{:6_238:} For the crazy price tag they're asking, A1UD better performs. {:6_168:}
