DESCRIPTION

VERSATILE DVD PLAYER Yamaha's new DVD player handles DVD+RW/+R, CD-R/RW and VCD Disc Playback. Many people are using their computers or digital recorders to make their own CD-R/RW discs and the new DV-S5550 is capable of playing these discs. The DV-S5550 expands your listening possibilities to include MP3 tracks also. The CD-R/RW disc can hold about 12 hours of MP3 music, so this is a great advantage.

HIGH QUALITY REPRODUCTION DVD discs hold huge amounts of digital information, allowing them to provide video and audio with a degree of clarity unlike anything you've ever experienced before. The DV-S5550 is able to read this data and transmit it to the other system components with no loss of quality. The DV-S5550 accomplishes this with a wide range of sophisticated circuitry, including a 10-bit video D/A converter and a 96kHz, 24-bit audio D/A converter. In addition, Yamaha's new Chroma Upsampling Error circuit greatly reduces the jagged/streaky effect on the edges of brightly colored objects, which is common to almost all DVD players.

DUAL LASER OPTICAL PICKUP The high performance laser pick-up focuses independently to provide top-quality Video CD, Audio CD, and DVD performance.
