audiophile - quality sound
The performance of an ultra-high-end
CD player — in a home theater component.
Even an incredible picture cannot convey the emotion of movies and
music unless the audio performance is equally outstanding. That's
why the audio section of the BDP-09FD employs the same basic
circuit topology found in some of the most expensive CD players.
Each of the BDP-09FD's 7.1 channels is equipped with its own
digital-to-analog converter operating in dual-mode, and channel
levels may be calibrated on screen with 0.5-dB precision.
A dedicated anal og audio power supply pr e vents noise con -
tamination, while a toroidal transformer minimizes stray magnetic
energy. A nd only custom-made precision capacitors match the
tight tol erances specified by Pioneer's engineers.
An exceptionally rigid chassis and center-mounted drive mech-
anism minimiz e t he jit t er t hat degrade s digit al audio signal s.
W hen used with a Pioneer audio / video receiver equipped with our
Precision Quar tz Lock System, the BDP - 09F D reduces jitter
f or the c l e an e s t p o s s ibl e s o u n d.
And, the BDP -09F D decodes major surround-sound formats
bringing you closer—bit for bit—to the sound heard in the studio.
These advanced features produce sound quality that equal s or
exceeds that of the finest audiophile CD players previously available—
and rises far above that of typical home theater audio components.
