Philips has advanced Super Audio CD sound quality to an even higher reference level with the DVD963SA SACD/DVD player. At the same time this model offers the outstanding home cinema video quality from DVD Video discs, and a higher sampling rate for better CD sound quality. This outstanding and affordably priced unit meets the highest demands of consumers who want a single, convenient player that gives them the unmatched audio fidelity of the Super Audio CD format, together with unsurpassed video playback from DVD Video discs. The Philips' DVD 963SA incorporates a range of significant improvements including Philips' state-of-the-art progressive scan technology, Crystal Clear Pro, the latest 108 MHz video processing, and a sophisticated Motion Correction System using the DCDi chip by Faroudja. This constantly optimizes the picture and corrects for artifacts, resulting in razor-sharp picture quality. Next to these new features, the performance of the DVD 963SA also benefits from further improvements in the components used. The latest digital-to-analog converters (DACs), which are vitally important for sound reproduction quality. The player's op-amps now have a higher speed with a more than 80 MHz bandwidth and ultra-low noise performance, and progressive scan performance has also been improved with the latest Faroudja Deinterlacer. Another innovation in the DVD 963SA brings a significant improvement to playback of consumers' existing collections of standard Audio CD discs. By replacing the standard 44.1 kHz/16 bit sampling with selectable CD Upsampling up to 192 kHz/24 bit, CD sound quality is further enhanced with a smoother and sweeter, almost analog-like quality which is both audibly and measurably superior to normal CD reproduction. Where other SACD players can do no more than simply reproduce Audio CDs at a basic level, the DVD 963SA goes one step further and brings CD sound to a next level. Consumers can choose between 96 kHz and 192 kHz CD Up-sampling options, which allow the best results to be obtained for CD recordings with different characteristics.
