Features
About the Super Audio CD
- Super Audio CD is a new high-quality audio disc
standard where music is recorded in the DSD (Direct
Stream Digital) format (conventional CDs are recorded
in the PCM format). The DSD format, using a sampling
frequency 64 times higher than that of a conventional
CD, and with 1-bit quantization, achieves both a wide
frequency range and a wide dynamic range across the
audible frequency range, and so provides music
reproduction extremely faithful to the original sound.
- The Super Audio CD has two types; a 2 channel stereo
disc and a Multi-channel disc which holds up to 6
independent channels. The multi-channel characteristic
of the Super Audio CD features a speaker allocation
system basically similar to the 5.1 channel output of
current AV systems.
Features of the player
This player is designed to play back 2-channel and multi-
channel Super Audio CDs, and conventional CDs, and
provides the following features:
- Mounted with a Discrete Dual Laser Optical Pickup,
capable of reading a Super Audio CD or conventional
CD depending on the exclusive wavelength.
- Quicker track access performance enabled by an
advanced servo mechanism.
- A Multi-Channel Management function that allows you
to adjust the multi-channel playback environment
according to the allocation and size of your speakers.
- A Super Audio D/A Converter and Direct Digital Sync
System, which allows higher-quality sound
reproduction.
- Editing of Disc and Track Titles, etc., on a TEXT display
for Super Audio CDs and conventional CDs.
Others
- A Super Audio CD can mark up to 255 track numbers.
This feature applies to SCD-C222ES.
- The supplied remote is capable of controlling both the
SCD-C222ES and a conventional Sony CD player.
