DENONDBP2012Black Blu-ray Player

"Denon delivers a Blu-ray stunner to take on all comers" What Hi-Fi Sound & Vision magazine.

With rave reviews from, amongst others, What Hi-Fi Sound & Vision magazine, the Denon DBP2012 has taken the Blu-ray market by storm. This universal player not only offers a broad range of facilities but does so whilst also offering the best picture and sound quality at its price.

Ultimately, a player of this class should offer first rate picture and sound quality; and that's exactly what the DBP2012 does. Being a universal player, the DBP2012 not only plays back Blu-rays and DVDs but also Super Audio CDs and DVD-Audio formats for the ultimate in disc flexibility and quality playback. Audio components have been strictly selected by Denon for high quality sound and there's Independent Block Construction for faithful playback. For the best possible audio quality, there's also a Pure Direct Mode. Certainly, this is one impressive sounding player. As What Hi-Fi magazine commented; "It's a muscular listen too, with exceptional scale and weight..."

The picture quality is every bit as impressive as the sound. A high precision video encoder with external high bit I/P Scalar gives cleaner images with richer colours from both SD (Standard Definition) and HD (High Definition) sources. With a well renowned Anchor Bay ABT2015 upscaling chipset, the DBP2012 will also get the very best pictures from your DVDs. Whether you play Blu-rays in 2D or 3D or even DVDs, the Denon DBP2012 simply has one of the best picture qualities in its class.

In terms of features and connectivity, the DBP2012 has all that you'd expect from a player of its status. Extensive network compatibility covers a range of apps for websites such as YouTube and DLNA streaming from other devices on your home network such as PC, laptop or NAS (Network Attached Storage) device. Other connectivity includes a front-mounted USB socket for connecting a media device, a 7.1 channel output for connection to older AV receivers and gold plated terminals.

If you're after a Blu-ray player that will do it all then few will do it as well as the Denon DBP2012.
