Dedicated to High-Res Disc Playback: Japanese-Made Denon DCD-3000NE Reference SACD/CD Player Features Patented Drive Mechanism, Quad DAC Configuration, and Ultra AL32 Processing
Seventh-generation Ultra AL32 processing, a patented S.V.H. CD drive mechanism, DVD-R/RW support, hand-selected high-end parts, and Japanese build quality that adheres to perfectionist standards: The Denon DCD-3000NE SACD/CD player delivers on its reference badging. Measuring 4.75 x 17.13 x 10.75 inches (HWD), DCD-3000NE offers superb fidelity as well as the benefits of a 32-bit/384kHz DAC in quad configuration that delivers clean playback marked by tremendous air, spaciousness, detail, and frequency extension.
Able to render your silver discs with robust dynamics, precise articulation, and see-through transparency, DCD-3000NE uses interpolation algorithms to produce output that’s emotionally involving and physically impactful. It upsamples to generate smooth waveforms and across-the-board sonic enhancements. Denon’s Pure Direct Mode disables the display and digital outputs to mitigate any interference that could disturb the delicate signal. And the Suppression Vibration Hybrid drive — comprised of a copper-plate top panel, die-cast aluminum tray, and 2mm-thick steel brackets to render noise obsolete — ensures all your discs load quickly and spin at consistent speeds, resulting in sharp data reading.
Further solidified with a premium master clock and elements hand-tuned by Denon’s sound master, DCD-3000NE treats digital playback as a white-glove luxury. Factor in an aluminum-topped remote control, uncluttered back-panel layout, and off-the-charts specifications, and DCD-3000NE makes for a fantastic choice for any audiophile seeking a component dedicated to enticing disc playback.
Please note: DCD-3000NE does not have digital inputs and cannot be used as a DAC for streaming.
