Product Details:
The CQ-D5501 boasts a high precision 96kHz/24-bit D/A converter. According to digital audio theory, high frequency reproduction is limited to half the sampling frequency used for recording. Therefore, the frequency response of linear PCM audio in some DVD Videos can potentially extend all the way up to 48kHz (half 96kHz). While we cannot hear sounds above 20kHz, very high frequency overtones may infuence how we hear the details in audible sounds, such as the crash of symbals. Now the MP3 audio revolution hits the road. All models have built in MP3 decoders. Download MP3s from the web or convert your favourite CD tracks to MP3 format. Then record your compilation onto a CD-R/RW to play. Compared to CD format, MP3 lets you fit about 10* times more music onto each disc. Imagine!!! No more disc swapping on long drives.. * The figure refers to data recorded on a 650MB CD-R or CD-RW disc at a fixed rate of 128kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1kHz.
