McIntosh audio/video players have been engineered for uncompromised sound quality, and the MVP871 underscores that design philosophy with state-of-the-art 24-bit D/A conversion. Analog, highly-regulated power supplies provide the low noise necessary to exploit the full capabilities of the new audio section. Balanced-line XLR connectors output down-mixed 2-channel audio from the differential D/A converters impart top-notch audio reproduction.
The addition of HDMI connectivity simplifies connection to the most current equipment, and its ability to simultaneously output HDMI, Component-video, S-video, and Composite-video will prove invaluable in complex installations.
On the video side, the 12-bit 216MHz video DAC generates a superior-quality picture that is available as 480i and 480p on the Components output, and up to 1080p on the HDMI output. Both NTSC and PAL video formats are supported, and a new Audio/Video SYNC adjustment is included.
For enhanced playability of damaged discs, the MVP871’s innovative transport mechanism spins CDs at 4 times the usual speed and DVDs at 2 times the usual speed storing data into a large buffer memory. This allows the laser to refocus and continue uninterrupted through many disc defects giving new life to many previously unplayable discs.
