Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Take your digital home entertainment to new peaks with Onkyo's DV-CP702 6-disc DVD/CD player. Onkyo's exclusive ExperienCinema design will deliver superlative video and audio quality from a range of optical media, from DVD-Video movies to homemade recordable DVD (DVD-R, DVD-RW), video CD, MP3 and WMA music CD, and digital photo discs (JPEG CD-R/CD-RW, Kodak Picture CD). Sit back and enjoy hour upon hour of movies and music courtesy of the DV-CP702's progressive-scan circuitry, its many playback modes (including track programming, repeat play, and random play for all formats), and its ultra-quiet disc-loading mechanism.

ExperienCinema entails the use of state-of-the-art 192 kHz/24-bit audio DACs (digital-to-analog converters) and a 54 MHz/10-bit video DAC, as well as Onkyo's VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry), all of which make this one of the most technologically advanced carousel changers on the market.

Conventional digital-to-analog conversion methods reduce digital pulse noise at the conversion stage but can't remove it completely. Previously only found on Onkyo's high-end components, VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) employs a unique D/A conversion circuit to overcome this problem. Data is converted between sampling points and these points are joined with analog vectors in real-time to produce a smooth output wave form. The result: a virtually noiseless, smooth analog signal, based on the digital source, that brings out even the most subtle of nuances in your music, movie soundtracks and even MP3s.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DV-CP702 will deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each of RCA coaxial and Toslink optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. A 96 kHz/24-bit digital-to-analog converter ensures optimum decoding of all disc formats, and you can select an output resolution of either 96 or 48 kHz, depending on the input capabilities of your receiver.

The player's Last Memory function lets you resume playback from a specific point on a DVD-Video disc or video CD, even if that disc has been removed from the player (you have to put it back in first, though!).

What's in the Box
DVD player, a remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, a stereo analog audio/composite-video cable, an S-video cable, a coaxial digital-audio cable, an RI remote-operation cable, and warranty/registration information.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good DVD Player, but Not All its Cracked Up to Be., August 14, 2006

This review is from: Onkyo DV-CP702 DVD Player and Changer - BLACK (Electronics)

Just purchased the Onkyo DV CP702 to replace my Onkyo CV C-601. The picture quality of the new unit is excellent, resulting primarily from progressive scan circuity. Audio playback of CD's is also improved over my previous model.

There are two problems with this unit based on evaluating it for the past couple of weeks. First, the remove control sensor has a limited vertical and horizontal field. I find myself having to hit remove buttons more than once to get a response back from the DVD player.

The biggest disappointment is in Onkyo's inability to play JPEG files. I loaded a CD with .JPEG files, and although the Navigator came up and worked as it should, when it came to looking at an individual picture of starting a slide show, the unit scanned each picture line by line, resulting in it taking over 30-seconds for a complete picture to be displayed. I contacted what Onkyo calls Customer Support. After waiting 21-minutes to be helped, I was told by the Representative of the company "that's the way it works, and there's nothing you or we can do about it".

Since Onkyo is obviously aware of the limitations of this DVD player in presenting .JPEG file ls in a "reasonable" amount of time, I believe it has a responsibility to report this to customers in their product description, so that customers would be able to use this information in making a choice as to spending $165 for this DVD player, that it some respects cannot perform things like playing .JPEG files as good as a $60 JVC or Sony (entry level) unit is capable of doing.

I will be returning this because dissatisfaction of the product and misrepresentation on the part of the company as to its capabilities. I've been a loyal Onkyo owner for nearly a decade, however, this experience will result in my having to reevaluate my trust and confidence in Onkyo as a viable manufacturer of consumer electronic equipment.

Mine died after less than two years of very little use. One day, the tray just opened and started spinning and does not stop even if you turn it off using the power button!?!

2.0 out of 5 stars slide show function useless, December 14, 2008

I bought my DV-CP702 DVD Chnager about two years ago at suggestion of Best Buy salesman. Works well for DVD video but I have just tried to run a jpeg photo slide show and each picture is scanned line by line, Taking baout 30 seconds per picture. It's useless for jpeg slide shows that are claimed in the manual. A very inexpensive DVD player does a better job with this so I question quality control. I'll be very careful with my next Onkyo purchase.
