The Denon DCD-1700NE CD/SACD Player reproduces accurate, clear sound with minimal vibrations and distortions so that your CDs sound divine. Equipped with an ultra-precision 192kHz/32bit D/A converter and advanced AL32 Processing Plus which supports high-resolution audio sources and delivers highly detailed, free of interference, richly expressive, and beautifully faithful to the original sound - so you can listen to your music as the artist intended. Features a Pure Direct Mode that feeds sound directly to the connected receiver or amplifier, bypassing any processing that might otherwise color the signal, resulting in clean, detailed, accurate sound. The player is outfitted with high-quality RCA terminals, optical and coaxial digital outputs, and a power inlet, and allows you to connect to your AV receiver, stereo receiver, preamplifier, or Denon’s PMA-1700NE integrated amplifier.
Q: Any reason I can play CDs but no sound coming from SACDs? I am using optical output.
A: Turns out that quite a few amplifiers can't process the DSD stream (even if their product descriptions say they can). Using the Analog Audio out from the unit works. Something I learned recently was, if you get nothing from either Analog or Digital outputs, unplug the unit for a couple of minutes (hard reset) and then plug it back in.
Q: Will this unit play multi-channel sacd's?
A: Hello. The DCD-1700NE is a 2 channel player. It does not support playback of multi-channel SACDs.
Q: What SPEAKERS GO WITH THIS CD PLAYER
A: Hello, the Denon DCD-1700NE is a CD/SACD player designed to be paired with an integrated amp or AV Receiver. Pair your favorite speakers with the connected Amplifier.
Q: My new denon cd player won’t play. It is connected to a Denon amplifier.
A: Hello. Sorry to learn of the inconvenience. The first thing to try is a power reset - completely disconnect the DCD-1700NE from the power source for 15 minutes and power back up again.
