Vintage dedicated DVD-Audio player in mint condition and in working order with a brand new laser assembly installed and calibrated. The only blemishes are minor scratches on the back of the unit where the connections are located. Otherwise, the unit is mint with no other marks or scratches whatsoever. A real beauty considering its age. Comes with users manual, power cord, composite video cable and original remote control. NOTE: The original remote control is functional but its “enter” button has come off (The button is included should you want to have it reinstalled). I am including a brand-new, unused, boxed, and fully functional replacement remote control for this unit. This is a one-of-a-kind gem and you’re unlikely to find another in this condition. Buy with confidence. Here’s a review of the unit written when it was originally presented: Technics DVD-A10 DVD-Audio Player Review by Dwayne Carter DVD-Audio takes advantage of the enormous amount of storage on the DVD format (4.7GB). That's about 400 minutes of audio and video depending on resolutions and number of channels used. Many DVD- Audio discs contain music videos as well. I have spent the past three months auditioning, playing and finally owning the new Technics DVD-A10, DVD-Audio player. I'm Hooked. To start with, the Technics DVD-A10 is a visually stunning piece of equipment for the price (MSRP $1,199). My review unit came in the new, warm champagne color (right down to the lighted remote). While most of my A/V gear comes in the obligatory black, I welcomed this silvery /gold color change. Heaving the DVD-A10 from its confines, weighing in at a solid 19 pounds, it was placed it front and center of the new Listening Room / Home Office. This room is fitted for 5.1 Surround Sound so the full capabilities of this new media could be explored. The DVD-A10 needs to be connected to a receiver that is capable of accepting all six analog outputs (Front Left, Right, Center, Rear Right, Left and Sub), if you want to experience the full six channel mode. You could use that old AC-3-Ready receiver you still may have hanging around, but do yourself a favor and spring for one of the new multi-channel receivers. The DVD-A10 can decode Dolby Digital as well as DTS so you probably want a receiver that can handle that, as most do. If you do not have a DTS capable receiver that is ok because the DVD-A10 will decode those formats for ya'! To defeat software pirates, the digital outputs only stream data at 48 kHz/16-bit (CD quality) and down-mixes multiple channels to two channel PCM signals. In short, you are not gonna' make a six channel recording of your favorite DVD-Audio folks. You can make on clean CD quality mix though...but why would you want to? The DVD-A10 connects to a multi-channel receiver via six analog inputs. I connected six matching audio interconnects and dialed in the system. This is how the majority of listening in full six-channel mode (where applicable) was done, but also did quite a bit of two channel listening as well. I purchased two DVD-Audio discs. Natalie Merchants Tigerlily [Wea/Elektra Entertainment - ASIN: B0000507R2], and The Corrs In Blue [Wea/Atlantic/Lava - ASIN: B0000560XJ]. Listening to a musical selection in six-channel surround is truly a different experience and takes a bit of getting used to. For audio purist, comfortable with only listening to music in two channels, this may be quite unsettling. I auditioned many selections in both two and six channels and over time started favoring the six channels format. Why? Well, in six channels there was a feeling of involvement with the music. Being part of the program instead of an outsider just listening in. The added sonic resolution also introduced many new riffs and sounds to many of the songs auditioned. On Tigerlily, I was often surprised to hear a totally new guitar riff that I did not know existed before. Cool! My overall impression of DVD-Audio (on the Technics DVD-A10) was one of clarity, envelopment and space. There was a clear definition to the notes. A beginning and an end. The music had a quality about it that relates to watching an HDTV program vs. an NTSC broadcast program. The HDTV image has much more definition and clarity. If you have ever had the privilege to enjoy a few of your favorite shows, broadcast in HDTV, I assure you will be begging for more. The same can be said for DVD-Audio. What if you do not have a surround sound setup in your audio only listening room? Well, at the very worst, DVD-Audio (in two channel mode) sounds like the best CD recording you've ever heard (when the material on the software is done well). In six-channel mode DVD-Audio is a totally new musical experience. If you're looking for techno-babble to convince you to buy the Technics DVD-A10, here's a little. The DVD-A10 comes with: THCB (Technics Hybrid Construction Base) that helps isolate the music signal from vibrations, separate power supplies for analog and digital circuitry, audio-only function, built-in Dolby Digital and DTS decoder, 10-bit video D/A converter for high quality picture, two-channel sound with 192 kHz sampling/24-bit quantization, multi-channel sound capabilities using linear PCM with up to 96 kHz sampling rate, a dynamic range of 144 dB, digital re-master processing function (should you want to play CDs on it), audiophile quality TA-KE II capacitors and A.V.B.O. (Advanced Virtual Battery Operation) that is claimed to help eliminate power supply noise. As far as outputs? Component video out, two S-Video outs, two RCA video outs, six channel analog outs, coaxial and TOSlink digital outs and two sets of RCA analog outs. Oh.... I forgot! It also has a really cool pale blue light that glows (ever so softly) on each side of the display. Of all the techno-goodies the DVD-A10 comes with, I was really impressed by the AVBO (no hum or noise. It is q- u-i-e-t quiet!) and the THCB (the construction base) makes this one of the sturdiest DVD players I have ever felt. This unit is heavy, solid, looks and sounds great and is clearly the statement piece for Technics foray into the world of DVD-Audio. The manual leaves a little to be desired in the way of descriptions. Never did figure out what the RE-MASTER function does. The manual describes this function as Re-Master: You can turn the Re-Master function on or off . Gee thanks, that helps. The factory setting is ON, so I left it on. There are so many other cool features, this review would be ten pages long, so suffice to say, it's loaded for bear. The DVD-A10 is not cheap at $1,199 MSRP. Six channel sound? Yes, you can enjoy excellent sound quality on your two-channel system but you should really try six channels to really experience DVD-Audio. Ok, so that means purchasing three more speakers and a subwoofer. My listening room was already equipped with surround speakers (in-walls) so only needed to add a center channel. For the optimum system it is paramount to have five timbre matched loudspeakers, which in my case would require a sizable investment. So yes the costs start adding up. Then again if you already own a home theater system, just add the DVD-Audio player to your rack. Overall I am going to give the Technics DVD-A10 DVD-Audio player high praise. The format is new and exciting. It will only get better. If you have the opportunity to listen to a DVD-Audio demo in a controlled and quiet environment please do. You will not be disappointed. The DVD-A10 can play all formats (DVD Video Discs, Video CDs and Compact Discs) so I have a second system for the price of one! DVD-Audio releases are rolling out on a regular basis, so there are many new audio experiences to look forward to. Take a DVD-Audio demo out for a spin. If it feels right, buy it. You won't regret it.

Of all the techno-goodies the DVD-A10 comes with, I was really impressed by the AVBO (no hum or noise. It is q- u-i-e-t quiet!) and the THCB (the construction base) makes this one of the sturdiest DVD players I have ever felt. This unit is heavy, solid, looks and sounds great and is clearly the statement piece for Technics foray into the world of DVD-Audio. The manual leaves a little to be desired in the way of descriptions. Never did figure out what the RE-MASTER function does. The manual describes this function as Re-Master: You can turn the Re-Master function on or off . Gee thanks, that helps. The factory setting is ON, so I left it on. There are so many other cool features, this review would be ten pages long, so suffice to say, it's loaded for bear. The DVD-A10 is not cheap at $1,199 MSRP. Six channel sound? Yes, you can enjoy excellent sound quality on your two-channel system but you should really try six channels to really experience DVD-Audio. Ok, so that means purchasing three more speakers and a subwoofer. My listening room was already equipped with surround speakers (in-walls) so only needed to add a center channel. For the optimum system it is paramount to have five timbre matched loudspeakers, which in my case would require a sizable investment. So yes the costs start adding up. Then again if you already own a home theater system, just add the DVD-Audio player to your rack. Overall I am going to give the Technics DVD-A10 DVD-Audio player high praise. The format is new and exciting. It will only get better. If you have the opportunity to listen to a DVD-Audio demo in a controlled and quiet environment please do. You will not be disappointed. The DVD-A10 can play all formats (DVD Video Discs, Video CDs and Compact Discs) so I have a second system for the price of one! DVD-Audio releases are rolling out on a regular basis, so there are many new audio experiences to look forward to. Take a DVD-Audio demo out for a spin. If it feels right, buy it. You won't regret it.

Vintage dedicated DVD-Audio player in mint condition and in working order with a brand new laser assembly installed and calibrated. The only blemishes are minor scratches on the back of the unit where the connections are located. Otherwise, the unit is mint with no other marks or scratches whatsoever. A real beauty considering its age. Comes with users manual, power cord, composite video cable and original remote control. NOTE: The original remote control is functional but its “enter” button has come off (The button is included should you want to have it reinstalled). I am including a brand-new, unused, boxed, and fully functional replacement remote control for this unit. This is a one-of-a-kind gem and you’re unlikely to find another in this condition. Buy with confidence. Here’s a review of the unit written when it was originally presented: Technics DVD-A10 DVD-Audio Player Review by Dwayne Carter DVD-Audio takes advantage of the enormous amount of storage on the DVD format (4.7GB). That's about 400 minutes of audio and video depending on resolutions and number of channels used. Many DVD- Audio discs contain music videos as well. I have spent the past three months auditioning, playing and finally owning the new Technics DVD-A10, DVD-Audio player. I'm Hooked. To start with, the Technics DVD-A10 is a visually stunning piece of equipment for the price (MSRP $1,199). My review unit came in the new, warm champagne color (right down to the lighted remote). While most of my A/V gear comes in the obligatory black, I welcomed this silvery /gold color change. Heaving the DVD-A10 from its confines, weighing in at a solid 19 pounds, it was placed it front and center of the new Listening Room / Home Office. This room is fitted for 5.1 Surround Sound so the full capabilities of this new media could be explored. The DVD-A10 needs to be connected to a receiver that is capable of accepting all six analog outputs (Front Left, Right, Center, Rear Right, Left and Sub), if you want to experience the full six channel mode. You could use that old AC-3-Ready receiver you still may have hanging around, but do yourself a favor and spring for one of the new multi-channel receivers. The DVD-A10 can decode Dolby Digital as well as DTS so you probably want a receiver that can handle that, as most do. If you do not have a DTS capable receiver that is ok because the DVD-A10 will decode those formats for ya'! To defeat software pirates, the digital outputs only stream data at 48 kHz/16-bit (CD quality) and down-mixes multiple channels to two channel PCM signals. In short, you are not gonna' make a six channel recording of your favorite DVD-Audio folks. You can make on clean CD quality mix though...but why would you want to? The DVD-A10 connects to a multi-channel receiver via six analog inputs. I connected six matching audio interconnects and dialed in the system. This is how the majority of listening in full six-channel mode (where applicable) was done, but also did quite a bit of two channel listening as well. I purchased two DVD-Audio discs. Natalie Merchants Tigerlily [Wea/Elektra Entertainment - ASIN: B0000507R2], and The Corrs In Blue [Wea/Atlantic/Lava - ASIN: B0000560XJ]. Listening to a musical selection in six-channel surround is truly a different experience and takes a bit of getting used to. For audio purist, comfortable with only listening to music in two channels, this may be quite unsettling. I auditioned many selections in both two and six channels and over time started favoring the six channels format. Why? Well, in six channels there was a feeling of involvement with the music. Being part of the program instead of an outsider just listening in. The added sonic resolution also introduced many new riffs and sounds to many of the songs auditioned. On Tigerlily, I was often surprised to hear a totally new guitar riff that I did not know existed before. Cool! My overall impression of DVD-Audio (on the Technics DVD-A10) was one of clarity, envelopment and space. There was a clear definition to the notes. A beginning and an end. The music had a quality about it that relates to watching an HDTV program vs. an NTSC broadcast program. The HDTV image has much more definition and clarity. If you have ever had the privilege to enjoy a few of your favorite shows, broadcast in HDTV, I assure you will be begging for more. The same can be said for DVD-Audio. What if you do not have a surround sound setup in your audio only listening room? Well, at the very worst, DVD-Audio (in two channel mode) sounds like the best CD recording you've ever heard (when the material on the software is done well). In six-channel mode DVD-Audio is a totally new musical experience. If you're looking for techno-babble to convince you to buy the Technics DVD-A10, here's a little. The DVD-A10 comes with: THCB (Technics Hybrid Construction Base) that helps isolate the music signal from vibrations, separate power supplies for analog and digital circuitry, audio-only function, built-in Dolby Digital and DTS decoder, 10-bit video D/A converter for high quality picture, two-channel sound with 192 kHz sampling/24-bit quantization, multi-channel sound capabilities using linear PCM with up to 96 kHz sampling rate, a dynamic range of 144 dB, digital re-master processing function (should you want to play CDs on it), audiophile quality TA-KE II capacitors and A.V.B.O. (Advanced Virtual Battery Operation) that is claimed to help eliminate power supply noise. As far as outputs? Component video out, two S-Video outs, two RCA video outs, six channel analog outs, coaxial and TOSlink digital outs and two sets of RCA analog outs. Oh.... I forgot! It also has a really cool pale blue light that glows (ever so softly) on each side of the display. Of all the techno-goodies the DVD-A10 comes with, I was really impressed by the AVBO (no hum or noise.

Ich biete folgendes zum Verkauf an: Einen High-End DVD-Player von Technics, Typ DVD-A10. Das Gerät ist in einem gebrauchten, aber guten Zustand und war nur selten in Betrieb. Soweit ich beurteilen kann, ist der DVD-Player voll funktionsfähig, keine Beeinträchtigungen, lediglich ein paar kleine Kratzer am Gehäuse. Lieferumfang: Das Gerät selbst, Netzkabel, Fernbedienung und Betriebsanleitung. Der Originalkarton ist nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Fernbedienung habe ich nie verwendet, ich habe das Gerät über die Fernbedienung meines Technics-Receivers (SA-DA10) bedient. Daher kann ich leider nicht beurteilen, ob die Fernbedienung voll funktionsfähig ist. In einem Schnelltest hat sie funktioniert, aber die Funktionen der Fernbedienung und des Gerätes sind so umfangreich, dass ich es nicht beurteilen kann. Somit lege ich die Fernbedienung sicherheitshalber als Defekt bei. Funktionen bzw.
