CAUTION:
At the bottom of the player there are two red shipping screws for
use when the player is transported. Before using the player, turn
these screws counterclockwise and remove them.
If the shipping screws are still in place and the power is turned on,
the disc tray will not open. If this happens, turn off the power,
unplug the power cord from the power outlet and remove the
shipping screws.
Retain these screws as they will be needed when the player is
transported.
Before transporting the player, take out the discs, close the disc
tray, turn off the power after “0 00 00:00” is displayed and unplug
the power cord from the power outlet. Then install the shipping
screws by turning them clockwise. Be sure to fasten them
securely.

FEATURES
(1) HDCD
®
(High Definition Compatible Digital) decoder
(DCM-380 only)
HDCD is an encoding/decoding technology that greatly reduces
the distortion occurring at the time of digital recording while
maintaining compatibility with the conventional CD format. HDCD
allows 20-bit data to be converted into the 16-bit data of current
CDs with no loss in sound quality.
The use of this HDCD decoder makes it possible to achieve the
high resolution and low distortion characteristic of HDCD when
playing HDCD-compatible discs, and DENON’s digital technology
optimizes the high sound quality possibilities of HDCD
technology. Furthermore, normal CDs and HDCD-compatible CDs
are automatically identified, and the optimum digital signal
processing for that type of disc used.
(2) High performance digital filter
The DCM-380/280 uses high precision 8-times oversampling
digital filters.
(3) Simple Playback of 8cm CD Singles
8cm CD singles can be played without using an adaptor.
(4) Programming of up to 32 tracks
All of the tracks on a CD can be programmed to play in any order.
Programming in units of discs (all tracks on a disc) is also possible.
(5) Newly developed carousel-type changer mechanism
included
This mechanism can house five discs, and while one disc is
playing the remaining four discs can be changed. In addition, the
carousel can be rotated either clockwise or counterclockwise, so
searching between discs is fast.
(6) Wireless Remote Control Accessory
In addition to general operations such as Play, Stop and Pause,
this remote control unit enables direct selection, direct
programming, and other functions. Use of the remote control unit
adds greatly to the operating ease of the DCM-380/280,
enhancing its outstanding features.
(7) CD-RW Playback Capability
The DCM-380/280 can play finalized CD-R and CD-RW discs.
