Complementing its pristine audio performance, the SDP-40
includes two broadcast-quality video switchers. An ultra-wide
bandwidth component video switcher accepts analog component
or RGB video signals, while a composite and S-video switcher
accepts high-quality NTSC, PAL, or SECAM video signals. The
component video switcher can pass High-Definition TV (HDTV)
and Standard-Definition TV signals. Both switchers are designed to
pass video signals without alteration or degradation.
An unparalleled audio and video control center, the SDP-40
represents a solid investment with awesome power, limitless
possibilities, and leading-edge technological sophistication. Even
the most demanding enthusiasts will be impressed with its
exceptional performance. Add to this extensive expansion
capabilities, and the SDP-40 is a must-have addition for any high-
quality home theater.
