The Pursuit of Master Sound Quality
Building on the success of the PD-D6-J, selected by EISA as Best
European Audio Player, the next generation Pioneer PD-D6MK2-K Super Audio CD Player will reproduce the
audio of your entire CD collection in its purest form.
Precision
tuned by top sound engineers at the world famous AIR
Studios, founded by legendary Beatles producer George
Martin, the PD-D6MK2's exceptionally quick-response power supply circuit, equipped with
Schottky barrier diodes and a new Lap type transformer. delivers pure, precise audio as
close to the original studio master recording as possible.
The black aluminium front panel, discreet blue LCD display with 3-step dimmer and high-quality
remote control speak volumes about the PD-D6MK2's uncompromising sound and build quality. Incorporating
the latest cutting-edge technology and specially selected components, the PD-D6MK2 is designed from the ground-up
to produce the purest sound.
A high-performance Low-Jitter crystal oscillator provides the foundations for the PD-D6MK2's
extremely stable new high precision master clock. Twin 24bit/192kHz Burr-Brown D/A converters enhance linearity
and dynamic range and reduce distortion, reproducing the most subtle musical details.
Pioneer's proprietary Hi-bit Legato Link Conversion PRO processor removes quantisation noise and
delivers a waveform that is both smoother and closer to the original than conventional 16-bit CD recording technology can
achieve by computing the original waveform and re-quantising it in expanded 20-bit form. And Legato Link provides the additional
benefit of extending the frequency response to 20kHz to ensure even more accurate and natural sound reproduction.
The PD-D6MK2's stable honeycomb chassis and aluminium front panel reduce resonance to an absolute minimum
and eliminate ground potential differences. Direct Construction suppresses signal interference and minimises
distortion by separating digital and analogue circuits, reducing PCB units and optimising the position of components along
the signal route to ensure the highest grade master-audio quality possible.
The Pioneer PD-D6MK2-K plays SACD, CD, CD-R and CD-RW discs with ease and is compatible with MP3 and WMA
compressed audio formats. Pure Audio listening mode switches off the digital circuitry and display for a
clean and detailed analogue sound reproduction.
The new Pioneer PD-D6MK2's sound is dynamic, providing excellent high frequency definition without any hint
of aggressive character.
