Introduction

Thank you for purchasing this Cambridge Audio Azur 752BD Blu-ray Player. Like all Cambridge Audio products, our Blu-ray players adhere to our three core principles ? stunning performance, ease of use and incredible value.

The 752BD features almost universal disc/file compatibility and can play back CD, HDCD, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD and Blu-ray discs including those with 3D content plus most audio and video file formats from both USB connected hard-drives and network connected NAS drivers or servers.

Five WM8740 2-channel DACs from Wolfson Microelectronics are featured giving both a permanent 7.1 and a separate Stereo analog output. All analog outputs are also up-sampled via an Analog Devices DSP running our proprietary ATFTM upsampling and jitter suppression algorithm from Anagram Technologies to 24 bits and 192kHz.

This careful audio design ensures that the 752BD can reproduce the dynamics and scale required for modern movie soundtracks whilst also being able to reproduce a genuinely musical performance with either stereo or multi-channel music discs.

Twin HDMI outputs allow two screens or a screen and a projector to be connected at the same time. Both are fully compatible with the HDMI 1.4 standard for 3D TV and deep-colour support and both can receive Audio Return Channels (ARC) from TVs that support this feature.

ARC allows the TV to become an audio source to the BD Player allowing you to listen to music or video streaming services that your TV may feature in the best possible quality when up-sampled and output by the 752BD player.

The primary HDMI output also features a Marvell QDEO scaler with motion adaptive noise reduction and a host of technologies to further improve the picture quality for this output from any source. Up-scaling to 4K x 2K is possible for the very latest TVs that support this resolution.

S/P DIF, Toslink and two HDMI inputs (one of which also supports MHL) plus the two ARC inputs allow the 752BD to be your digital hub connecting a wide range of audio and video sources all of which can be up-sampled and up-scaled by the 752BD for the best possible audio or audio-visual experience.

An Ethernet connection is provided for BD Live, Network playback from UPnP/DNLA servers and NAS drives and other interactive features via the internet such as Picasa and YouTube. Additionally the 752BD is supplied with a USB Wi-Fi dongle.

The latest surround-sound formats are supported including decoding of Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio in Stereo, 5.1 or 7.1 variants. In particular support for the true lossless Dolby True HD and DTS HD Master Audio formats provides unprecedented audio fidelity from Blu-ray discs.

The 752BD is also capable of outputting all of these formats as bitstreams over HDMI for decoding in a suitable AV Receiver.

Lastly, the 752BD features an environmentally friendly low power ( ................
