Indianapolis, IN, September 5, 2012 – Denon Electronics, a premier manufacturer of high quality home entertainment components, is providing consumers and custom installers the ultimate quality Blu-ray experience with the addition of its DBT‐3313UDCI Universal Disc Player (SRP:$999.99) to its lineup. Available this month, the versatile DBT-3313UDCI represents the leading edge in Blu-ray performance and capabilities. Featuring a sleek new cosmetic design with an aluminum front-panel, the DBT-3313UDCI provides superior playback of virtually all 5-inch silver discs. In addition to its ultimate-quality video reproduction, the unit reflects Denon’s longstanding heritage as an audio leader, offering impeccable high-resolution sonic playback, including DVD-Audio and SACD. The player also enhances the home entertainment experience with features such as Kodak Picture CD compatibility, as well as DivX HD+, FLAC, MP3 and WMA playback.

Stream Videos from All Your Favorite Internet Sources
The DBT-3313UDCI is designed to give people more options for enjoying all their favorite movies and music. Users can easily stream videos from online services such as Netflix*, VUDU, Hulu, and YouTube, always enjoying maximum video and audio quality. Thanks to its dual HDMI outputs and AV PURE DIRECT functionality, users can connect the DBT-3313UDCI to a 3D TV and non‐3D capable AVR separately, and the “AV PURE DIRECT” further enhances audio quality. For total flexibility and easy content access, the DBT-3313UDCI comes with a USB port on the front along with two HDMI outputs, an Ethernet port, a left/right analog audio output for multi-zone distribution, and remote control in/out ports. In addition to its Netflix* and YouTube streaming, the unit is DLNA 1.5-certified for audio/video/photo streaming from networked computers and compatible NAS drives. The new ‘DENON LINK HD’ feature works in combination with select new Denon AV receivers, offering superb sounding, jitter-free playback of all content.

Unmatched Build Quality, Fan-Less Construction
The DBT-3313UDCI’s exceptional build quality features a leading-edge fan‐less construction and new “Suppress Vibration Hybrid” loading mechanism, with a rock-solid dual layer top and bottom for stable, noise‐less playback. The fully shielded drive mechanism provides steady and precise playback. Included with the player is an intuitive new remote control featuring glowing cursor and operation keys and direct access buttons for online video services. You can also use the remote to operate a Denon AV receiver. Additionally, Denon offers the Denon Remote App, download to control the DBT-3313UDCI using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch (when using the player in conjunction with a Denon AV receiver launching in 2012 that supports the app).

Noted Yoshinori Yamada, D+M Group Product Planning Manager, “Denon’s guiding principle has always been to provide our customers with the best possible, most straightforward ways to elevate their home entertainment experience. With our new DBT-3313UDCI and all our Universal Blu-ray products, we now offer the very best this exciting format has to offer – and more. This cutting-edge unit delivers all the audio and video power intended by content providers – whether from a silver disc or the Internet – as well as a greater level of interactivity and ease of use.”
