Cambridge Audio's best ever universal player, the AZUR 752BD Universal Upsampling Blu-Ray, DVD and SACD Player, extracts the very most from video and audio discs, digital files and streaming thanks to a high quality Marvel QDEO video processor.Live and experience high quality video and Audio in 3D HD. The AZUR 752BD Universal Upsampling Blu-Ray, DVD and SACD Player will bring the whole world to life in your own living room.

ATF2 Upsampling

The 752BD features Cambridge Audio's unique ATF2 upsampling technology. All incoming audio data, such as CD quality 16-bit/44.1kHz, is upsampled to 24-bit/192kHz using a high-end 32-bit Analog Devices DSP and five Wolfson audio DACs. "Polynomial Curve Fitting Interpolation" provides a much more accurate upsampled audio soundwave than traditional upsampling processes. The player's unique timing system buffers audio data to almost eradicate digital jitter, as jitter, common in digital audio devices, loses vital detail, often leaving digital audio sounding flat and lifeless.

Video Processing 

All sources receive significant boosts to video quality and detail with the 752BD's Marvell Qdeo processor. This includes the option to upscale to full HD, add live 2D-to-3D conversion or even upscale to the new 4K ultra-high-definition format.

Universal Disc Player

The 752BD handles just about every disc out there. Not just Blu-ray (including BD-3D), SACD, DVD and CD, but also DVD-A, AVCHD, HDCD, Kodak Picture CD, CD-R/RW, DVD ±R/RW, DVD ±R DL, and BD-R/RE. It also features an MHL link for smartphones and tablets, a Mobile High-definition Link via front-mounted HDMI with video upscaling and audio upsampling of all content, and Wi-Fi/ethernet networking for access to all your music, photos and videos over network from UPnP NAS drives, laptops and desktop hard drives. 

Lightning-Fast Disc Loading

The latest in transports and Mediatek chipsets mean information loads from discs faster.

Full Connectivity And Internet Streaming

Two 3D-ready HDMI 1.4 inputs, two 3D-ready HDMI 1.4 outputs, three USB ports, digital optical and coaxial inputs and outputs, MHL smartphone/tablet link, dedicated stereo and 7.1 surround sound analogue audio outputs etc. The 752BD has a connection for everything. The 752BD also has surround sound audio codecs that include Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS and DTS-HD Master Audio, and there is access to online streaming services such as YouTube and Picasa directly through the 752BD’s Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections.

Selectable Digital Filters With Three Settings

• Steep roll-off filter exhibits strong attenuation of aliasing images outside the pass band (i.e. above 22.05kHz) at the expense of a little pre and post-ringing in the time domain.
• Linear phase filter uniquely features ‘constant group delay’ which delays all audio signals at all frequencies by the same amount meaning all audio is fully time-coherent at the output.
• Minimum phase meanwhile does not feature constant group delay but rather the co-efficients have been optimised without feed-forward so that the impulse response exhibits no pre-ringing in the time domain.
