About the Denon DCM-290
The DCM-290 from Denon combines five-disc convenience with advanced technology to make your CDs sound better than ever. The disc carousel spins in either direction, so you can jump from disc to disc without long periods of silence in between. You can also pop in a CD-R or CD-RW loaded with MP3 or WMA (Windows® Media Audio) files for hours of your favorite tunes. Random play helps keep your music fresh, or you can use 20-track program play to specify a custom song sequence.
Denon's proprietary digital-to-analog converter fights jitter to maintain the purity of the music signal. Optical and coaxial digital outputs allow you to make a noise-free connection to your receiver, so you'll hear your music exactly as it was recorded.

Features
Advanced Multilevel Noise Shaping DAC: The DCM-290 features a Multilevel Noise Shaping DAC. This multi-level modulation powerfully removes the adverse effects of jitter, and because it is built into the output amp, a clean analog output with suppressed high-frequency interference can be directly obtained.
Disc Exchange: You can exchange up to 4 discs while playing a fifth; once the drawer is open, 3 CDs can be changed, then you must use the disc skip button to remove the remaining one.
Music Calendar: The player has a 20-track music calendar.
MP3/WMA Playback: This unit will play MP3 and WMA files recorded onto CD-R and CD-RW discs using the ISO 9660 level format. A maximum of 256 folders can be played and the total number of files and folders is 512.
Program Play: Up to 32 tracks can be programmed and played in any order.
Random Play: This unit allows you to choose Full Random Play, Program Random Play, or Disc Sequential Random Play. When Full Random Play is selected, all the tracks on the loaded discs are played in random order. When Program Random Play is selected, all the programmed tracks are played in random order. When Disc Sequential Random Play is selected, you can select the CDs to be played in random order. Up to 5 discs can be selected.
Repeat Play: The DCM-290 allows you to repeat the current track, current disc, or all discs. In addition, you can repeat Program Play and Random Play.
Direct Selection: Using the supplied remote, you can directly access discs and tracks.
Dimmer: You can select one of three brightness levels, or the display can be turned off.
Inputs and Outputs Notes
