Denon has announced the availability of a new Blu-ray player in North America, dubbed the DVD-1800BD which for Denon products, is at an "affordable" price point.
The company, known for outstanding quality in their DVD and Bu-ray players added that despite the price, audio and visual quality will not be compromised.
Set with a retail price of $749 USD, the player is Profile 1.1 compliant but will not have support for the BD-Live features that are coming in upcoming BD titles.
The DVD-1800BD "features HDMI 1.3a with Deep Color and Bonus View support, full bitstream output of Dolby and DTS-HD audio formats, as well as 1080p scaling from DVDs and 2-channel analogue audio output."
The player should hit retailer shelves in NA in October and then in November in the UK.
