ONE PLAYER TO RULE THEM ALL

25 January 2015

Denon Professional has introduced its DN-300Z, a compact, all-in-one media player that handles all popular playback formats.

The 1RU unit packs in Bluetooth technology for wireless streaming, front-loading media slots for CD, USB and SD/SDHC, an LCD screen, push encoder, support for CD-DA, MP3, WAV, AAC files and a built-in AM/FM tuner with inputs for 75-ohm coax (FM) and loop-style (AM) antenna to boost reception.

“We recognised the essential need for a professional playback device that embraces the BYOD trend in which many audio sources could be hand carried — even over the course of a single event,” said Denon Professional senior vice president, Costa Lakoumentas. “When the pace is moving at breakneck speed and you have to keep things flowing without interruption, the DN-300Z delivers seamless access to all your media, regardless of format.”
