Cabling is also an area that should not be overlooked. Please do not
compromise your system's performance by using poor quality cables to
connect either your DVD to your television and amplifier or the
amplifiers' output to your loudspeakers. A system is only as good as its
weakest link. Your dealer can supply quality Cambridge Audio
interconnects that will ensure your whole system realises its full
potential.
Thanks for taking the time to read this manual; we do recommend you
keep it for future reference.

Congratulations on purchasing this Cambridge Audio 80 Series DVD
player. We hope that you will enjoy many years of rewarding ownership.
The DVD85, 86 and 89 models all support normal CD and DVD discs,
while the DVD89 is also a ‘universal’ player that supports DVD-Audio
(DVD-A) and Super Audio CD (SACD). These new audiophile formats
allow even greater sound quality than CD/DVD and also allow multi-
channel surround-sound audio.
In addition, the DVD85, 86 and 89 all support DivX® playback for good
quality highly compressed video and audio often downloaded from the
internet. The DVD89 also features the very latest DVD-D and HDMI
outputs for true all digital transmission of video to the TV screen for the
very best picture quality currently available.
To maximise the performance from this equipment we would encourage
you to use only high quality viewing equipment, amplification and
loudspeakers. Of course we particularly recommend amplification from
the Cambridge Audio range, which has been designed to the same
exacting standards as this DVD player.
