and HDMI™ Digital Interfaces
In 1985, the engineers of Sony® ES surprised the world of high fidelity.
The Sony CDP-650ES was the world's first CD transport with a digital output,
enabling unheard-of sound quality and unprecedented flexibility in audio system
configuration. Now such interfaces are taken for granted in high fidelity.

In 1997, Sony staged another coup with the DCR-VX1000 Handycam®
camcorder, the world's first video component to incorporate IEEE 1394, called
the i.LINK® interface by Sony. Now such interfaces are found on almost every
digital camcorder and millions of personal computers.

In 2003, Sony took the i.LINK interface in an entirely new direction with the
SCD-XA9000ES Super Audio CD/CD player. It was Sony's first to use the i.LINK
interface to carry an uncompressed digital output for the Super Audio CD's Direct
Stream Digital® signal.

Today, Sony takes digital interfaces one step further. The DVP-
NS9100ES is Sony's first DVD/Super Audio CD/CD
1
player to incorporate the
i.LINK digital audio output. While both the NS9100ES and the NS3100ES
incorporate a High Definition HDMI digital output that unifies both video and
multi-channel audio! These are the most advanced digital interfaces Sony has
ever built into a home A/V source component.

i.LINK Digital Audio Output (NS9100ES)
From the initial launch of Super Audio CD, the 1-bit DSD® pulse train was
always converted to analog prior to output. This means that previous DVD
players with Super Audio CD capability could only output the SA-CD sound in
analog, not digital, even if the player included coaxial and optical digital outputs.
