Reviews[edit]

  • STEREO 8/2006: 38% sound level, price-performance 4 stars, excellent. "Like its bigger brothers, the 700 features Denon's "AL24 processing" technology, which helps it achieve a very grown-up and enlightened soundstage. Solidly finished and plumply equipped, it's more than worth the money.... The positive impression of the DCD-700AE is also fully confirmed by measurements." (Stereo 8/2006, p.42 - the test is together with the amplifier Denon PMA-700 AE and the tuner Denon TU-1500 AE )
  • Home Electronics 9/2006: Very good, buy tip
  • Hifi Test, issue 4/2006 (together with amplifier Denon PMA-700 AE): Grade 1,1, top class. Price/performance: Excellent
  • Audio 6/2006 (double test with amplifier Denon PMA-700 AE): Sound: very good, 90 points, top class, price/performance: very good.
  • Area DVD 4/2007: Sound: excellent
