== Comments ==
 
* Other models in the same series:
 
** [[Denon DCD-520 AE]]
 
** Denon DCD-720 AE
 
* This unit is similar in many ways to its predecessor, the DCD-710 AE. Notable difference is a new converter, which also comes from Burr Brown (see above).
 
* Predecessor model: [[Denon DCD-710 AE]]
 
* Successor model: none yet (as of 3/2018).
 
* The remote control is matched in color to the models: Silver and Black. It is quite clear and easy to use. The smaller model [[Denon DCD-520AE]] also has it.
 
The equipment was tuned like others of the AE-series for the European market musical-soundwise - Denon refers several times to it.
 
* The design of the Denon DCD-720 AE matches exactly the design of the amplifier [[Denon PMA-720 AE]] and the network player [[Denon DNP-720 AE]] sold at the same time.
