Comments[edit]
- 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.
