Post Subject: Denon UD-M31, what a crap!!!Posted by Romy the Cat on: 4/9/2007

I relay do not recognize music with this unit – it makes everything to sound absolutely different and very muchwrong. It hard to explain: the notes are there but they have absolutely wrong meaning. It is even funny to hear in which crap the little mini-Denon is capable to turn music into.

I would take it even further: the regular NPR news. How little it is necessary to play BBC News, the “Wait, Wait... Don't Tell Me”, the “Fresh Air” or the “A Prairie Home Companion”? Even when the Denon plays the BBC announcements then it is clearly audible that this unit does something incorrect with sound. Not in term of Hi-Fi but rather in tern of meaning… the meaning and… pleasure. The phrases and sentences with Denon are the same and it looks like nothing else is requires (for news programs) … but substituting the Denon with Melquiades/Reds it is clearly auditable that suddenly the regular BBC newscast might sound pleasant and elegant and those BBS folks with their magnificent Brits’ accent sound more like music.. With Denon is it juts radio. With better audio even a newscast becose an auditable and memorable event….
