Merely seeing and touching its crisply technical good looks and its beautiful, eye-catching profile tells you that the DPS-8.3 is no ordinary player. Pick it up and you'll be astonished by the weight of this substantial component—it tips the scale at more than 11 pounds, tangible evidence of its superior construction.

The magic begins by being able to store (as compressed MP3 or in uncompressed PCM format) 80GB of music on the built-in hard drive—that’s more than 1400 CDs worth of your favorite music! You can store entire CDs or single tracks faster than real time recording. Once stored on the NAS-2.3, you’ll be able to sort and select music by artist, album, musical genre or by creating your own custom play lists. CD text information is automatically read, stored and displayed by the system. An Ethernet port lets you connect to a PC to transfer MP3 files and store and sort them as well. Once stored, multiple users on your network will be able to access the complete collection of music from multiple locations. And powerful XiVA software allows you to tap into the power of the Internet. By accessing a “portal” users can view biographies on their favorite artists, purchase CDs, concert tickets and more. The possibilities are endless.
Power up and operate your entire system or a specific component with the touch of a button. The large, dynamic liquid crystal touch-screen display and 2MB of internal memory let you arrange — and rearrange — the button layout and button functions. Customizable templates and editable macros make it simple to create a controller that matches your individual needs. To create more complex touch-screen designs and macros, CHAD can be connected to a personal computer. Software upgrades are available for download directly into your CHAD. For even more flexibility, CHAD is RF capable. With the optional receiver, you don't even have to be in the same room as the equipment to operate your system. The RF signal travels through walls, floors and cabinets, allowing the user the freedom to move around in their environment. CHAD comes pre-programmed and can be configured to operate components from over 500 different brands. Adding even more convenience, backlighting allows easy visibility in dark rooms, and direct access buttons create shortcuts to frequently used functions.
