Denon Celebrates 100 Years Of Passion For Audio
One of the world's leading manufacturers of high quality professional audio, DJ and home entertainment products, is proud to announce a unique jubilee. This year marks the 100th anniversary of Denon - 100 years filled with 'firsts'. Throughout that 100 years, Denon has innovated and brought passion, artistry and the best technologies to professional and consumer customers around the world; providing them with the best products for the widest range of professional applications, and the best in-home entertainment experience, respectively.
Throughout a century of innovation, Denon has built a strong 'Legacy of Firsts', including the first professional disc recorder (1939), the first sales of stereo records and stereo systems in Japan (1951), and the first PCM recorder invented by Denon in 1970 – the basis of today's CD format. In 1982 Denon introduced the first consumer use CD player (the DCD-2000), another historical 'first'. With the advent of home theatre technologies, Denon became the first company to release a home cinema component supporting Dolby Digital decoding for replaying multi-channel audio content.
Underlying this Legacy of Firsts are three constants that define and differentiate Denon historically, and are also a promise for the future: passion, artistry and technology.
Hirofumi Ichikawa, President Denon Brand Company commented: "Denon has not only maintained focus through these years, but continues to be a driving force that helps revolutionise our industry. Our innovations have led to the development of entirely new product categories, with new ways of enjoying not only music but movies as well, and offering the best solutions for professional applications and quality home entertainment. All of this with one simple and unwavering philosophy: to deliver exactly what the original artist intended, with a superior audio and video experience."
