A new entrant to the Blu-ray player field, Cambridge Audio’s first BD machine is pretty high-end. Apparently the white-painted gizmo is all about matching “the original studio masters” in audio quality with Dolby TrueHD and DTS HR surround, and in video quality with 24 fps progressive scan True Cinema, which “allows films to be watched as the director intended at their original frame rate” if you’re into that sort of thing. It also upscales DVD-resolution video to 1080p, and the back of the machine is going to be pretty crowded with analogue video outputs, HDMI 1.3 outputs, ethernet, SPDIF, Toslink and separate 7.1 and stereo analogue outs. There’s no word on pricing but it’s expected Spring 2009. Press release below.
