no, they are made by zenith, or was that rca?			;-)


	couldn't resist that open end...



actually I don't know if they make the entire thing themselves.  I do know that
they use a lot of things that are very different than other players, like their
own d/a type converters, and their own transport design...

Denon is a subsidiary of Hitachi; whether you say that the Hitachi player
is made by Denon, or that the Denon player is made by Hitachi is close to
hairsplitting; I would assume that the corporation has one plant where all
players are made, whether it officially runs as a Denon or Hitachi plant should
be irrelevant.

            

256.6NEC has DenonNWD002::BROWNDASat Mar 15 1986 11:256
      WRONG !!
    
    Denon is a subsidiary of NEC same as JVC. The overwhelming percentage
    of audio equipment in recording studios, etc. in Japan is Denon.
