ESOTERIC’S Elegance Series Model UZ-1, visualizes the excellence of the technology inside. A new accuracy in engineering, machining and manufacturing is implemented, providing superior product for the consumer who demands exceptional quality. New video scaling technology allows output of high definition ("HD"), signal resolutions at 720p and 1080i from your existing DVD collection without having to buy new software.  Simple operational controls and a comfortable size dimension (3 inch height), transform the performance of high end audio video into a simple and new approach, without any sacrifice in system performance. Among other innovations, the UZ-1 includes Esoteric's new vertically aligned optical stability platform ("VOSP"), and disc clamp mechanism, insuring that signals are read with the highest level of accuracy. Furthermore, all discs are read with Esoteric's "X-3" series horizontal sled and optical tracking assembly, eliminating the need for off axis error correction. This results in superior playback capability.
