Greater Compatibility, Total Reliability HHB
Introduces New 1x-8x DVD-R Media
HHB Communications' position as a world-leading supplier of
professional recording media has now been further strengthened through the
introduction of a new range of 1X-8X speed DVD+R and DVD-R recordable discs,
offering total reliability and compatibility across an even wider range of DVD
hardware products. Whether using a professional DAW, personal computer or a
standalone DVD recorder, this latest generation of HHB recordable media provides
an even greater level of user confidence through its instant plug-and-play
compatibility with a vast array of professional and consumer DVD devices.
With consistently low block error rates and
ultra-low jitter performance, HHB DVD media has long been regarded as the first
choice for all audio, video and data applications, combining superb performance
with absolute security. The result of an ongoing research and development
program, HHB's new recordable DVD media offers even greater reliability through
the employment of a unique azo dye formulation, which guarantees complete
stability and a secure archival life in excess of 70 years.
Full metallization of the entire surface of the
disc yields a greater printable area, and allows superb color matching - even in
the hub area of the disc. Available in both inkjet and thermal-printable
versions, HHB's new DVD media delivers perfect whiteness and unrivalled printing
definition, plus compatibility with an extremely wide range of printers. Each
disc type also uses a unique spinning process to ensure a bubble-free bond
between the polycarbonate layers of the disc - resulting in perfect flatness.
The range consists of four disc types: DVD-R4.7GB-G
(single, library-packed General type disc with an inkjet-printable surface);
DVD-R4.7GB-GBulkIP (50 disc cakepack of General type discs with an
inkjet-printable surface); DVD-R4.7GB-GBulkThermal (50 disc cakepack of General
type discs with thermal-printable surface); and DVD+R4.7GB-Plus (single,
library-packed General type disc conforming to the DVD+R format, with an
inkjet-printable surface).
Like HHB's 1X-4X DVD discs - which this new range
supersedes - each of the new 1X-8X discs is registered with major DVD hardware
manufacturers, ensuring that the signal characteristics of the drive's laser are
optimized for error-free recording.
Heralding the arrival of the new DVD recordable
media products, HHB Managing Director, Ian Jones, commented, "We're delighted
that our new 1X-8X discs now offer an even greater level of compatibility with a
wide range of DVD hardware. When combined with the security and reliability that
HHB media products are renowned for, we believe that these discs represent the
only serious choice for professional audio and video applications."
HHB products are distributed exclusively in the
United States, Mexico, Central and South America and the Caribbean by Sennheiser
Electronic Corporation. It joins a list of distinguished audio brands that
Sennheiser distributes including Neumann Microphones, InnovaSON Digital
Consoles, Rosendahl Synchronization Systems, Turbosound Loudspeakers and the
