While shopping for my first CD player, I was able to
decipher most of the technicalese on the promotional signs. One designation
had me puzzled, though, so I called over a salesperson and asked, "What
does 'hybrid pulse D/A converter' mean?" "That means", he
said, "that this machine will read the digital information that is
encoded on CDs and convert it into an audio signal - that is, into
music." "In other words this CD player plays CDs."
"Exactly."
