Apex's affordable PD-100 features a compact, 5.8-inch widescreen (16:9 aspect ratio) LCD, a built-in speaker for headphone-free listening, and compatibility with DVD-Video, VCD/SVCD, audio CD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3-encoded discs. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output (through a .125-inch minijack-to-Toslink optical cable, which is not supplied) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.S-video and composite-video outputs simplify hookup with a home TV. If you don't have a surround receiver or six-channel speaker setup, you can still make every movie night the ultimate experience: 3D Virtual Surround Sound simulates surround sound through two speakers or headphones. Playback options include frame-by-frame slow motion, zoom, screen saver, multiple angle viewing (with applicable discs), and programmable track sequencing.
