Review 1 of 14
Price Paid:
$240.00
from circuit city Summary:
Good deal for progressive scan and mp3 player I THOUGHT! After slightly over a year of use, takes about 1 minute to read a BRAND NEW cd, after 5 - 10 minutes of play that cd turns into LOUD buzzing as if dvd player is frying. Will not even attempt to play a dvd, just says NO DISC as soon as it is loaded. The player has been in one spot and never moved, never even touched except to hit play buttons. Strengths:
progressive scan, mp3, looks good Weaknesses:
after a year of use is nothing more than a pretty looking hunk of metal. spent 240 dollars on the hunk of metal Similar Products Used:
sony, panasonic, even aiwa or apex is better. Time to get a denon

Review 2 of 14
Price Paid:
$215.00
from J&R Music World Summary:
I have had this for over a year now, and it is my first DVD player. I am somewhat pleased with it, not ecststatic, tho. I don't have an HDTV so the progressive scan feature means nuthin, but it was a criteria to purchase due to near future upgrade.
Few things: The picture and sound quality are superb. I have looked at the same DVDs with other players: Sony, specifically, DVP NS 300V and some other Sony models and this is much better.
But, sometimes it gets a little 'confused' when going to and from film and menu: cursor appears on frozen movie still, no cursor appears, screen saver appears with cursor... which ain't good!
And finally it doesn't read CDs all taht well it's like 50/50 on the CD reading I haev to say. I have a separate CD player, my trusty Marantz. Strengths:
Great picture and sound, even WITHOUT prog scan! Weaknesses:
see above Similar Products Used:
Sony DVP NS 300V, other Sony

Review 3 of 14
Price Paid:
$188.00
from Best Buy Summary:
I feel the color and looks are nice. The features for the price are a deal in getting progressive scan feature. If you have an A/V receiver with Dolby and DTS, the Dolby signal pass thru is all you need. JVC made the right choices in features for a resonably priced progressive scan capable DVD. If you understand this is not top of the line progressive scan DVD with Dolby and discrete 6 channel output for the dollars you are saving, you can appreceiate the unit for what it is. DVD playback has been excellant to me, but this is a bedroom second DVD player and not using the progressive scan feature yet. Strengths:
To get progressive scan for this price. Performance picture wise has been what I would expect from DVD. Weaknesses:
None to mention. Similar Products Used:
Personal computer DVD player. JVC XV-D723GD.

Review 5 of 14
Price Paid:
$169.00
from Best Buy Summary:
Wow. I can''t believe I got a progressive scan, JVC brand player for $169.00. I recently purchased a Zenith 36 inch HDTV monitor and was ready to upgrade to progressive scan. It looks great on the few DVDs that I have tested. It also automatically senses the type of progressive mode to default to.
It also plays everything, but this is not a real big attraction for me as I only listen to mp3s on my laptop or on portable hardware.
I think the gold is cool-looking to and the on-screen menu is fairly intuitive.r Strengths:
Progressive Scan, Good Price and Brand, Plays everything, Nice-look..e Weaknesses:
You have to remember to swith the progressive mode on with the remote, but this is a slight annoyance.... Similar Products Used:
Samsung DVD--not progressive scan...It was ok, but I am definitely pleased with the upgrade to JVC Progessive Scan playerd
