Bottom Line: ive had this dvd for a long time now and it has some good and bad points .
firstly dvds play great and the sound is sharp . as you know the quality of rental dvds isnt always exeptional and unfortunately the dv 4000 is very sensitive to scratches , smudges etc .
layer change takes forever compared to other dv players .
tray takes some time to open and close but thats not a problem .
it has a fiber optic connection which most dvd dont have to connect to an amplifier .
copied dvds although supported will give u a hard time watching it and listening too ! avoid at all costs .
works beautifully with my marantz amplifier , bose 5.1 and powered subwoofer .
the design is tuff and looks good too .

Bottom Line: I purchased this unit from Ubid to run as a high end CD player. I looked at Rotel, NAD, and Adcom. For the price of 159 this unit simply can not be beat. The depth of the music is amazing. May lack a bit on the low end but with my system it still sounds great (Adcom Amp, Forte Class A Pre Amp, Paradigm reference 20). But with confidence under $200

Bottom Line: I first tried the Pioneer DV626D after good reviews in magazines. But when I installed it, I was very disappointed by the very noisy mechanism when reading DVDs. I came back to the store and exchange it with a Marantz DV4000, the only DVD player absolutely silent (Pioneer, Panasonic or Philips DVD player are really noisy compare to this one).
This DVD player is really great:
- Even the night with absolutely no noise, you can't hear the tray mechanism when reading DVD.
- This plyer really look fine with this quiet hifi look.
- The sound and image are very good.
- all kind of CDs or DVDs are read (CDR, CDRW, audio DVD, etc.).
There are only 2 minor bad things about this player:
- The mechanism is really slow (5 seconds to open the tray and 1 or 2 to start to read, for example) but you only do it once when you want to see a DVD.
- You have to point exactly the remote to the direction of the player (but in general, there is no obstacle between you and the player).
If you are very sensitive to the noise of the mechanism (like me), and you want a very good player (especially for the sound, but the image is really sharp too), do not hesitate, this is the good choice.

Bottom Line: This machine is my first venture into DVD, the selling points i was looking for was brand name and good picture quality. The other point was the ability to be decoded for multi region without delving inside the machine. I have purchased region 1 and 2 discs and both play exceptionaly well. The price paid was £370 which i didn't think was bad for the quality of picture and brand name.
