Strength:
Has component, composite, and s-video outputs adjustable black level. The zoom feature is very fun to play with and best of all the picture is very sharp the sound excellent.
Weakness:
Slow to load, the remote could be better - larger with backlit buttons. I'd like one of those wheel controls on all DVDs but at this price that is asking a little too much. I am in the process of setting up a new HT system and was in the mode of looking at high end DVD systems when this little gem came along for $245 - I couldn't resist and so far I haven't been disappointed. |

Strength:
Good value for entry level player. Excellent choice for direct-view televisions. Has component, composite, and s-video output. Great zoom feature. Very sharp picture. Adjustable black level.
Weakness:
Down-conversion is noticable on rear-projection televisions. Remote has small buttons and is not backlit. This is the first dvd player I've purchased. I think that it is a great value for $200 US. I'll take a few down-conversion artifacts over lip-sync problems any day. |

Strength:
Great Sound, Good Picture
Weakness:
Shatty remote, picture jitter, I bought this model from Onecall for$244 delivered FedEx 2day. Worked great until picture jitter and a part in Wild Things where it looked like it was running in slow motion! I had to box this up and return it for a new one. The fellaz at Onecall are great customer service dudes. Highly recommend going to them. I will be getting the new one soon so I will give another review later. |

Strength:
Video/audio quality
Weakness:
Downconversion of video For the money, this player is great! I understand Krogers is selling them for 199.00. I got mine last year and had to send it in for the infamous firmware fix due to audio dropouts. Since then, it has performed perfectly. I'd recommend to anyone with a 16:9 display or able to do the "squeeze trick" on their 4:3 display. Similar Products Used: none |

Well built, inexpensive, many user features.

No optical audio output, doesn't play VCD's. The best "pound-for-pound" DVD player available. Has features of many more expensive models. Can be purchased for very few $$$ online. |
