Strength:
Compeditive price, quiet, it's a kenwood
Weakness:
No zoom, no digital coax connection I bought this player in june after reviewing alot of different players. I was ready to buy the DV-303 but had a hard time finding one. This is the replacement for the 303 and so far I am very happy with it. For some reason they did away with the digital coax connection for audio. Your only choices are fiber optic or analog. This wasnt a problem for me since my reciever has a fiber optic input and the player comes with a TosLink cable. So far I have only had 2 problems with playing dvd's but they were very dirty and scratched rentals which played fine after cleaning them. It even played a beat up rental of The Matrix with no problems. Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
Great Audio and Video. It has all of the options you need, and none of the ones you don't.
Weakness:
The description is wrong, it only has optical out, not coax. The "coax" jack is actually a subwoofer preout. I love this player. It's small, it looks cool, and it does an excelent job. Plus it came with its own optical cable. Other options not in its description include: 2 dimmer settings; subwoofer preout; a display that shows how many audio channels the media is producing; a night-time listening mode; and several TV settings. If you have a receiver with digital optical in, then you will want this DVD player. If your receiver only has digital coax in, then find another player because it doesn't have coax out. DVD players are a must, and this one is a great buy! Similar Products Used: Kenwood VR-407 (A/V Receiver) w/Dolby-Digital/DTS decoding. |

ITS A DVD PLAYER, you can listen to cd's on dts(with some recievers) picture, sound, apperance!!!!!
Weakness:
the remote is not adiquite for my needs(i dont really care i have many universal remotes) Everyone if you have not seen what the picture looks like on this, you are really(REALLY) missing out. The picture is about the same as one of the FAR more expensive models($800 even) the sound is really good too. I sat down in front of the HTB-503DV at the store and imediatly the quality blew me away. I have seen many of the semi cheaper dvd players (second fav. is the apex ####) but i must suggest this one.
