Strength:
Great Audio/Video and Great Price.
Weakness:
Noisy tray, Average Remote Probably one of the best DVD players for it's price range. I've played about 10 movies so far and have had no problems with it. I don't mind the tray being noisy, but the remote is slightly hard to use in the dark. For the great audio/visual quality, though, it's easy to overlook that. This is a great player. |

Tray Loud/remote is very hard to adjust in the dark! First DVD To get. Got it at a good deal from Mercata for $133. I put in for the $50.00 Rebate. Hopefully they will give it to me. Very Good Picture. Very good Sound. Running it on a Onkyo 575. Dolby Digital is Awesome! So far I have viewed the Mummy, Matrix and Some other Cheesy DVD's that I wouldn't recomend watching... All video's played excellent except the Matrix. I bought this DVD. And the Helicopter seen where the agents fire hols in it and it's going down some how the sound cut out. I don't know if it was my Onkyo or the DVD unit. I went back to the same chapter and it played perfectly. But it made me think about maybe it's some defect in the DISK or the Player... or the Onkyo. Has anyone experienced similar problems? Even tho I am not experiencing problems now with the remote and noise that it does make and the over all PLASTIC/CHEAP look to it I give it 4 stars. And only 3 stars if they don't honer my rebate! Similar Products Used: N/A |

Strength:
Great sound ,Quality and price
Weakness:
Bad menu , Ok remote Control It is a great dvd player for the price. I have watched 10 movies so far, No problems yet (touch wood). If you want dual disc and zoom feature (no use), only then I would recommend Toshiba 3109 over Pioneer. Otherwise this is an excellent Dvd player. Similar Products Used: Toshiba 3109 |
