Strength:
- Sound: crisp, solid bass and deep sound stage. - Picture quality - Simplicity - A/V Composite Input (for pass through)
Weakness:
- Some Surround options are not very good with a 2.0 Dolby Digital sound track (the Standard simulation is good). The true stereo sound's better (well balanced and better sound stage) I'm an owner of a middle hifi system and this DVD player gives a very good sound. I’m not ready to invest for complete 5.1 or 6.1 home theatre. This DVD player meets my expectations: I keep my hifi system and in stereo mode, this player gives and deep sound stage for that price. The interface is simple. And finally, the picture is very good. The VCR bypass is very useful to pass-through the VCR signal through the DVD. Similar Products Used: Panasonic RV-32K |

Strength:
Good value for price. Plays MP3s, VCD, CDR/RW. Nice MP3 menu. Virtual Suround sounds great. Good sound and picture quality.
Weakness:
No randomize function for MP3, no Zoom. Screen saver is boring. So far I am very impressed with this player. I shopped around extensively for a very long time, and eventually settled on this Sony because of excellent value for price. It has all the major features you could expect from a mid range DVD player, plays almost anything and does it very well. On my TV the images are sharp and crisp. I don't have a major surround sound system yet, but the virtual surround feature knocked my socks of. It's much better than I ever expected! It's recommended that you at least use your hi-fi for this... normal TV speakers won't cut it. All discs I have tried plays without a single glitch, they load fast and also jump to scenes/menus very fast. I like the mp3 menu although a random function for mp3s would be great... The remote is well laid out and easy to use. All in all a great player at a good price. Hope I will still have years of great entertainment from this machine! :) Similar Products Used: Samsung DVD-Rom |
