 You get what you pay for September 30, 2006

Not bad for the money, aka, you get what you pay for. Disappointed in the player being slow to load DVD's (~20 seconds per, 20+ seconds to go between discs). Most disappointing is the fact that it does not play HD-DVD. It is not advertised to do so, but why build all the support for HDMI, and not support HD-DVD? My guess is, they put the wrong kind of drive in it, and thats why it won't play SA-CD's either. On the plus side, it was easy to setup, and plays scratched DVD's that our other DVD player won't.
 I really like it! November 21, 2006

This is my first foray into HDMI hook up and it is amazing how much clearer the picture is over component. Perhaps any DVD player would work as well, I don't know.
I have no lag time in the dvds loading...just a few seconds and basically the machine set itself up as nearly all the set points were done. Once I figured out the sound choices which only took a few minutes of actually reading the very helpful manual; we were in business.
Comparing prices with other players this one is quite reasonable and, for me, is doing a superb job.
Excellent Quality May 7, 2007

Installed as a CD player in a yacht and works great. Excellent sound quality. Player must have a buffer because there is no "skipping" while underway.
 Purchase a sledgehammer at the same time - you'll need it October 12, 2007

Purchased this 10/10/06 and it refuses to play any disc as of 10/9/07. The player has been well maintained and cleaned. Played well long enough to go past the warranty (funny, that). I'd rather pay more and have some decent longevity than buy one every year. I'll never buy Sony for dvd again.
 This DVD player is a disappointment November 20, 2006

I bought this player because it was supposed to be better at playing DVD+/-R/RWs, etc. It does do that except it refuses to read DL disks. The other reason I bought it is because of its HDMI connectivity and HD upscale feature. I haven't been able to get it to upscale any disks yet. There is an indicator on the front panel that says when its in HD mode. Light hasn't gone on yet. The other issue is sometimes the unit only buzzes (!!!) in response to pressing any remote button. Eventually it responds normally to remote inputs. I am disappointed with this unit in general and I'm thinking about hooking up my old DVD player again. (An older Sony 5 disk changer). I'm usually a diehard Sony buyer but I think this one is not ready for prime time.
