The Sony DVP-PR30 Is My Little Black Box

Advantages: Neat, Stylish and Performs Well.
Disadvantages: Quite basic but it works well.

Sony Persona DVP-PR30 is a Compact DVD Player in black. It is a neat little DVD Player with excellent performance, it has a Precision Drive 3 Mechanism for fast, stable and accurate playback. The playback has always been clear audibly and swift. There are many features to the Sony Persona DVP-PR30 including; Playback of DVD-RW/-R /-R DL (VR mode w/o CPRM), Playback of JPEG, mp3, Audio CD-R/RW, Super VCD discs, DivX Playback and Fast / Slow Playback ...
...just 2.3 Kg. The Sony Persona DVP-PR30 was released in 2008 and is still relatively new to the market. Initially I bought this for my bedroom to work alongside my new wide-screen television set. It is lightweight but well made so the remote is easy to use with my TV. I loved the way it was so neat and compact it takes up hardly any room. This is ideal for a bedroom or smaller sized room and if you haven't got much space then this is a fantastic ...

Nice, Slim and styling

Advantages: A lot of functions, HD TV, Dolby surround sound
Disadvantages: Need a good amplifier for the Dolby surround sound.

I have no Idea how they did it but they did it. All of the most wanted functions were fit into this slim magic box. This DVD player contains a good number of interesting Functions the really do their work. The player itself doesn't take much space at all. And a wide range of supporting format lets you to push the most out of it. HD Line out will surprise you by it's extreme quality and the sound spreading system will leave some pleasant memories ...

An excellent piece of kit

Advantages: Fantastic quality picture, easy setup, great looking player, upscaling, value for money
Disadvantages: None

This dvd player is a fantastic piece of kit which looks fantastic. The player was very simple to setup for my LCD HD Ready tv as all I had to do was plug the player into the power socket and plug the HDMI cable into the tv and the other end in the DVD player and all was ready to go. The player is an upscaling player which means that your standard dvd's will be much brighter and crisper than when you play them on a standard dvd player. The player ...
...weighs no more than the standard players on the market and when I first switched this on and inserted my dvd I was impressed by how quiet running the player was as well as how bright the picture was (my previous player was a Bush with upscaling which I was impressed with but this blew that out of the water). This is a fantastic piece of kit which is packed full of features as well as having the standard features work perfectly (fast forward, chapter ...

It does exactly what it says on the tin... my sonny

Advantages: Cheap, easy to use and nice looking
Disadvantages: none to speak of for the price

...player I came across this Sony DVP, which, according to what I was reading about it, could handle the many formats which my kids wanted, nay, needed, to have. During my search I found the same DVD player being sold at several different shops, both on line and on the high street, with a few quite similar price tags… * £39.19 from Tesco * £35.00 from amazon * £39.99 from Argos. So, as I had promised to replace the ’dodgy’ DVD player as soon as ...
...and the back of the Sony DVD player. The television screen burst into life as the two machines connected, the on screen instructions asking me which language I wanted, what screen ratio I desired and some other rather simple questions, each being answered by pressing the ‘enter’ button. That was it, the DVD player was now set up and running so my kids could watch their favourite movies/music and I could have a bit of piece and quiet. ** THE ...

Sony DVP-NS38B - good cheap multiregion DVD player

Advantages: Cheap, Multiregion, Works well
Disadvantages: A bit complicated!

...finally died, I bought the Sony DVP-NS38 B as its replacement for approximately £60. My requirements for a DVD player were extremely basic: I wanted an entry level multi-region DVD player. So I headed off to my local Richer Sounds and had a look at the two or three that satisfied my requirements and didn't look too flimsy and picked the one that they happened to have in stock. According to the manual, as well as commercial DVDs, this model supports ...
...Music CD and CD-RW/-R. The DVD player is very thin, meaning that not many buttons or controls fit on it, and the LED display is very small and does not contain a lot of information. In terms of outputs - it has a digital audio coax and a SCART socket. On the front of the case there are the following buttons: standby, open/close, play and stop. With the number of DVDs that require menu selection, the lack of up/down buttons is frustrating as it means ...
