Pioneer DVR-LX 60 D

Advantages: Mindblowing sound, Explosive picture and feature packed - at a great price. Buy it.
Disadvantages: Nothing significant at this price

...Pioneer is well respected manufacturer for top quality home cinema products, and it ranks amongst the top few manufacturers of DVD players, up there with Sony, Toshiba and Panasonic. Pioneer is well known for impeccable build quality and excellent performance and the DV-626D is a brilliant example of just what Pioneer can do. After searching though review magazines and browsing the internet, I decided the pioneer was the one to go for. Main features include onboard Dolby Digital and DTS decoders, duel laser pickup, Pal/NTSC output, Digital noise reduction, conditional memory, Virtual Dolby Surround...

As far as I know, this exact model is no longer produced but second hand ones are available for less than £60. There may well be new ones lying around, so it’s worth looking. With the continued tumbling fall of DVD players and cheaper DVD Recorders, those looking for their first player could be inundated with choices but I hope you feel you can read on.
