If like me, you're not techno-wise, then this could be one of the best-buy DVD players you could ever purchase.
I bought this DVD player over 2 months ago as part of a Sony TV package, and for a first-buy DVD, it turned out to be very good. Like most consumers, my main concerns were reliability, specs. / features and value for money - and it scores high on all three! Sony got it right with this budget DVD player. Don't be fooled by the price - this player will impress you!
Some specifications:
Slim entry DVD player Playback modes: DVD Video, DVD - RW /+ RW, DVD - R / +R, SVCD, VCD, Audio CD, MP3 and JPEG
- Plus much, much more...
This player is easy to install, so don't be put off by the amount of instructions in the manual. The remote control is relatively easy to operate and comes with batteries supplied.
It's advisable to connect this player with a Sony TV in order to gain the maximum benefits. All in all, this model demonstrates that when manufacturers decide to construct a worthy piece of equipment at an affordable price, it can be done. (This player can be purchased from a starting price of £49.99 up to as much as £79.99.)
Just a note on the downside: Sony do not supply scart cables with any of their equipment.
2007 Update:
It's been over 2 years now and the player is still going strong. The only let down I have encountered is that it cannot play Region 1 (NTSC) DVDs - even though it claims to be Multi-Region. So if you purchase any DVDs from the U.S. (as I did, thinking that they will be okay because of the NTSC) make sure that they are Region 2 as they will not play on this player.
