Samsung's BD-P1500 Blu-ray player allows me to upgrade and keep my DVDs, too! by alexdg1 Pros: Plays Hi-Def Blu-rays, DVDs and CDs; easy to set up and use
Cons: Blu-ray discs are pricier; players are more expensive than DVD players I wasn't really planning on getting a Blu-ray player for a while yet; I still remember both the exhilarations and frustrations of the transition from VHS to DVD only a decade ago and I really didn't want to start replacing my entire 100-title DVD library ...

Perfect for my non-HDMI Hometheater by kabyash Pros: 7.1 channel audio, component and HDMI video, plays all DVD & CD formats
Cons: Absolutely nothing The Panasonic DMP-BD55K is the perfect companion to my receiver and although the 55K has HMDI connections, my receiver does not. So why the 55K? A huge list of features including 7.1 channel analog cable ...

My daughter’s favorite portable DVD player by texas-swede Pros: 180 degree Swivel action, good sound, Electronic Skip Protection
Cons: It could be even smaller, the lid is funny We currently have three different kinds of portable DVD players. We own one pink Polaroid DPA 07046 (this one), two silvery Polaroid PDM 2727, and one Coby TF-DVD7107 Portable DVD Player. The portable DVD player concept is great. It allows you to easily ...

DVD changer has unacceptable issues by michaeljhuman Pros: Good deinterlacing from the Farodja DCDi chip
Cons: Poor onscreen menus Lip synch issues Drawer mechanism flawed Remote compatibility I bought the DVD-C950 as it was one of the few Yamaha HDMI changers available at the time. I preferred Yamaha as I wanted to avoid having to reprogram remotes for any Yamaha receiver I planned to use it with (I found out though, that I still needed ...

Numark TTX1 Turntable by xbig69benzx Pros: Value and feature packed, direct drive, excellent professional quality sound reproduction, heavy [sturdy].
Cons: Brake mechanism unrefined, flimsy tonearm pickup, possible motor reliability issues. The Numark TTX1 Turntable was not what I set out to purchase when I went looking for records and or a turntable. Having had great luck with the Panasonic [Technics] brand, I was hoping to get one of these babies, even an older used one, as I've ...

Flexible Inputs Galore, TrueHD Decoding, and a Good Price by nad_masters Pros: Many inputs, 7.1 surround, TrueHD and DTS-MA decoding, and the $300 price tag
Cons: Does not upconvert SD video sources to HDMI. Menu system can be frustrating. After winning a raffle that allowed me to pick anything from CDW's site at work (under $350), I decided to upgrade the entry-level Sony STR-DG510 receiver I purchased less than a ...

I Love LG and Everything They Stand For by Goatius Pros: Lightweight, good video and audio, plays DVD-Rs flawlessly, cool folding screen
Cons: Battery life a little short, dangerous to watch while driving I need access to movies and entertainment at all times, it seems. I can't help it. Car trips over 90 minutes, waiting rooms, long elevator rides - anymore my patience for killing time without videos or music is nil. I'm not sure what ...

Excellent Sound Quality by dadeo7432 Pros: Fantastic sound quality, easy to use, durable
Cons: Requires Music-CDRs and CD-RWs I bought this unit about three months to replace a Philips unit I bought about 6 years ago (also reviewed here). This unit has only a single cd drive, it comes without the second cd player drive. The result is that it is harder to record from one cd to ...

Good Things Come In Small Packages by reasonfaith Pros: Portability, lightweight, simple.
Cons: Too much techno packed into a tiny device. Polaroid's 7-inch portable DVD player is tiny, lightweight and easy to operate for movie watching, but can get complicated viewing JPEG photos. The screen is very small so make sure you include any optional adapters to connect with a larger monitor ...

DIVX playback on the cheap by bloodline23 Pros: Plays divx files, slim profile
Cons: Slow response time, flimsy construction, poorly designed remote Well, DVD players have finally become VCRs; you can get a DVD player for under $10 (I saw a stack of super-slim players last year on clearance for $6.99 each) and basic recorders for under $50. So unless you're getting something super fancy, you ...

Dynex has been SURPRISINGLY good to us by bablondie25 Pros: Sturdy, holds up, nice screen size, decent price.
Cons: Battery lasts about 2 hours. I was a bit worried last year around Christmastime, walking into a Best Buy and buying a Dynex. I had to check reviews before I bought because I didn't want a dud but I will say it has turned out to work just great. I mean, we all know famous brands like ...

REL-R505 Smooth and balanced, never heavy unless you want it by ekyang Pros: Fantastic for jazz and classics with a craftsman finish.
Cons: Heavy, big, not the cheapest 12" sub on the block. Just took delivery of my REL R505. It was a pristine condition 12"sub and everything I had read about the RELs boiled up to my first moment after I unpackaged the thing. For some reason, the heavier something is, the implication of higher ...

I'm Happy I Waited to get a Blu-Ray Player until I Could Get Panasonic's 35K by carstairs38 Pros: Great audio and superior picture
Cons: None About a year ago, I started wandering through electronics stores more frequently, ogling the HDTVs. Along the way, I saw the ads showing off scenes from blu-ray releases, and my jaw was always on the floor in envy. As soon as I bought my TV, ...
