Rating: Summary: Slim yet powerful performer Review: This replaced an aged Sony DVD player which lacked DVD-R or MP-3 playback. Got this at an attractive price and even got free shipping. Performs quite well although navigating the on screen is a tad less intuitive than on the older model. It also takes a bit loinger to detect the disc type, perhaps essential to good playback. No 5.1 analog connections as I had before, just optical so until I can get the correct optical cable (didn't need this before) I cannot take advantage of the built-in DTS capabilities.
Nevertheless, I can recommend this wholeheartedly! If you burn any of your own discs, this will keep you happy!
Rating: Summary: It's too loud. What? I said it's too loud. What? Review: This seems to be an uncommon complaint, but I have found it in a few places and wanted to reiterate it here for my fellow drive noise suffers so they know they are not crazy. I just got one of these today and the drive is loud. I mean really loud. If you want to recreate the experience of trying to watch a movie on the back of a plane this is the DVD player for you. It may only be 1 out of every 1000 players, but from the online comments I've seen, when you get a loud one, you get a loud one. And I got a loud one. It's going back tomorrow. Otherwise, I generally had the same complaints, the interface sucks and the remote is cheap and missing a few obvious buttons. It's back to the drawing board I guess.
Rating: Summary: Sony is finished. Review: This unit worked for about 1 hour. Then the drive failed. It doesn't even spin up. It's the second Sony failure for me (the first was their slv-350 dvd/vcr combo, which failed within one week of purchase) I've previously owned two other Sony dvd players which worked well and a toshiba portable which also works fine. But if my recent experience is any indication, Sony had better start making some good movies, because their consumer electronics division is going right down the toilet.
