Pioneer DV-414 DVD Player

Summary: My pleasure for more than a year
Review: PROS: Full featured for a home theatre system (96KHz 24 bit D/A converter, Dolby Digital, DTS, optical output, component video output), nice price, EXCELLENT image and sound quality, beats other DVDs I've seen on these fields, nice face, LED panel can be turned off, lots of programming possibilities for those addicted to this (not my case, I'm confortable with viewing and hearing its quality). CONS: Remote doesn't have the best layout, may not be compatible with Pioneer's DVD R/RW. With the DV 414, Pioneer has proven that although quality has a price, it doesn't need to be above US$ 300. Bought mine on December 1999 and couldn't be happier, specially considering its price/features/performance/quality. If you like movies and are budget conscious, I can only but recommend the DV 414.

Review: You get a lot of bang for your buck with this player. If you are getting ready to take home viewing pleasure to the next level, you will not be disappointed in this player. It has all 3 video outputs,(yes component if you have the TV for it), and simple setup. All of this for $100 to $200 less than worthy competitors. This is a no brainer, can't go wrong choice.
