Rating: Summary: Didn't find it up to standards... Review: ...I have to say I'm pleased with this unit is and under statement...it's sleek and a handsome unit. The remote (which lets face it...to us guys will be held more then our spouses) is comfortable and easy to read (again for us guys) and easy to use (a major plus) and handles the unit great. The picture is nothing less then Fantastic with a 'THEATER POSITION' buyton on the remote to change the visual settings and it does a great job of setting he mood for some pictures...you don't want Shrek and Hannibal on the same playing field. Then you have the sound quailty which again is top notch, and also has different settings called '3D PHONICS' which emulates a home theater sound on a 2 speaker TV...and it too works quite well. Overall if you are looking to buy and you can skip past the savings of a APEX, MINTECH, or any of the other cheaper brands, pony up a little extra and spend it on a unit that will last you years to come. So all in all Great Unit that screams for a Home Theater System....and you wont regret spending the extra ($) on. Thanks!

Rating: Summary: A Good DVD Player Review: I Bought this for my husband as a gift. The sound quality of the DVDs outstanding, especiallly when hooked up to a surround sound system. (CDs sound great, too.) A very lightweight, compact unit. I chose the gold finish, and it's very attractive. I've only had one problem with the player...During a movie the player has paused for maybe 1/2 a second then resumed play. This doesn't really make a big difference in the movie viewing experience, but for the price I paid, I was disappointed that this would happen.

Rating: Summary: Pure JUNK Review: I had this piece of junk for three months and it wouldn't work. I took it to the local authrorized repair shop and they told me it would cost $... to be fixed, it needed a new lazer. Labor not included in warrantee. Got it home still didn't work. Contacted JVC who gave me a secret reset code to fix the problem. STILL DOESN'T WORK. Ended up cost me $... for a piece of junk. ...
Rating: Summary: The best buy for the Money Review: I purchased this player and, once i got it hooked up, found that its picture is dazzling. There are only two problems. One is that my TV is only cable ready and needed an RF modulator. About $32.00 including tax. the other problem is my husband wants to wrap it up and put it back under the tree. This is certainly not a low end player and, while it doesn't have all the bells, buttons, and whistle of a high end player, it is great for someone who enjoys watching movies and an excellent picture.

Rating: Summary: Nice unit, but mine broke after less than a year Review: I really liked this unit when I purchased it. Especially with all of the different formats that it will read. However, in the last month or so, the unit has begun to freeze at random points on almost any DVD I use. The only way to "un-freeze" it is to literally unplug the unit. This usually occurs 30 minutes to an hour into the DVD. I originally though it may have to do with the heat generated by the unit and the rest of the A/V equipment, but even after I moved it out of the cabinet and into a well ventilated area, it still freezes. The unit did not seem warm to the touch either. I used to be a diehard JVC fan, but after this issue and issues I had with my JVC A/V receiver, I have switched to Onkyo and Sony. Good luck!
Rating: Summary: Good Buy Review: I received this as a birthday present and can actually say that this works great! I've tried all my DVDs and found no problems with it. Sharp, bright and clear pictures is all I can say about this. Playing CDs was no problem. I read every CD with no glitches. Would actually buy this if it wasn't given to me.
Rating: Summary: Didn't find it up to standards... Review: I'm returning mine because of two reasons: 1. There is a very slight pause when playing movies. It's only about 1/2 to 1 second, but it's annoying. 2. (this is why I'm returning it) after I used the 60x fast forward, then hit play, it played just faster than normal. It worked ok when I turned the unit off then on again. Problem is that I shouldn't have to do this. Yes, these are minor things, but these are the things I wish I would have known before I dropped 2 bills for it.
