Yes it won't play high-defintion discs, but when it does everything else to such a high standard, who says you'll miss Blu-ray that much?

Great looks, great sound, superior picture for standard def DVD to any other player at his price point and many more expensive even produces a better picture than some Bluray players do with bluray discs. The picture and sound are also better tha if...

Smart, simple to use and very flexible product. Solid and reliable build. Superb value for money.

One of the finest upscalers for standard DVDs that money can buy. Gets more detail out of DVDs than any other player in its range. Amazing sound quality. Has now played over 100 DVDs of various ages and conditions without the slightest glitsch or problem.

None, especially at this amazing price!

Easy to connect and setup. Very good sound and picture. It also looks good and when its off there are no leds saying its there, very pleasant.

Image quality is first class, as natural in depth and balance as one would wish. To have image quality this good, why should i need blu ray. Easy to set up and use, and looks a million dollars.

Sound quality with a dvd with analog outputs is first class. But can tend to be a little heavy with some CD's. But overall fine, if you dont mind that kind of sound.

Image clarity and detail. Upscaling good. Sound quality.
