Review: I was able to get the Sony DVP-NS77H for $42 as a product substitution at Frys. But I am selling it now and here is why.

I have a 50-inch 1080p-compatible plasma TV and already have a very good DVD player with 1080p output over HDMI and...

Review: So, you just bought a new HDTV. Odds are these days it's a big one and has a great looking picture. High Def video probably looks awesome. I know, I know me too. I can't believe I can actually see the reflection from the top of Eli Manning's helmet...

Review:

Warning!
I'd like to start this by saying I'm not a TV techie. However, when I went to Best Buy and saw this Sony "HDMI - High Definition Multimedia Interface" DVD player, I mistakenly thought I was buying a DVD player that would play...

The Bottom Line: Go with Sony when it comes to dvd players. I've used different brands but Sony stands out.

Review: Before I bought this upconversion sony, I owned the previous progressive version. I was impressed even with the 480p progressive dvd player when using rgb component cables. I knew sony did such a great job with the 480p dvd player so I decided to...

Pros: Upscale is Good, Sound is Good

Cons: Not quite HD, But close.

Review: Bought one for my parents and one for myself. Amazing picture and sound with HDMI. Good choice in waiting for the HD-WAR.
