Panasonic DVD-S77S DVD Player
Great player even if your not yet into HD(or if you are)
Im still using a regular picture tube 32' Toshiba with component hookup I've always been a big fan of panasonic dvd players they are for sure the best players you can buy for many reasons (sound,picture,all the bells and whistles etc.) so this would have to be the best one made yet!I have had every model for about the past six years.I own five other brands none are as good as this one,easy to use ,good remote,great on screen guide and if you havnt bought a HDTV im sure you will soon(I will)and you will have one of the powerfullest players available this a 2005 model with a 216z/11Bit video processor you can tell a great diffrence even if you dont have HD yet but you can use component hookups its worth it. Sound wise it use a 192/24 processor which means you also wont find another player with better sound either. A MUST HAVE Buy It or leave your ownself short changed!     UPDATE:I have finally gotten a hold of a true HD tv the Sharp 32 inch LCD Aquas and run this player via Monster Ultra 100 HDMI able using the tv's native 720 lines of resolution (thats 720p on the dvd player menu)and I am sure as heck not let down in the least everything checks out great and the picture is better than I expected.One note people saying the upconversion causes macroblocking(little wavey things sometimes lookslike interfearence)are correct to some degree.First of all its not that bad and I am very picky when it comes to this stuff it truly doesnt botther me sometimes will go a few movies before i see any macroblocking.Second every  player that has uponversion but doesnt use this upconversion chip that suppozsedly cause the m.blocking from what i read all report bad picture and especially bad color representation thats why panasonic stuck with this upconvertion chip.So after utilizing the dvd player to its fullest via HD I just wanted to update this review, still go buy it!
