Zenith DVB216 Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Bad experience
After shopping for a progressive scan player, I decided to upgrade my Panasonic to the Zenith DVB216. My hardware inlcudes a Philips 50\\" HDTV and Pioneer receiver. I might have received a defective player because I swear my old player outdid this player in terms of resolution and clarity. The output wasn't that impressive and the sound wasn't that great either (I used the optical output for both players). Appearance wise, I don't really care much of, but I notice the remote looks really cheap and the buttons on the unit are way too small (reminds me of my Dad's old 80's style stereo component buttons), ergonomics is non-existent.  I returned the item and went back to my old one for now. Next time I'm picking up a Pioneer progressive scan, even though it costs a little more. You do get what you pay for when it comes to electronics...
