Panasonic DVD-RV32K DVD Player, Black
Excellent Versatile DVD Player w/ Great Acoustics
I bought this DVD player b/c of 2 reasons, it could read just about any format...and it also had an output for a digital optical cable (TOSLink connection).  My home theater system receiver also has a digital optical input for my dvd player.  Once I connected this dvd player to the system with a fiber optical cable, the quality of the sound and the surround effect coming out of the home theater system increased dramatically!<br />The audio quality coming from this dvd player is spectacular...even when I play plain old cd's on it.  The video quality is fine but I do notice that it has the typical dvd player \\"slight pause\\" on some scenes.  This is typical of dvd players but it does seem to occur less frequently with this dvd player vs. my old Toshiba dvd player.<br />I also like the fact that this unit is not as deep as my old Toshiba.  It seems like these dvd players are getting more compact these days.<br />I have read some negatives about the remote control...I don't really have any problems with the remote control at all.  For this price and a rebate, it is hardly something to complain about.  This player is really a great value!
