Panasonic DVD-F65K Super Slim 5-Disc DVD Player
Replaces two components
I previously had a Sony 5-disc DVD changer which did not play CD-R.  So I had to keep my old CD player.  The DVD-F65S replaces both of these components and is slimmer than either.  Plus picture quality is far superior.  <br />-Likes<BR>I like the progressive scan output on my HD-ready TV.  The picture has an almost 3D quality to it.  I noticed an immediate difference compared to my Sony player which was no slouch itself.  The sound quality is excellent, though I think this has more to do with my receiver.  I like the feature set and the ability to play my burned VCD's and MP3's.  Plus the price is incredible for what you get.  The best deal on a progressive scan DVD changer bar none.<br />-Dislikes<BR>I would prefer to have access to all controls on the unit itself as opposed to on the remote only.  I think all players should have menu access available on the player in case you can't find the remote.  The buttons that are on the player are quite small and feel flimsy.  The display is almost useless from my regular viewing position.  Thankfully there is an onscreen display if needed.  The owners manual does a poor job of explaining some of the unique features of the player.  Finally I would have liked to have a remote that could control the volume of my TV and/or receiver.  But for a list price of $ (I paid [less $] including tax & shipping) it is hard to really fault this player.<br />Note that the editorial review has a couple of errors.  The DVD-F65S does not include Depth Enhancer or Bass Plus (It has no other audio outs except for the stereo analog and optical).  But it does include the Cinema modes and Dialogue enhancer which I feel are more important and useful.
