Pioneer DV525 DVD Player
GREAT QUALITY @ LOW PRICE
It is good to hear that people in the USA also know a good product when they see one! Here in SA I bought a Samsung DVD-Player and after about a year it let me down, BIG time!  After months of browsing I stumbled apon  the PIONEER DV525. I'm a Pioneer fan and the look of this player is typical  Pioneer design. As for picture and sound you can't beat this. Although the  remote is not backlit, it's still user friendly. I found that the sound is  best when the optical cable is used. As for brightness in picture.... (I  found it perfect), adjust your set just a bit. Sound will always depend on  your amplifier. With my setup I'm using a Pioneer amp. in Dolby Digital  mode and blasts in &quot;The Rock&quot; and &quot;Con Air&quot; had me  jumping in my seat. HAPPY VIEWING ON ANOTHER GREAT PIONEER PRODUCT!
