Toshiba SD-2109 DVD Player
Best Bang 4 Your Buck
Excellent quality.  Most DVD players for this price do not include a DTS decoder.  Therefore, unless you get a DVD player like this, you may have problems viewing movies such as the Matrix.  Additionally, the remove is  not complicated like many other systems are.  The only problem that I could  see is that you may need additional cables if you have an old TV that does  not have separate audio and video inputs.  However, I got around this by  connecting my DVD player to my VCR.  I am getting a A/V receiver (JVC  RX-6000VBK) for the surround effect so hopefully it pulls through for me  again.
