RCA DRC220N DVD Player
superb little player
Having just moved into our new apartment, we were looking to furnish the place with all the gadgets and gizmos anyone could want, while also on a budget. We needed a DVD player. So off we went to Wal-Mart. <br />Wal-Mart prices on the electrical items are hard to beat, so we were really pleased when we found this little beauty in the store. Being originally from England, i had never heard of RCA before though my wife tells me that they are a very good make, so i took her word for it and brought the DVD player. it has just been reduced in price from $130 to just under $100 which i thought was a really good deal. <br />First thing that struck me when i took it out of the box was it's styling. It looks a lot more like a very expensive player with its mirrored silver finish. I love the way the buttons are positioned on the player. it doesn't look to cluttered like some players do. Hooking the player up was easy! There are 3 connections on the back Composite video output; S-video output and a Component video output i chose the s-video output, because you get a much better picture quality. <br />This DVD player can play virtually any disc! it can play: DVD, DVD+RW, DVD-R, Video CD and JPEG and when it comes to music cds it can playback: CD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3. I was very impressed with the incredible versatility of this machine. <br />The sound reproduction is very high too! It can boast: Optical and coaxial Dolby Digital/DTS surround sound outputs And it has Analog stereo output it also has Virtual surround sound for 2 speakers and a headphone jack with separate volume control! <br />It has all the features of the bigger players! 2x and 4x zoom, English, French and Spanish on screen displays, parental locks, so you can stop you kids from seeing stuff they do no need to be seeing, a built in screen saver to stop any image burning into your screen (very handy for those with projection televisions) and the remote control will also operate your GE and RCA television sets.The remote also comes with 2AA batteries and a you also get your video cable so it is ready to go straight from the box. <br />The player is very quiet when it is operating, and it does everything you tell it too very quickly. I have yet to have a DVD that refuses to play or a DVD that jumps on this player yet. You will love this player if you buy it. Do not be fooled by the price
