Magnavox DVD/VCR Dual Deck, MWD2206
Affordable, basic, gets the job done
I have a sister version of this DVD/VCR combo (MWD2205), but i do not find it here at amazon yet.  However, this is a very close modle, if not a mis-labeled 2205 (looks identical).  The going price new at a large discount chain (where this was purchased) is 69.87.  Online, I have seen as low as 62.00 new.  This has sparse information on the net, and Magnavox does not have it on their website yet.  Let me give you the skinny on this player.       So far so good.  It works well with my older very basic tv.  I am using the coax cable in, with no disintigration in the picture, no RF modulator needed.      Features:  Non-progressive scan DVD player, 4 head VCR with stereo out on back, mono inputs on the front.  This has out connections for AV (stereo and video combined DVD/VCR) Second set dvd only out AV, and Digital Coaxial out DVD.  Also has S-Video output and Component output.  This does not have optical sound out.      DVD playback: great quality and sound, Video playback, excellent.  Set up-very easy connection, easy to use remote and channel programing.     Downfalls: no optical out, non-progressive scan, mono front input.    Rating:  5out of 5 for value, this would make an excellent 2nd or third unit in a rec room, basement/bedroom, or for an RV or guest room.  Also, it is simple enough to use that even folks that don't like fancy electronics cand be happy.  I will likely purchase a second one for my mother.      Hopefully, these live up to the magnavox/phillips quality I've known before, and I have many good years of use out of this.      Update 7/29/2007:  I have bought two of these for gifts over the past year, and all are working great, along with my original one.  Excellent units for folks that just like to watch movies.
