Samsung DVD611 DVD Player
Sophisticated features at a rational price
I am very pleased with my Samsung DVD-611.  I have previously owned the Samsung DVD-709 which performed admirably.  I own CDV's from Asia. The Samsung products output the PAL encoded signal from these disks with a good  quality NTSC signal. I had tried playing these disks on the Philips DVD  players, but Philips DVD players always output a PAL signal when the input  source is PAL which, will does not sync correctly or produce correct colors  on the American NTSC televisions.  The Samsung DVD-611 is future proofed  with DTS outputs.  The component outputs include coaxial and optical. The  remote is sophisticated yet simple to operate.  The mechanism on the  Samsung DVD-611 operates quietly. The Samsung DVD-611 includes  sophisticated features like 2X and 4X video zoom and multiple levels of  fast and slow motion.  There is no need to pay more for a high quality DVD  player.
