Apex AD-2500 Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Cheap Junk &amp; Great DVD Player at the same time
OK, so when you pick it up it feels like an empty tin box...  completely cheapo feel to it -- but it works GREAT! it plays all the DVDs I rent from blockbuster regardless of fingerprints or minor scratches (way better than my expensive Sony DVD that freaks if there's a slight smudge)...  Also, on the &quot;el cheapo&quot; end of things, it makes a reasonably loud revving/tracking noise when its switching between the main menu screen and the sub menus (kind of like the sound your computer makes when you put a CD in it for the first few seconds)...  the noise doesn't occur during movie playback (or pause/ff/rw) so this isn't really an issue -- it just adds to the cheapo feel of it -- BUT in the end, I'd highy recommend this or the Apex 2600 for a cheap DVD player...
