Sony DVP-S530D DVD Player
Picture quality and sound of the Sony DVSP530D blows me away
Before deciding to purchase my first DVD, I did lots of homework.  I checked out the Panasonic and Toshiba lines and looked around on and off-line.  Having reached the point of having to make a decision, I checked  out this area for other consumer comments.  It was interesting to see that  although there is lots said about the audio sync problem in this model, the  clear majority of those who purchased it gave it a five star rating.  Well,  I am here to say that I can understand why!  I purchased the 530D recently  and experienced the audio sync situation once already.  But, I realized  that because of all the talk about it, I was looking for it and it turned  out not to be as noticeable as I expected and it didn't interfere with my  enjoyment of the film I was viewing.  In fact, all of the pluses way  out-weighed this little 'glitch'. Picture, color, sound, and all other  features are extraordinary.  I believe I made the right choice.
