Sony DVP-S530D DVD Player
No complaints whatsoever here
I did plenty of research and shopping around before I settled on this player. The reasons were simple- it had the most features and the best value for the money. I am very pleased with it. I had seen plenty of the  warnings concerning lip synch problems, and I prayed I didn't get one with  that problem b/c from what I have heard Sony customer service is less than  helpful on that matter. Well I got one of the later models with the good  serial number and newer firmware and it is outstanding. These are very  popular so it is highly unlikely that you would get a defective one (it  would have had to been on the shelves since summer 99.) If you're looking  for a player in the $350-400 range this should be on your short list.  Picture and sound are excellent- has all the connections, even component  video. Also has a good decoder built in, necessary if you don't have a  receiver with one. All in all, a very good buy for the money. Any  questions, email me and I'll help you if I can.
