Oritron DVD600 DVD Player
Excellent value
As my introduction to DVD's, I got this player for Christmas.  After reading some of the reviews posted here, I just feel that I had to put in a good woord for this player.  I find it hard to believe that I managed to get the only GOOD one of these players out there..  <br />I have been VERY pleased with the DVD600.  Connecting it to my television and audio system was easy.  I have NOT experienced the problems I have heard others talk about with stuck disks or disks that would not play.  It has an excellent output for both video and audio.  I did notice, however, that unless you have really good cables, you may experience your picture going from dark to light.  Once I replaced the cheap cables I was using (which may have even been old audio cables) the problem went away.   While I don't have an extensive DVD collection, so far, every DVD I have played has worked flawlessly.  From the Matrix to the Cell to Charlie's Angels, each one worked without a hitch.<br />The bottom line is that from my experience, this is an excellent player if you are on a budget or to use as a secondary unit, kids room, etc..
