Toshiba SD9100 Progressive-Scan DVD Player
David, audio/videophile, Austin, Tx
Everything written about this player thus far is absolutely true (Home Theater Magazine Feb 2000). Even the comments here by Amazon are right on the mark! I have this player hooked to Toshiba's flagship HDTV 65X81  projection display w/ Tributaries Cables via their ColorStream Pro HD  Componant Inputs and the results are simply breaktaking. When using a  reference grade DVD the quality is as good as I've seen (and I researched  every brand HDTV and high-end player) before settling on Toshiba. They  continue to dominate this new digital technology. One word of caution with  progressive scan players-make sure if you have a non-Toshiba display you  check the player's compatibilty with your brand. There can be some  incompatabilty with the internal line doublers and aspect ratios (as the  Home Theater mag article points out). Just as DVD and HDTV technology are  here to stay-it seems progressive scan is a very viable way to go way to  go-especially if you want the best avaiable quality and cannot afford a  $15,000 Faroudja line doubler. Trust me-you will not be dissapointed!
