JVC XV-511BK DVD Player
a great buy
I recently purchased this DVD player through an online auction  and was naturally somewhat skeptical.   However I discovered that this is a great  buy. The picture quality is very sharp.  It  does a great job with audio  CDs too.  The best feature of this DVD player is definitely its  connectivity. It has both analog stereo and digital(optical) outputs as  well as an S-Video output.   It was trivial to hook this up to my existing  equipment.  However if you have an older model TV you may need to purchase  a modulator  to  convert the DVD signal. A common complaint is that this is  only a single disc player but that  hardly matters given  the  features and  overall usefulness of this unit.
