Sony DVPNS725P Progressive-Scan DVD/CD Player
Sony DVP-NS725P  CD/DVD Player
PROS: Good sound and very good progressive scan output.<br />CONS: None.<br />Recently, my old high end DVD unit quit working.  As a short term solution, I purchased the Sony DVP-NS725P player in order to have time to research and purchase another high end DVD unit.  I was very pleasantly surprised of the picture quality of this Sony DVD player.  The Sony progressive scan output works very well to display a lot of picture detail without aliasing: the progressive scan picture quality is amazing.  Sony did a very good job here.  I've owned the Sony DVD player for about two weeks now and everything that I have played on this unit so far looks wonderful.  The Movie \\"Forrest Gump\\" plays incredible well on the Sony DVP-NS725P DVD Player.  The Remote control buttons that I normally use are very good size (Power, Play, Stop, Pause, Left arrow, Right arrow, Up arrow, Down arrow and Enter).  The other buttons that I don't use very often are smaller which is not a problem.  The remote fits easily in my hand and works well without any problems.  The first time that the Sony DVD player is turned ON, a Setup configuration screen is displayed and within a minute the owner can easily Setup the DVD player and start using the player.<br />A partial list of the components used in the test:<BR>Sony DVD Player Model DVP-NS725P<BR>Monster Power AVS 2000  Automatic Voltage Stablizer<BR>Monster Power HTS 2000 Power conditioner (Targeted for an upgrade soon)<BR>MonsterVideo3 component cables<BR>Mitsubishi 65 inch Platnium Plus Television Model WS-65857
