Sony DVP9000es Audio Settings


Switching back and forth between attn. on/off makes a big change in my system. I wonder if this is why the 9000 gets some bad reviews? The filter is more subtle. I am using EVS atenuators and the diffence is amazing when the units attn. setting is on.

It is not that bad, especially that Service so far is not able to repair it :) (but they will, I know :) ) so I do not have possibility to compare it with old CD any more, and do not get frustrated any more too, but unfortunately I get when I read rave posts about it knowing that there are hundreds better players IMHO.
Any other player did not get that much positive attention here (3 threads on this page!!!-why is that). And knowing how it sounds how reliable it is I'm getting frustrated and I feel I have to respond to warn others. Just my 2 cents.
Sorlowski it's nice to see that you have maintained a good sense of humor. I've only had my 9000ES for a couple of weeks and I will admit that while the Redbook comes up a little short of adequate, SACD is not bad and the DD/DTS is great.

I enjoy modifying equipment and I bought this unit for its build quality as well as the multitude of modifications that are available for it. I just can't wait to sink another $1,200 into it so I can sell it in a year for $600. :)
Pilar,
good sense of humor it is all what left to me, I just got to know that local service would be able to repair it for .... $600 (parts + work),
so a lot of peoples this days have sense of humor :) (is not this true that value of all parts constitute 1/5 of the MSRP ?, so how two parts could cost $450 + $150 work = $600)
I will try SONY service they would not repair it on warranty but at least they have flat rate $132. At least it is what I was told.
I do not understand SONY anymore!

I was trying to persuade SONY rep over the phone to repair my 9000 on warranty (I do not have invoice) to no effect, even serious talk with his supervisor did not changed a thing.
So I gave up and decided to take advantage of their flat rate ($132).
To my astonishment after living it for repair, service woman base on serial number (this is what I was asking for SONY rep by phone few times) established that unit is on warranty, she was not even interested in invoice!!!
So, summing up I have it working and did not pay for it. Why they are so inconsistent???
Tough unbending non-cooperative by phone nice understanding in person ?
