The Denon DVD-2910 and the Denon DVD-3910 have both gotten excellent reviews by a number of magazines, as well as independent review groups. I bought the 3910 last spring after a LOT of looking at universal players, and I have been VERY pleased with both its audio and video performance. I paid $1050 (about 30% off MSRP). The 2910 retails for about $700, but can sometimes be purchased for around $500. If you would like the name and contact info for the source where I bought my 3910, please drop me a personal note and I'll be glad to assist.
Universal DVD player for HT, SACD and DVD-A
Wondering what players are musical enough to do well by SACD and DVD-A discs, but also provide great picture quality. I have a separate 2-channel system for redbook CDs so the player doesn't have to excel at that! I have no DVD-A or SACD discs, but would like to discover this media, so need to replace my cheapo Sony player.
The HDTV I have right now (a Toshiba 46H83 rear projection unit) does not have a HDMI connection, just one DVI and some component video connections. In order to somewhat future proof the DVD player (I know, there is no such thing) I would like it to have both a DVI and HDMI connection. I also need an optical connection for audio to my receiver.
Any such beast out there? My budget is about $500, but I could swing a bit more if the player is considered worth it.
