Which Sony dvd playr is a good CD playr

The Pioneer DV-05, while not progressive scan, is still a great DVD player with very good CD play back as long as you use an active preamp. It will output the full 24/96 signal when properly set up thru the menu. Best of all you can score one on the net for around $400. Good luck

Although not a Sony (which I have previously owned), I can recommend the Pioneer Elite DV-37 as a very good DVD and CD player. I am very impressed with both the video and audio quality. My DV-37 was a replacement for both my older Sony DVD player and my Rega Planet CD player. The DV-37 can be purchased new for around $700, and it's an excellent choice at that price.

Proacman, audio is important for DVD-V too--be it listening to movies or concert videos. I can tell the difference in between my Sony DVP-300 (which cost me $500 2 years ago) and my S9000ES. Most noticable is the bass, but the 9000 is more dynamic and clean. Listening to Hell Freezes Over, James Taylor, and Fleetwood Macs' The Dance was a new experience. I won't recommend a cheap DVD player to anyone who cares about audio.
