    • Impressive connectivity, Wide range of audio modes, Good performance for the price
    • Annoying disc search operation

    It is very nice dark gray colour. It can read Dvix files and you never know what will my guests do, bring some original or not original dvds with them when they come or just rent few original ones so I wanted the DVD to be able to read DVIX too. We have really nice and goo tv in the apartment so when you watch movies on this DVD over that TV the sound is really great and the picture too. Read more

    • good image, high definition (1080p), good sound, easy use
    • no Real Dolby
