We bought this for our home theater, where we're using it with a ViewSonic projector and a basic surround sound system. It's excellent - great picture, easy to use, attractive styling that goes well with our other components. We've been using this for a few weeks now, and have nothing bad to say about it!

I am very impressed with the picture quality of this player. I have a very simple system (no surround-sound and a 32 inch TV) but my DVDs look great using this player.

We use it every day, it's a very good product. It's much better than Sony we previously owned and we are very satisfied with it.
I reccomend it!
