First impressions...WOW. All I can say is WOW! I can not see anybody complaining about the build quality on this player. It is built solid and the tray mechanism operation is as smooth as silk. OK, I am waiting on a New Plasma, do not currently have component inputs on my TV, nor progressive...
Thanks to everyone for the interest. The player has been sold. For you New Yorkers and others close by, please check out the equally great deal I have on my Pioneer Elite Pro-99 51" Projection TV:

Again, thanks to everyone. Enjoy the rest...
OK, took the plunge and bought the DVD-3800 today from 6th Ave Electronics. I am in NY, but could not find anybody that had it, so I called 6th Ave in West Paterson, NJ on Route 46 and picked it up for $999.00. Going to go and set it up now and e-mail Jeff @ Denon for the Chroma Bug fix...
Package includes: Pioneer DVL-919 DVD/LD Combo Player & Star Wars Trilogy SE Box Set.
Player is like new. Comes in the original box, with remote control and all the original paperwork. Pioneer combined two great video formats into one machine. The DVL-919 plays your collection of DVD's AND...
I tend to agree that the 3800 is in a different league, at least I hope so to justify the extra expense. I too have been very disappointed in the build quality of almost anything I have looked at. The 1600 looks nice, but it still feels cheap. The lack of a coaxial input does not bother me. I am...
Which one? I know the 1600 does not have the Chroma bug, the 3800 does, but there is a fix for it. Is it worth the extra money? I will be hooking up to new Pioneer 50" Plasma (either..503CMX, 5030HD, or Pro1000-HD). Any other player suggestions?? I've been looking and reading about...
Thanks Chris!
Damn travel distance...:) It's always something. Thanks for at least letting me know.
There is also a beautiful Oak Home Theater Wall unit with two towers and a bridge that is available if and when somebody comes to look at the TV. The whole package can be had very reasonably...
Based upon some of the inquiries I have received, I need to make some clarifications and a minor correction. The TV was purchased in December, 1997 not November; therefore, the warranty is in effect until December 6, 2002.
This set is pre HD and does not have component inputs. Dispaly options...
