Any info/comments on the Philips 795sa DVD/SACD changer?
Info/comments on this player seems very hard to come by. And I'd like to find out more before taking the plunge on its bigger sibling 963sa.
I guess the key questions are:
1. Can the 795sa be hacked for region-free playback like many other Philips players?
2. Does it offer good PAL->NTSC conversion even though it doesn't have the Faroudja fli23xx chip that's in the 963sa?
3. How is the 480p PQ in general? I don't think I need top notch PQ like the 963sa, but thought I should ask anyway.
4. Can it do good aspect ratio scaling? This would be a PLUS, not a requirement.
5. How is the CD and SACD playback quality? Is it anywhere near as good as the 963sa? This is a priority since I want it more for good CD/SACD playback than good DVD-V. Already have a Panny RP91 that can be used for most DVDs, except non-R1 and PAL DVDs.
I was also considering the Sony C222ES changer, but think I'll past on that since it costs almost the same as the 963sa w/out any DVD-V support and is not necessarily better at CD/SACD either.
Thanks for any info/comments.
