    New Panasonic DVD-S55S progressive-scan DVD-Audio player: Just $130!

    A number of manufacturers list their DVD players as playing "DVD Video/Audio" even though they don't play DVD-A. It refers to the standard stereo track on the DVD and is output through a standard L-R stereo jacks. With the advent of DVD-A, it makes it confusing and I don't think anyone needs...

    New Panasonic DVD-S55S progressive-scan DVD-Audio player: Just $130!

    They probably did, but I'm pretty sure that it won't work with DVD-A. I have an RP-82, and from every indication in its manual, you would believe that the speaker size and level settings would work with DVD-A. The new S55 manual is the same. It has speaker level and size adjustments, with a...

    New Panasonic DVD-S55S progressive-scan DVD-Audio player: Just $130!

    All the new Pannys (S35, S55, F65 and F85) use the same all-in-one chip solution that handles deinterlacing, MPEG decoding and even DVD-A. If you do a search for the S35, you'll find a few threads about its video performance. While it's not bad for the price, it's not up to the quality of the...
