Vladimir: That was me that posted the following comment from an e-mail Mr. Underwood sent me, to wit: "PS, Don't buy a 5900 as the only difference over the 2900 is on the video side. They sound the same. Walter" Walter Liederman [email protected] Phone-770-667-5633...

Hi Trevor: I would be quite interested to know how it sounds once you fire it up. Did you perchance have a good listen to the stock 2900 so you have an idea of what the "pre-modified sound" is like?? Thanks, Jeff S.:)

Thanks Trevor for summing up the relative sonic merits of these 3 Denon DVD players. I think that for me it will not come down strictly to an issue of which model sounds the best (although sonics IS my main concern), but whether extra money for that $1800-$2200 2900 mod is going to be spent...

THANK YOU VLADIMIR!! You hit the nail square on the head. Trevor, we were not trying to compare fruits (apples and oranges), but DVD players. Thanks again for your astute observations and comments, Vlad my man. Jeff S.;)

Trevor & Levesque: Looks like there's no clear-cut yet as to sonic superiority of the 5900 vs. the 2900. Or at least enough improvement to justify the $1000 cost difference. Going to have to stay tuned on this one for a bit. Seems to me the $1800 some-odd dollars for the 2-channel 2900 mod...

Hi Trevor: You are correct, I am not interested in upgrades for the 2900's video performance, strictly audio. I don't presume that a 5900 would get me up to the same level as the modded 2900, but what I'm asking is would the audio of a 5900 be significantly better than a stock 2900? If not...

I checked out the Underwood mods for the 2900. For the level 1 mod the unit'll run you $1790 and with the superclock ANOTHER $450. That makes the total more than a 5900 ($240 MORE). At that sort of price for the 2900 mod, could someone tell me why one would not just get a 5900 to begin with...
