DVD player to go with Toshiba 51H83 (1 Viewer)

[Mike D.]

I'm fairly well set on the Toshiba 51H83 as my TV upgrade, now I need to pick out a DVD player to go with it.

Thinking about the Bravo to go DVI, although there is some controversy as to whether DVI does much with RPTV.

I would like to stay around $200 or less, if it is for sale at Best Buy that would be optimal.

Would like one without the chroma bug, but I can't find one that fits these criteria!

Thanks!
Mike

If you really want something that is available at Best Buy, then I would suggest you pick up the Yamaha DVS-5560. Has a better picture than anything else that they carry, and I have yet to see the chroma bug in it. I think they are selling it for somewhere around $150.

Otherwise, I would try to find a Denon DVD-900 for a good deal.

get the Pioneer 563A that does most of the formats including SACD and DVDA for around $179.

What is the chroma bug?

Doesn't look like they've reviewed that Pioneer model yet. The one Pioneer model in there gets a horrible review though. DV-434:

I'm not dead-set on the Best Buy thing (hence the Bravo thoughts), just would make spousal-acceptance factor easier...
