Is the Toshiba SD2700 DVD player any good for the price ?
Is there something better at the same price ??
Thanks

Here in Canada, at least, the SD2700 has been replaced by the SD2710. It's exactly the same, but drops HDCD decoding and adds MP3 capability.
It's a decent player with no major faults that I can see. Compare it with the Panasonic DVD-RV31. The RV31 has more front panel buttons, but aside from the jog/shuttle dial, the feature set is virtually identical between the two.

I'm looking for a reliable living room machine. These are the top two on my list as well. Only feature differences that I see is that Toshiba gives you zoom (some people use this?), HDCD decoding, and 24/192 DACs. Panasonic gives you MP3 and isn't supposed to suffer from the "Chroma Bug" problem like may other brands (including Toshiba) do. Rest of features are same.
I haven't decided yet.
