Hey all,
I'm beginning a search for a new DVD player, and am looking for both advice regarding what options I should be considering, as well as outright "buy this" recommendations. Currently I have a relatively old progressive scan Toshiba that's starting to show signs of dying. Please excuse my naive questions, I haven't been paying too close attention to this for awhile, so I'm a little out of touch.
I have a Sony KDF-55XS955, with a 5.1 surround system with Axiom speakers, an SVS pb 12 + sub and an onkyo receiver. I likely will not be upgrading this in the near future, and want a DVD player that supports my system about as well as possible. I'd also like the DVD player to be able to play music... is that a bad idea or would I be better off getting separate DVD and CD players?
I've noticed you don't seem to be able to get the really high end DVD players in multi-disk... why is that? What advantages are you sacrificing going with a 5 disk changer?
Finally, I think my budget is about $500... but if that's crazy, I may be convinced to save longer and buy something nicer...
Thanks for your help... this forum's been great to me so far!
