After searching the boards regarding the quality of the Playstation 2 as a DVD player, I have decided on getting a stand alone DVD player. Unfortunately, I have yet to win the lottery or have a rich relative kick the bucket, so I have to stay within a limited budget of ~$200.00. Thus my search has brought me to the above mentioned players. Presently, I use a Sony Wega 27" as my main TV. I have not yet purchased my receiver (Onkyo 595) or speakers. However, with that in mind, I am looking for opinions on which of the two players I should lean towards. I'm not really familar with all the features that are available, but my main concerns are:
Picture/Sound (Will be connected via S-Cable)
Reliability
I also do like the fact that the Panasonic has the MP3 playback capabilities, but not sure how great it is (i.e. interface, playback)
I'm sure I'd be happy with either, as I'm just getting into the HT market, but I'd like to hear from the masses, incase there is something that I hadn't thought of or just completely overlooked. It's easier to learn from you folk here than having to pay for something that ends up being junk =)
Thanks for any help =)
