Hello.
Calling it an X-Mas present to myself, I'm going to go for broke and buy a true, top-shelf DVD player. Currently, I have a Sony DVP-S330 hooked up to a Sony WEGA KV-36FV15 television. This combo has made me very happy over the past years and has fueled my budding need to get into home theater. The audio part of my system is nill right now, due to the fact of space and "noise" limitations. Anyway, that changes when I move this spring.
I have sampled the 9000 ES a lot and prefer the "softer" look of it's picture, the way it handles picture artifacts and it's operating/menu system. But, after seeing the 9200, I did not think it's sharper picture was any better or worse than what I'm used to. But it is different. And, at most retailers, it can be had for a couple of hundred less than the Sony.
So, taking into account my future purchase of a really good Hi-Def monitor, how would you decide? Get the more expensive player with what I think has 10/10ths the picture? Or save a couple of hundred (maybe even more) for one with 9/10ths the picture?
Any thoughts or opinions would be great!
