In Reply to: My first DVD player posted by Diego on November 17, 1999 at 10:29:16:
I have a Toshiba and am happy with it for DVD and it has had some good reviews. However I do not use it for CD play (use a Theta Data III/DSP IIIa combo) so cannot comment on audio - have not even put a CD on!Hint: although you might not need it now, purchase a player with component, S-video as well as composite output. Such players tend to be better reproducers of good video. As for audio, my experience is to not expect too much quality from PCM digital, even with outboard processors.
Hope this is helpful

I have to agree with John. The DVD players I have heard are poor at music playback. A $300 cd player is generally more musical than a DVD player.
Also agreed -- generally. The Toshiba 3109 I have isn't too bad at music (not that I use it much for that) and has HDCD capability. You could do worse, lots worse.
