In Reply to: DVD players with 5.1 outputs: ok enough? posted by mark maloof on July 9, 2001 at 16:08:16:
... as, presuming it has a master volume control, this would make for easier matching of various speakers, amps etc. The suggestion of an older player with no 5.1 built in is worth investigation although be careful as there have been a lot of improvements in video lately and prices have come down rather than go up. A player without 5.1 circuitry, theoretically, should be better value than one with it but that may not follow. We have a 2 year old Toshiba with no decoding and it gives an excellent picture. However I would not look at anything older than that.Further point to consider is the video output. Component is the best followed by S-video with composite running last. Your choice might depend on the present or future TV you use.
WARNING: Although you presently proclaim that HT is not a high priority, the audio-video disease will set in and ultimately cost dollars but careful planning now should help avoid wasting too much of the green folding stuff. If you appreciate good sound you will not tolerate poor HT sound or mediocre video. So, choose your DVD player carefully.
