In Reply to: Opinions as to best picture on prog. DVD player street price less than $300? posted by Methos on May 3, 2002 at 10:59:11:
These succeed the RP-56, and are on the verge of shipping. You can already find listings at a number of places, though none have it in stock.They both have the Faroudja FLI-2200 DCDi line-doubler. The RP-82 has some other features (e.g. gamma correction, MPEG-2 noise filtering), Dolby Digital/DTS decoding, and DVD-Audio support.
The best news about these players is that even the RP-82 is currently selling at less than $230. At that price, you can afford to take the leap to progressive, now, and buy a more capable and refined player in another year or two.
The bad news about these players is that neither is a replacement for Panasonic's RP-91, which uses the arguably inferior Genesis line-doubler, though almost certainly has better analog performance and refinement.
