Yup, the cld-79 (along with the cld-704, cld-99 and cld-97) is a BIG step up from any of the older models and about as good as LD is gonna get, with the exception of some of the japanese-only supermachines like the HLD-X0 and X9. But the cld-79 sells for about $400 which is a lot more than the original poster planned to spend.I owned an LD-S2 and while the build is impressive the newer models cream it picture and audio-wise.
The newer dvd/ld combi players like the dvl-919 have very.... um, interesting.... LD picture quality. In some respects it outperforms even the cld-97 picture, however the blue channel is very noisy which was never much of a problem in any of the later pioneer ld players. I've owned a '919 for a couple years now and still can't decide if I love or hate the picture... it's a very unique presentation that has advantages and disadvantages.
Say what you will about laserdisc, it's still the only way you're gonna be able to see flicks like Star Wars, etc. for the next year or two.
