In Reply to: High-End DVD players, Toshiba 9200 vs. Arcam DV-88 ?? posted by audioman on March 29, 2001 at 17:02:11:
The Arcam is the only choice between a mass market Jap unit, and a fine piece of Arcam engineering. They engineered this player from the ground up, and it has gotten NOTHING but outstanding accolades.The Toshiba may be a good unit, but it can't be as good as the Arcam. The fact that it is heavier does not mean it is better quality. The Arcam is also fully upgradeable. I feel much better about Arcam.
The Jap's idea of quality control is to load a container full of DVD Players, and take one off to make sure the power light comes on. hehe
