The best option for a compact, simple, quality DVD player April 1, 2009 Mr. A. Mingoia (Surrey, UK) 73 out of 73 found this review helpful
I've said it all in the title really. I just needed a small DVD player, to fit in a space too narrow for most players. I just wanted something to relieve my Xbox 360 from DVD playing duties. Previous purchases of similar, but cheap-branded players had let me down, often with a poor picture making my DVDs look more like Youtube videos, and poor build quality. Some only lasted 3 months.
This DVD player is a great price, still a little more than those cheaper alternatives, but does not let the Sony brand down. The picture quality is very good, the build quality is fine, with a nice, chunky and fully-featured remote control, has all the basic features you'd need, including two different speeds of slow motion in either direction, two scan speeds, frame advance, angles, audio channels. subtitles etc, all easily accessible on the remote. And so far it seems very reliable.
The only disadvantage compared to a more expensive DVD player is that the optional digital audio out is Co-axial, not Optical (which seems better), the only video output option is a single scart socket, and the start-up time (i.e the time taken for the player to load and start playing a DVD from the time you press play) is quite long, sometimes up to 10 seconds. But it's a minor niggle.
Overall I am very satisfied with this as a small, quiet, simple, and good quality DVD player for a very reasonable price.
Great little player! May 30, 2009 C. Richardson (UK) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Bought this compact player to fit in a narrow space. I've seen some reviews commenting that it's noisy, and yes it was a little noisy while playing a particular DVD but then not on any others we've tried, so overall it's quiet, and it is sitting on the thin metal top of a freesat receiver which if anything is likely to highlight any noise. It's playing through a 42" hd plasma tv, and the picture and sound quality is fine. Considering the price of this compact player, and that it does what it says on the tin, I'm happy.
Great litle machine February 13, 2010 Fencing-fanatic (UK) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We wanted an inexpensive replacement for our old machine which had finally given up. As we haven't yet got a HD television there was little point in paying for an expensive Blu-ray machine and we didn't need to record as we have a BT box thing to do this. After quite a lot of online research we went for the Sony, to a large extent because of the small size. It looks much nicer than it does in the picture and it really is very small and neat. It was easy to set up and works well with both music and DVD. The picture quality has been very good and the buttons are easy and work well. I haven't yet tried discs we have recorded ourselves. My only very minor criticism is that while the middle 'doors' shiny finish looks great it does tend to attract the dust. It's small, sexy, does the job well, plays lots of formats and doesn't cost a lot. What more do you want?
Compact & Easy to install January 9, 2010 Mrs. Mc Marshall 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this for my parents for Christmas as they needed a small DVD player. It is definitely compact but still has all the functionality you need. They have a Sony TV so it was literally a case of connecting the wires and the auto set up had us ready to go within a couple of minutes. Picture and sound quality are good so all in all a very good purchase.
