Highly recommended.......2003-02-04

I bought this item for the many features (including the DVD Audio). The product is easy to use and set up. The remote is a little small and difficult to figure out at first. But it did not bother me as I am using a universal remote. A video cable is not included, which is a must if you want to enyjoy progressive scan.

BAD Delivery.......2003-01-23

I ordered this DVD on January 14 - The order was not entered until January 18th! And, I was not notified of any order until January 19th. I am told, I cannot expect delivery until NEXT WEEK! Totally unacceptable! Do not use this company.

dvd audio.......2003-01-05

i bought this player with the thought of dvd audio..i love the video playing,fantastic picture...the audio plays nicely as well,has good bass managment i also tried a yamaha dvd audio/video ,cost [money],sounded muddy and boomy...i think this unit is far superior and half the price to boot!the only drawback and why i rated it only 4 stars is that the remote is too small as are the buttons on it and you have to use it slowly and deliberatly otherwise it has a tendency to get confused and freeze up(the whole unit itself),the drawer won't open,until you power it off and back on then all functions resume...strange why it does that but i also returned this and exchanged it for another unit...but it did the same thing,so i imagine it is the nature of the beast..can be aggravating,but the unit is slim and looks nice,fits in my cabinet nicely..i think this is a good buy for the $ with the progressive scan and also another feature i've only seen on more expensive models...a switch to turn off the video signal,giving you a better 6 channel audio signal.

Great sound & video, but not easy to use.......2002-09-12

This is my first DVD player, and overall I'm very pleased with it. My audio CD's sound so much better than they did on my old CD player. CD's that used to skip now play perfectly.

The quality of the video is beautiful. I used a an S-video cable to connect the DVD player to my TV. I have never before seen such a sharp, clear, and crisp picture on my TV.

The machine has a beautiful, sleek appearance.

What I don't like about this unit is the remote control. The main buttons are very tiny, so it's awkward to do basic functions such as play, pause, and skip. The owner's manual is also not user-friendly -- very small print and difficult to understand.

Without the shortcomings of the remote control and the owner's manual, I would rate this DVD player 5 stars.

Finally, a DVD player that does MP3 right.......2002-08-31

I already had a 3 DVD changer, but now that I've amassed a collection of some 50 MP3 CD-Rs (all ripped from my own CD collection or downloaded from eMusic, a subscription MP3 service) I was eagerly awaiting a DVD/MP3 player that would let me make use of them.

This is the first home stereo MP3 player I've found that actually displays the entire album and track name on the video monitor, not just the first few characters. You can easily step through album names and then step through song titles on that album to find the song you want in seconds, unlike many players that make you click sequentially through 70-80 songs before finding the one you want. At 10 hours of music per MP3 CD-R, I can load up 50 hours of music in this machine, hit "play" and not have to change discs for a week!

This player is loaded with features. I cannot yet take advantage of the 5.1 sound outputs or progressive scan features, but that is all waiting for me when I choose to upgrade my receiver and monitor. I'm also excited that I can now explore DVD-audio titles. This deck will read just about any kind of disc: CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-RAM, DVD-R, DVD-Audio, Video CD, MP3 and WMA files.

The user interface is intuitive and the unit itself is handsome and compact (only 3 inches tall). I'm looking forward to wading into the more advanced features, but for now I'm having great fun just skimming the surface.

Panasonic has packed a ton of features into a sharp looking, easy to use deck at a great price. I know the DVD is an evolving platform (current estimates have the next generation "blue laser" DVDs hitting the market by 2005), but I expect this unit will keep me more than happy for the next few years.
