Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Toshiba's ultra-portable SD-P2000 DVD-Video/DVD-Audio player is designed to deliver "no compromise" video and audio performance. The company's first DVD-Audio-equipped portable is distinguished by an 8.9-inch PolySilicon widescreen display whose high-resolution image (1,024-x-600 pixel) is more than five times as dense as that of its closest competitor. The TFT (thin-film-transistor) active-matrix display delivers filmlike images rich in detail, color resolution, and contrast. The player also offers multiformat versatility, including DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, DVD-R, audio CD, Video CD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 CD playback. The unit offers ColorStream PRO progressive-scan component video outputs (for use with HD-ready and HDTVs) and is further distinguished by an advanced 10-bit, 54 MHz video digital-to-analog converter. Surface-mounted keypads grant "remote-free" operation of all essential functions, while a sleek, credit-card-size remote control performs advanced operations.

Leading-edge 24-bit/192 kHz digital-analog converters from Analog Devices delivers exceptional two-channel DVD-Audio frequency response and dynamic range. DVD-Audio discs deliver high-resolution audio, capturing and reproducing all of the nuances of the original performance and offering high-resolution surround sound as well as stereo. Two built-in headphone jacks let you watch or listen with a partner. Dialogue Expansion improves intelligibility of a disc's center-channel frequencies, while Spatializer N-2-2 Virtual Surround Sound simulates surround sound through two speakers or headphones. Built-in stereo speakers grant headphone-free listening.

The supplied lithium ion battery blends seamlessly with the player's cosmetic profile and offers more than three hours of uninterrupted movie or music entertainment. (An optional extended-life battery adds five hours of viewing time.) During compact disc and DVD-Audio playback, the SD-P2000's LCD panel can be turned off, extending battery life even further.

The SD-P2000 connects to nearly any display, from standard TVs to flat-panel and projection sets. Video Black Level Expansion ensures optimal contrast and gray scale reproduction, and PLUGE helps properly calibrate the brightness levels of any connected monitor. The SD-P2000 passes both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals through its digital-audio outputs (one each coaxial and optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. Audio and video mini-plug outputs and standard S-video connectors improve the SD-P2000's flexibility.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome DVD player.......2004-08-03

After researching portable dvd players extensively, I finally bought these and I can't complain ONE bit. I was deciding between the Sonys, Panasonics and Toshibas and while they are all very similiar in picture quality I felt Toshiba was the best for features, reviews and price. The picture is really amazing and while the speakers are a bit lacking, that is true for the majority of portable dvd players. The only problem I've had is that it states that it plays video cd's but so far I have not been able to play any of them. The battery life is outstanding. The manual says it's good for 3.5 hours but I used them for almost 4.5 hours. I watched mystic river and (6) 25 minute episodes of the simpsons. Overall, I highly recommend this player.

5 out of 5 stars Ditto, this is the one to have........2003-07-12

Prior to our purchase of the SD-P2000 I did quite a bit of study on the other units available and decided on the Toshiba for various techno-features, top of the list being the quality of the screen. I could carry on with techno-babble but we'll leave that for others.

Semi-short and to the point, most reviewers see this as being a superior product, I agree. Some express concern about the quality of sound output and that's the main reason for my authoring this additional review.

If one reads the manual bundled with the player it's easy to glance over the sound output options but they're important features to note. There are three different basic sound settings, one standard and two enhanced. For those having trouble hearing, 1) use headphones (the only logical way to limit background noise and 2) use the "Dialog" mode for sound output, you will find this makes all the difference in clarity and output volume in most cases. A few other reviewers have mentioned noise cancelling headphones. I'f you're spending this kind of money on a portable player the additional dollars may put you over the top. If you're willing to go all out, look into the Bose offering, a bit on the spendy side but wow do they work well.

This is a wonderful unit, look no further.

4 out of 5 stars Great Picture. Poor Sound.......2003-07-06

I bought this player for long trips in the car. Player has a great picture and plenty of features. The only drawback is you almost have to use headphones unless you are in an extremely quiet room. Ive noticed other portable dvd players have the same problem so I don't think its that big of a deal. I still think it is well worth the money

5 out of 5 stars Stunning Performance........2003-06-26

This player is amazing--the 16/9 ratio 8.9" screen produces a stunning and very film-like image. With its progressive scanning and 614,400 pixels, it can display anamorphic widescreen DVDs in their full resolution, like watching them on an HD-ready TV. The sound is great too--with a good set of headphones, you will think you're in the theater. Viewing movies on this baby is downright addictive. I haven't listened to a DVD-Audio yet, but regular audio CDs sound very good, and it plays all my CD-Rs with no problems.The only features I wish it had are an S-video input for the monitor (it does have a standard A/V input), and random play for audio CDs, but given the space constraints of a portable the former is probably unrealistic to expect anyway. All-in-all, a superb player.
