Rating:  - * Defective DVD player ... Product is defective but don't know how to return it cause I dont have the label anymore. I am so dissappointed with this purchase. Rating: - * Sony Product review ... I have recently purchased a Sony Bravia 40" LCD high definition 1080p TV for my bedroom from Amazon through a promotional pricing offer, intended to get me to sign up for an Amazon Credit Card. Nice deal. 1ooo bucks for the TV, 3 Interest Free months of low monthly payments. No problems there. So, I thought the next item I would purchase is the Sony 5-disk 1080p DVD player from Amazon. Read all the Amazon customer reviews, some positive, some not so positive. Price was pretty good, so I bought one. This Sony DVD player is supposed to be compatible with the Sony Bravia TV's. It is not. I made the simple connection via a HDMI cable from the TV to the DVD player, and according to the Instruction booklet, that should do it. I set the TV input to HDMI 1 input, which is the HDMI input I first tried (I eventually tried all three HDMI TV inputs individually). I get a signal to the TV, but Picture is very poor quality (unwatchable). I checked the TV Instructions booklet, and there are no additional steps to making this work. I previously had an LG HDMI upscaling DVD player that upscales standard DVD's to 1080i (1080i DVD player and 1080p TV), and the picture quality was fantastic. Not True HD, but damn close. Upscaling DVD players are a great choice for people who have a large collection of non-HD DVD's, and don't want to spend the money to replace their Library of DVD's to get high quality Picture from their collection. I know that this DVD player should work correctly, but for some reason, it will not sync with the same name brand TV. I will hafta contact the manufacturer, and see if there are additional steps I need to perform in getting these two items to correctly play my DVD's. Since I feel that this DVD player should work correctly out-of-the-box as the instructions indicate, I give this product a very low rating for not being easily compatible with their own brand TV. Rating:  - * Good Product Overall ... I hesitated to purchase this product because of the reviews I read regarding how slowly it loads. I like Sony products, the price was right, so I purchased it. Although it is true that it loads slowly, it is not a problem for me. The sound quality and overall performance are excellent. Rating:  - * No technical gobbledy-gook ... I'll get right to the point with no hi-tech mumbo-jumbo. This DVD player does exactly what I wanted it to. I like to play various TV show DVD's at different times, but found it a chore taking them in and out of boxes and into the DVD player...waiting for them to load etc...forgetting where I left off when I came back to them. I plugged this DVD player into my TV in about 30 seconds, just like any other...loaded 5 different discs into the player, and voila! You hit one button to take you to the next DVD on the tray, wait about 30 seconds for loading and there you have it. It was worth the vaery reasonable price I paid. Rating: - * Sony 5 CD player ... This piece of equipment works well and does exactly what I wanted it to do. Thank you |
