RE: Took the Thomson back..got a Medion from Aldi (£129) BIG thumbs up :)
Well, I`ve got hold of one of these Medions. I paid a ton for mine, which is basically why i got it - Dolby decoding for less than a ton? I thought I`d try it out and let everyone know what I think....it does sound pretty sweet although I haven`t had time to sample it yet...my surround setup is foaming at the mouth in anticipation though...heh :o)
take it easy....
Can anyone help...?
Hi there... I`m about to buy a DVD player, and I need some advice.
I already have a dolby surround setup, but my amp does not decode 5.1 or DTS. This is the main reason I want on-board decoding on whatever DVD player I get. I anticipate that I will only really want to play region 1 DVDs, so an American model might be a possibility. My parents are visiting America very soon and could bring a player back. I realise there are some compatability problems with this. What I want to know is whether or not I can get a decent player from a reputable company like Sony, Yamaha, Pioneer, Toshiba etc that decodes DTS and is multi-region in the UK for 200 pounds?
Alternatively, I am aware that DVD player prices in the US are substantially less than their UK counterparts - less than half price in most cases - so I want to know if my old Sony TV which only has coaxial and scart inputs will play DVDs at all, either from America or the UK. I am a bit shaky on the whole PAL and NTSC issues...
If anyone could make a suggestion I would appreciate it.
Many thanks...
