Denon DVD-2500BTCi

Pros: GREAT BUILD QUALITY!!!! DTS MASTER AUDIO 7.1 BIT STREAM

Cons: To expensive for a player that is not very versatile.

Summary: I have to start off by saying that this thing looks so great with a denon receiver.I have the new denon avr 4308ci hdmi 1.3 unit.It sends the new dolby true hd and dts master audio sound tracks bit stream to the receiver for decoding.I not going to get into the whole pcm /bit stream talk here but if you dont have the new receivers with built in decoding i would definitly go with another player. Video performance on regular dvds looks fantastic to me.Denons keeping quiet about what video scaler is actually in this player .i know it does not have the new hqv video chip that the dvd 3800 bdci is going to have when it comes out in march.ThAT PLAYER WILL RUN YOU TWO THOUSAND DOLLORS.!! I will admit that i think the player is to expensive considering that its not version 2.0. But Performance wise this player realy shines . listening to dts master audio is realy cool!!!!!!
