Denon DVD Player Progressive Scan HDMI

For those of you who think that the difference between getting a cheap $69 DVD player and this player is hardly noticeable, THINK AGAIN.

This player is exceptional in quality. Its DCDi Faroudja processor provides picture quality that I would find hard to surpass. After replacing my old Sony 360 model, the depth in color (especially skin tones) as well as the contrast took my breath away. There were details in Star Wars III that had escaped my attention before; the picture was so sharp!

Just some additional notes:

- HDMI conversion upscalable to 1080i...a definite plus.
- 2 MB buffer memory makes layer transitions hardly noticeable.
- Rating control allows parents to select whether certain movies will play for children or not.

All in all, an exceptional professional product for a mainstream user - a definite must for an HD user.

Having an HDMI Plasma TV made sense to go and buy an HDMI dvd player. The recipient of fantastic written reviews and verbal recommendations, the Denon 1920 dvd player has been unavailable due to demand in the UK for months now. Some dedicated Home Cinema/Hi Fi shops have been waiting two months for new stock of this player. Even on the Internet, most supplying sites will take orders but then warn of delays and lack of availability. Well having drawn a blank at 20 stores today, I finally discovered a store which had one in stock. He had this player for a whole day and was amazed that he had not sold it. Needless to say so was I but that did not distract me from parting with my cash, and putting him back among the stores (i.e. everyone else) currently out of stock of this player.

Having set the player up what are my conclusions? Does it live up to the hype and the frenzy which seems to have gripped the buying public in the UK? The answer is a resounding yes.
