High dollar player for low dollar price,

This review is from: Denon DVD-1940CI: DVD/CD/SACD with 1080p Video Upconversion (Electronics)
I spent some time researching upconverting DVD players and found that the Denon DVD 1940CI was favored by other reviewers on several other sites - and they were right. This player's upconverting technology may not match Blue Ray's clarity and rich detail, but it makes an amazing impact on my 1080p LCD. For a hundred dollar DVD player you feel like you stole a production quality unit. This DVD player has a very nice loading tray and pickup head allowing for stable playback and tremendously good error correction. I have a two year old who likes to "help" with the DVDs and the pickup head reads the discs through her finger-prints and scratches. If you're on a budget and not interested in Blue Ray I would recommend this DVD player to you.

If you wanna a complete and reliable DVD set, out of doubt Denon 1940 is one of the best option. Affordable, read all DVD and CD formats including SACD, provide excellent image resolution and amazing sound quallity. The Absolute Sound Magazine has good references about this set. The best cost benefit in the market.

Simply put, for the money you just cannot touch this quality with any other brand. The Denon DVD 1940-CI may not have all of the bells and whistles of your local 'Best Buy' brands like Sony, LG...blah blah, but it sounds better, it built to last, and looks a helluva lot sexier. I have replaced my dvd player 3 times in as many years with those out of the box $99. ones at the chain stores. Not being ready to drop $300.-$400. on a blu-ray yet as I don't have the capable TV, this was the perfect option and I know the Denon brand will last as I have an entire system of their equipt. and it has been very stable with unrivaled sound. Doesn't take SD cards... really, when was the last time you even stuck one in your dvd player? Come to terms with the fact that 'extra's' as found on the larger chain brands are really useless and just lead to having more chances for something to break. In short, if you want great CD sound, grerat dvd picture, and a unit that is heavy, well built, and matches...Read more
