Most of your highend dvd players are geared for better audio not video. I have a Theta Carmen II and the video is very good but probably not as good as or any better than the unit you have, although as a transport the audio is excellent. The Ayre DX1 and Krell DVD standard have excellent video qualities but boy are they expensive. The Pioneer 5910 probably has as good a video as any thing available. I am not interested in the upcoming new formats as there will be very little software to go with the expensive players, I'll wait until the war is over. Why buy something when you may have 20 titles to play.
big bucks on dvd player worth it??
If I am using the player strictly for movies what am I gaining by going to something like an ayre or tag -hi end player vs the pioneer dv59a that I have now- Is the pic. better,audio,is it worth spending the money with hd coming?-my system is up to the task of a high end player just trying to decide what if anything i am gaining? thanks,gary
