Does Panasonic RP 91 still have the best Picture


I am looking for a dvd that has good picture quality, most of the ones on display that I have seen, seem to have a soft pictures, I am only interested in picture quality, (progressive) , I have a 16/9 mits 65 ", even though it is a older model, would the panasonic rp 91 be a good choice, or possibly the philips q50, I would apreciate any help on this, thanks

It's an older model but yes it seems like this is still the player to beat. I have one being used with a Pioneer PRO520 and it's really great. The only other player that seems to be close is the Panasonic RP82 but I'm pretty sure it's been discontinued. You would think by now that other manufacturers would be able to catch up. This just has not happened yet. The RP91 also has the ability to fill a 16:9 screen with non-anamorphic disks. This feature is nice and I've used it a few times. It also has no chroma bug which the Pioneer players DO HAVE. I've read lots of info on some of the new players out and it still seems like the RP91 does the most things RIGHT. Denon has some new players out which some say the image is better than the RP91 but users have reported tons of problems with disks freezing, etc.

You can do some research over at AVS forum.

Hope this helps.
