Sony DVD madness.


So when I go to buy a DVP-S7700 my dealer tells me to save my money and buy the CX850 instead. He claims that the 850 came out later and has newer (and better - although he knows that they aren't synonymous) video reproduction technology. Thing is, I don't especially want a 200 disk changer. So I went back to the research drawing board and noticed that there are two single disk Sony solutions (S560 and the shiney S570) as well as 2 five disk options (C660 and C670). Now from what I understand at least some of these came out after the 850, and hence might have some of the newer filters and video DACs. What I want to know is how these six (7700, 850, 670, 660, 570, 560) compare in video reproduction (I'm not too concerned with audio reproduction as I don't tend to critically listen when I'm watching movies - I save it for the music). I'm mostly interested in hearing from people who have auditioned at least two of these as it's a comparison that I'm looking for. TIA.

Thanks all. Shred, when you say toy, are you refering to build quality or video repro? Amrik, how did the video quality compare between the 7700 and the 570? Was the 570 as bad as the 330 in audio repro? This would be easy if you always got what you payed for, but as we all know this is often not the case in the world of consumer electronics.
