Best progressive scan DVD player for under 1500???

You already have a Toshiba TV so go with the awesome SD 9200 DVD player.
I find it has the best picture that I have ever seen plus it plays regular cd's as good as most high priced cd players.
Retail was $2000 but Toshiba just dropped the retail price to $1500 and you can buy it for less than that.
This unit weighs 31 lbs, takes an upgraded powercord, and the build quality is impressive.

Hi Zexxtool,

Happy listening and l@@king!

Hello Zexxtool:

I have three recommendations for a "progressive scan" DVD player, and they are ALL under $2K. And they are:

(01). Pioneer Elite DV-38A -- $1,800.00
(02). Sony DVP-S9000ES -- $1,500.00
(03). Toshiba SD-9200 -- $1,900.00

And by the way, the Pioneer Elite DV-37 is very nice too. I happen to own one. I had mine going on five months now, and I am using mine with a analog/interlaced Panasonic CT-27SF37 Direct-View TV, and I couldn't be happier. If you want get a killer picture out of your brand new Toshiba 40HD80, and don't want to spend no more than $1,000.00 (and I paid $700.00 for my player), the Pioneer Elite DV-37 is a great way to go.

Let us know which player you decide to go with. Good Luck.

I have a 56H80 and a 65H80, I must say that for the best bang for the buck, go with the panasonic RP-91. I am totally happy with the progressive quality. I got mine around 500 off the net.

Not certain with the doubler however I hear the DVDO Pro is great! Usually 400 - 600 used......

Put another check mark in the Sony column. I wholeheartedly endorse the DVP-9000ES. I love this player.
