This is about the DVP-S560D

by elverno , Aug 05 '00
Pros: Superb picture and sound...
Cons: Minor setup pains...
I was given this player but would have gladly gone out and bought it. Like other folks who participate online with their opinions I sometimes fill out surveys about products or to gain my opinion. In the case of the Sony DVP-S560D I won mine as a...

From a mom's point of view

by greeneyedemon , Jun 30 '00
Pros: Reasonable price and had everything we needed.
Cons: Having to switch the remote to the tv setting in order to control volume
My husband and I purchased this particular DVD player in early January of this year at Best Buy. We payed about $290 for it (it was an open box buy).I was very skeptical of buying a DVD because I normally wait a while to purchase new products, in order...

Sony DVP-S530D: A Great Buy!

by Mr.Roberts , Jun 30 '00
Pros: Picture quality and relatively low price
Cons: Not one!
To be honest, we purchased our Sony DVD player mainly because of the name, at least at the start. It turns out this was a great purchase. With so many "knock-off" companies out there, we decided to go with an old reliable company. Sony has a...

Novice DVD user

by tkao , Jun 22 '00
Pros: Lots of features, enough to keep the novice audio/videophile occupied
Cons: Not enough description of the features of the player for proper configuration.
I bought my Sony DVP-S530 on April 2000 from Best Buy in Cambridge, MA. The salesman was pretty helpful and didn't try to sell me a more expensive unit. I purchased the player for $332 and that included 5 free DVD's.

I didn't know a lot about...

Great features, less hefty price tag

by flindingo , May 27 '00
Pros: Great features! CD-Text reading
Cons: Needs receiver for good audio
Sony Products sure are expensive, this is the second DVD player in my review. I had to do a series of reviews of players for my work. This player is much more affordable than the DVP-S7700, which is a good player but a little too expensive ($1400)....

Great DVD

by fursty , May 24 '00
Pros: Great player, fun extras
Cons: hard to set up with old equipment
I received this DVD last summer as a wedding gift. Although I haven't had the chance to really test out its video and sound power because of my otherwise piddling tv/stereo set up (such as it is), this is a great DVD. I was a relatively early converter...

I never Knew movie watching could be so fun!

by Mikeface , May 15 '00
Pros: extra features, ease of use
Cons: that stupid wheel on the remote
Before I purchased this wonderful piece of technology I very rarely bought movies or even rented them for that matter. This DVD player makes movie watching an enjoyable experience. I have had my DVD player for about a month and a half and I...

A MUST BUY!!!

by winniethegu , May 11 '00
Pros: everything
Cons: nothing
This is one of the best DVD players ever made. I got this for around $350-$325 about half a year ago. This sound quality, picture, decoder, is phenominal. I have a nice home theater system which utilizes this DVD player amazingly. If you want to buy...

Sony Review from a Sears Associate

by MaximumC2 , May 09 '00
Pros: Quality, Durability, Options, and Ease of use
Cons: Higher model can get expensive
Sony has played a leading role in the entertainment experience for a good number of years. Sony's own creation of their DVD players only enhanced the quality of all DVD players already on the market. Sony set a standard with their players. Most Sony...

Ready for Recall?!!

by audioyster , May 05 '00
Pros: sleek, affordable
Cons: plagued with problems
My first DVD player experience has been frustrating! When we first noticed the audio/video sync problems, we thought it was us. Then the movies started to freeze halfway through and start from the beginning. The last straw was when an audio cd we...

High Quality, great features

by sfommelt , Apr 25 '00
Pros: features, quality, value
Cons: not for everyone
After much consideration, I decided to take the plunge into the DVD world and purchased the Sony 530. I initially considered the Sony 330, mainly because of its lower price. I decided the the minimal cost increase would be worth it in the long run....

GREAT FOR THE PRICE

by reddog4477 , Apr 24 '00
Pros: Digital & DTS Capable, 3 Picture Viewing Selections
Cons: Handles only 1 DVD at a time
This Sony DVD player is an exceptional purchase.

There are three picture options based on the type of movie, however most of the time this is done automatically by the player itself. There is standard, wide screen (pan) or letterbox. When...

Great player, Great value

by BobB1114 , Apr 21 '00
Pros: Ease of Use, Quality Picture and Sound, Built-in Dolby Digital Decoder
Cons: Set-Up is a bit time consuming.
Ok, it's really quite simple... the Sony DVP-S530D is excellent and probably one of if not the best value in DVD players!

I did quite a bit of research prior to buying a DVD and for the money this machine just kept winding up on the top of my...
