Dan, if you decide you want to splurge a little more on your video set-up, may I suggest you get one of the Panasonic digital receivers, which run less than $300 I believe. With these, you can take the coax S/PDIF out from the Oppo directly to the Panasonic. Hook up two decent, small speakers and you will think it's the best money you've ever spent on home entertainment. This is ehat I've done. With a 50" plasma display, you need better sound than what comes out of the display. Two channel home theatre is great.
Best picture from an under $400 DVD player
It has been a while since I posted, but I am back. Hello to everyone!!! Quick question? I just purchased a 50 inch Panasonic plasma screen (TH-50PHD8UK) for a new condo (Yes...for those of you wondering..I did finally use the money from my old system to buy my first place). I am looking for the best picture possible from a DVD player under $400 (and to be honest.. preferably under $300). The audio quality of the DVD player (cover your ears audiophiles) is irrelevant to me as this will only be running through the TV's add on speakers. I am more then willing to buy new or used. Thank you for your suggestions.
Dan
P.S. For those of you wondering..I am now in the D.C. area.
