The CLD-97 is the best US player. The HLD-X9 is the best player in the world but very expensive. Neither will play PAL discs. The one you have I believe is the same as the CLD-704 except for PAL playback. Why won't the one you have play here?
Laserdiscs - PAL and NTSC
Hi guys hope you can help me. Have just moved from London to New York and bring with me a load of PAL and NTSC discs. In London used the Pioneer CLD-925 as it has both PAL and NTSC play and PAL output. Seems that will not work in the US (I have a Sony XBR-600 TV and the 9000ES amp).
So my question is a) is there a high end player here in the US that I can use to play all my discs on my system and b) if I'm out of luck and I need to ditch the PAl discs is the CDL-99 a good bet?
Many thanks in advance,
Cheers, Tim
