I have owned a DV-1000 for about 2 years and can tell you it is a great audio and video player. It does have component video, but does not pass the DVD DTS signal, which is a drawback if you want that sort of thing. I have used this player mostly for playing CDs in which it excels. Someday I will sell it, but not until I'm sure that I can replace it with a better sounding player.
