Cheap home theatre dvd system

i was walking through ASDA today and came across a Pacific home theatre dvd system for £189 this looks a pretty good looking unit and the speakers and sub felt pretty well made plus you get a 3 yr warranty free of charge. if anyone as any experiance of this unit then i`d like to know as a mate of mine is interested in getting one. i brought a Schneider HSC 500 about a month ago and i am really pleased with it and am currently trying to get hold of any hacks (unit is the same as the Hitachi HTDK 150) so if anyone can help it would be appriciated

HACKING: Schneider HCS 500

does any one know if there is a region and macrovision hack for the Schneider HCS 500 this unit is very similar to the Hitachi HTDK 150 DVD but fitted with a different front panel. Could this be the same unit that as been rebadged?

Hitachi HTDK 150 or Schneider HCS 500

just been looking at the Schneider HCS 500 in our local ASDA and all but the face-plate, all other features seem to be very identical to the Hitachi HTDK 150. Even down to the positioning of the output terminals and the type of casing and sizes, if this unit is of the same structure then it only costs £299.99 as appossed to the Hitachi which sells for £499.99 at Argos . If anyone can confirm this then i`ll be very gratefull.Has i woould be interested in buying one. Also i`d like to know of any hacks possible with this player
