Page 1 of Wharfedale DVD-750 review comments

Having recently purchased the above from Tesco and just read Dave Smith`s review of it, I would make the following comments:

The unit is certainly very noisy when playing disks. It is much worse than my returned Samsung 807. It needs to be positioned carefully to minimise this noise.

It has a minor problem with a missing cursor on the Martix R1 disk. You can get the cursor to appear by pressing the "7" key on the remote. See Mark Jewiss`s column about a programming defect on the disk`s menu picked up in the Thompson report.

The zoom facility seems pointless as definition of the zoomed picture is much poorer. A slow motion facility would have been much more useful (perhaps its there but I haven`t found it yet).

On balance, its a nice cheap player but I would rather have had kept my Samsung 807 if the firmware could have been fixed. Its a shame it had to go back to Comet for a refund but such design defects are not acceptable in any circumstances.
