Page 1 of Wanting a DVD for Around £200... HELP

Can any one recomend a VERY GOOD player for around the £200 mark? I have seen the Whalfdale 705* in Tescos and have also read alot about it having problems with playing disks... Really I want a Multiregion player with Optical if poss with great sound and pic. Macro disabled an avantage but not nessersary.
Any advise would be gratfull

Thanks

There is only one answer to the above!
Dukey will probably confirm soon!

AIWA 370!!

Mp3, DVD, CD, CDR, CDRW, VCD, scart/svideo/composite/digital optical/digital coax!

But...how much?

TWO HUNDRED QUID!!!!!
(from one of my rivals..::sticks in my throat here::..... Comet!)

And the region hack is on the Region Hack forum.

Information on the macro disable as soon as I see the LG rep again.

Thats Great Guys
Just gotta decide what one I should go for now...

Jimbo,

I was in the same position as your good self today, after reading jezebabes comments on the Hardware forum I Decided on the Aiwa 370 and after setting it up about 2 hours ago I can not fault it.

It plays CDR, CDRW, Video cd and MP3 region hack is a peice of cake and all for £199.00 from comet, go on make the right choice and join the Aiwa posse you wont regret it.

If you dont you will need to have a serious word with yourself...

Ricardo.......

There is no hack for the 2280 I`m afraid...thats why I`m waiting for an updated firmware chip from Michael at Switch-it-on.

Email him at Switch-it-on if you need a chip, he`s VERY VERY reasonably priced, and ace to deal with. :)

And remember who started the Aiwa craze....
