Page 1 of Conia (Amiosonic) DVD 8500

I have just ordered one of these from a US store online and while i`m waiting for it to arrive was wondering if anyone else has one. It is an interesting machine. Progressive scan, probabaly only in NTSC though, Kareoke functions and a great looking box (IMHO). - What i`m hoping is that it will have similar hack functions as found on my Shinco 2120, i.e Region code chage or free, CSS on/off and Macrovision on/off - Anyone know?

There really is not much to be found on the Internet although a firm in Notts is selling it at quite a high price, they`ve got a spec here:- http://www.emkaraoke.co.uk/coniadvd.htm

Any help would me appeciated.

I own the Sungale 8500 which is from the same company. It`s been working great but I don`t know if mine playes DVD-Audio. in the brochure it said it`s processor was only 24bit/96k which mean`s it`s not compatible. The website says it is. The Amoisonic, Conia, and Sungale 8500 players are supposed to be identical though.
