Depends what you want - standard DVD play back or the whole kaboodle (eg SVCD, VCD, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3, hell Karoake ?) and whether you want multiregion and macrovision disabled.

Encore 450 does all of this, he said smugly.....

basicly i want everything for under £200 (cheap git eh?)
i`ve been looking around and there`s quite a lot of choice but i would prefer input from `real` people as opposed to sales persons (no offense intended)
As you guys won`t bullshit me with jargon
cheers!!

Consider the Lecson, basically a 750s with more features and 1p under £200. It doesn`t do everything, but what it does it does well.

BUT, Jimbo should be here in a minute with an alternative suggestion :))

Is the lecson a Wharfy or Wharfy (S) replica?

If it is a standard wharfy beware it has disc problems.

Apart from the fact, Unbeatable `MAY` try to push one of their many dodgy returns out as new (Please dont sue me theyve got to end up somewhere!), I`d go for it!
Check to see if its the new `S` model which has a true standby power-down function and better remote control.

Although I`m a proud MiCO owner, if I was in your shoes, I`d go for the Aiwa 370 for its excellent picture/sound. It wont do SVCD or macrovision disable but it looks SO GOOD.

If you want to check out the MiCO, click on my name above and follow the link to my MiCO shrine. There you will find the user manual in PDF format.

MiCO Rocks!!! (Keep Away From Hitachi`s - Theyre For Pussies Only)
