Just got my new sony dvd player

OH YES!

It replaces my outdated Sharp D560H which ,admittedly, served me well, but just couldnt keep up with my growing collection of discs (45 now!)

This is EASILY the best DVD player I have seen that is not extorcionately (spelling?) priced, and i lookes at a LOT of machines!

£449 from Multiregion Magic, and I HIGHLY recommend them, excellen service, next day delivery!

Hopes this helps anyone deciding whether or not to buy the machine, it was messages like this that helped me!

Second your comments both about MRM and the 735 as I got mine delivered today as well. No problems with any of my R1 / R2 discs so far and when I called MRM yesterday they answered all my questions and were extremely helpful.

Now all I`ve got to do is wait for my 32FQ75 coming on Saturday :-))))

davie s... I`ve been using RGB exclusively with the 735 and FQ75, haven`t tried SV at all. From my limited tech knowledge RGB bypasses any NTSC / PAL issues and should deliver the best picture. I`m also using an Ixos 126AV scart to connect the two and the picture quality is awesome - even my g/f noticed, which is a result in itself :-)

After reading a lot of posts on the net about poor geometry on Sony sets I was prepared for a bit of a disappointment when it was up and running, but after a play of the THX setup on one of the Toy Story DVD`s and some minor adjustments to basic picture settings I`m more than happy.

One thing which amazed me is watching DVD`s I`d previously watched on an old Mitsubishi 25" and thought were great transfers suddenly look poor on the 32FQ75 - `The Big Lebowski` for example... although watching `Saving Private Ryan` before hand may have something to do with it.
