Hi all. I really need some info. I am in Australia. It seems that the DVD-1600 here is different from what you are all use to seeing. The ones here DO NOT have a component output and only RGB out through the SCART. Nor does it say anywhere that it is progressive scan or has the Faroudja chip set. So I am really unsure whether it does. I run it into a projector and because of the above, I have had to buy a converter that converts the Scart RGB to Component video. I dont know whehter this is bad or good, I have always gone with the philosphy of not having to many connections.

Getting to the point. I am not impressed with the picture from the dvd1600. Dont get me wrong, it looks great, but there is no difference between that and the svideo connection. When I had my Sony dvd hooked up, there was a huge difference between the svideo and component quality. I want to replace the 1600 but I dont want to get caught again. I want a player with a much better image quallity. I am considering the dvd2910. Does anyone have any thoughts on this please??? I am trying to keep it under $1000.00 which in US it would equate to roughly $800.00.
