Good luck.
Actually, both articles are nearly identical since TAS and TPV are published by the same company and Shane Buettner wrote the both sets of reviews (I recommended the TPV article because it's a little more inclusive, but the conclusions are the same as TAS). He's probably done more universal player reviews than anybody else out there, and his reviews are generally very good. Now, if someone can give me a definitive answer on whether or not the DVD-2200's bass management also applies to the CD audio, then I can make a decision on whether or not to buy one of those players!
