Hi, Folks!!

Usually, you will find me posting on the RaveRecs board of the AudioReviewForums, but I need some expert advice.

I need to buy a DVD player that will play almost all formats without hiccups. It needs to have progscan, component cable capability optical cable capability & superb picture/sound for movie DVDs.

Currently, I hav a 122" diagonal screen with a Sanyo ceiling projector. My 5.1 set-up is with very nice Paradigm speakers, Pioneer surround receiver "7.1", and a very good Panasonic DVD player. (the entired ht system is about two and a half yrs old)

Problem is........the Panasonic will not play some of the dual-layered discs that I'm buying as imports from China (NTSC, region 1). I know it's not the discs' fault, since my daughter's portable "no-name" DVD player will play these with ease.

Please....give me a few suggestions of Solid DVD players (don't want to spend more than $200.

Thanks-a-ton,

Bill aka audiobill
