ATTENTION: This DVD player is for the serious Home Theatre environment. Upgrading to the world of Widescreen HDTV Progressive Scan.
The GOOD NEWS is we now can enjoy our DVD experience even more, with better clarity (Progressive Scan 480P), color (Color - Stream) and sound (HDCD).
The BAD NEWS is we must decide if we want or can afford this "BIG LEAGUE" world of Progressive Scan?
Here is the BOTTOM LINE, The Toshiba SD-6200 Cinema Series Progressive-Scan DVD Player w/component video, Color Stream Pro & HDCD sound is the player to have for this upgrade!!!!!! The SD-6200 offers the perfect base (foundation) for your HDTV (Widescreen Theatre) System.
NOTE: Progressive Scan must have an originator (SD-6200) and a compatible receiver (HDTV that is Progressive Scan Ready) for the magic to happen.
Toshiba is the Leader in making great DVD players and the greatest for those who are in the HDTV Progressive Scan Mode.
For the NON-PROGRESSIVE SCAN USERS Toshiba makes a great alternative DVD player with Color-Stream Pro and nice capabilities (SD-2150).
Good Luck!

I already had a DVD player for my computer and it performed really well, however I wanted something for my home entertainment system. This product delivered. It surpassed any picture quality that I have seen so far--only to be rivaled by movie theaters. The menus and options will take a little practice to get used to, however, the remote control comes in handy with its navigation buttons. Sound is definitely great on this player, when good speakers are attached to the player. Overall, this is an excellent buy.

This unit is a upgrade from an original Sony, what a difference. The picture is perfect especially when used with Colorstream connections (And Toshiba 55" TV). Great audio with surround sound 5 channel connections. Remote takes a little to get used to though. All round good performance.

This system offers great picture quality and the convenience of a dual tray system for those double feature nights and/or playing CD's. The remote control is easy to use and provides great scan and zoom features. The sound quality is amazing......Truly theater like. As has been mentioned by others, there are only two small annouances with this model. 1) When you turn on the system or open one of the tray's, if there is a CD/DVD in the system, it will automatically begin to play.....with certain DVD's you cannot stop it from playing until it has played through the Copy Write Warning and 2)the system automatically shuts off after 20 minutes of inactivity. These are very minor and would not sway my purchase decision.

Picture quality is excellent and the player is very quiet. I would highly recommend this DVD player for those looking for a high quality progressive scan model at a reasonable price.
