I love this machine. It looks great. The slide down display that conceals the tray. The simple facia and clean lines make it stand out in my rack. But most importantly, the quality. The picture is brilliant. Rich deep colors and no obvious digital artifacts as seen in earlier players. Sound quality is second to none. I now us the Toshiba as my CD player. It's that good!!! The sound from both DVD-A & CD's is excellent. You would have to spend a lot more money than what is being asked here to improve on this unit. My only complaint is with the remote control. It could have been laid out better and include built in backlighting. But my universal remote solved that problem. I would recommend the Toshiba to anyone looking for a 1st rate DVD player & the capability to play all current CD formats including MP3's with the same, if not better, quality of other flagship models.

I've been enjoying my SD-9200 since 2001 and it plays as well today as the day I brought it home. It is built extremely well. I use it for both DVD's as well as music playback with DVD-audio and CD's. Not quite a universal player (no SACD), but very close to it. The quality is far and above 95% of what you will find on the shelves of most big box electronics stores. If you find one used (and not abused), it would be a great buy, even today.

Your old CDs and those HDCDs never sounded so good. Throw in the new DVD-A format ... and you have a winner.

Buy This Player !

After dealing with repeated Sony woes, I bought this unit because I believed that it would last a long time. After two years of ownership the spindle vibrates, it skips, and freezes. This unit has been a complete disappointment. What a terrible waste of $1500. I'll never buy another item again from this manufacturer. Toshiba and Sony both make JUNK. God, I wish there was a unit made in good-ole U-S-A!!! Seems like all you see these days are Chinese and Japanese junk in the stores.

This is absolutely the best player out there. It plays everything that I've got- DVD, VCD, and CD. It have a very crisp look and feel to it.

Recommendation: Strong Buy
