Hi,

I was told that as we all use optical cable to DVD player, there are not too much difference between top or cheaper DVD player, as long as you have a good quality reciever/amp to manage the data from optical cable?

many thanks:-)

Not true, a top of the line player will be considerably better than a cheapo. How much difference you're going to hear depends on you're ears and audio equipment.

Thanks David,

I got Marantz 7600 reciever, JBL L890 4way speakers, what kind of DVD player do you think can match well to it?
Marantz DV-7600, Denon DVD-2910, DVD-3910? or others?

thanks:-)

I'm not an audiophile, I don't know the best players for audio. If you're really interested in audio quality, post something in the home theater section, surround sound or home theater setup & planning maybe. The audiophiles hang out more in home theater than home video.

The 3910 (which I have) has been replaced by the 3930, which soundwise and picturewise should be (according to tests and reviews) another significent improvement over its predessor. I have not heard/seen the Marantz 7600, but have read many good reviews. The 2910 is now the 2930 which is also an improvement I believe. If money wasn't the issue I take the 3930, but sound quality is really up to your ears as we all hear a little differently and have different tastes.

Although synergy might suggest marrying your receiver with the 7600.

Be aware that Denon's track record for reliability on DVD player's hasn't been very good.
