Cool guys, here's some of the standouts I've found (yeah, I've gone a bit crazy, haha):
Sony: DVP-S7000 (3) - Sony's first DVD player, ES quality, R-core transformer, same audio section as their CDP-XA7ES CD player. Found two thrifting, one eBay (early model w/ internal region/copy free DIP switches) DVP-S7700 - Follow-up model with DTS support, inferior build quality to 7000. DVP-NS900V - DVD/SACD, $15 mint thrift shop find. BDP-S1 - Their first Blu-ray player, bought "as-is", works fine. Denon: DVD-2910 - Region free DVD/SACD/DVD-A/CD DVD-955 - Same as 2910 but in silver, $25 thrift find, also region free. Toshiba: SD-6200 - Their top of the line "Dual Disc" two-disc DVD player. SD-5700 - Single disc version of the 6200 w/ DVD-Audio. SD-9100 - Their first 480p flagship DVD player SD-9200 (2) - Tank-like flagship DVD player, copper chassis, with DVD-Audio, one from eBay and one heavily marked up from a yard sale, rock solid though. HD-A1 - Their first HD DVD player. HD-A3 - Seems to be the one HD DVD model I see used the most. HD-A35 - Closeout purchase when HD DVD died. Panasonic: DVD-A320 - Their first flagship player, fantastic color reproduction for an early 480i player. DVD-RP81 - Progressive flagship player w/ DVD-Audio. DVD-S97 - Their last high performance DVD model before Blu-ray took hold, w/ DVD-Audio. DMP-BD10 - Their first Blu-ray player, 14-bit/297Mhz video DAC. Oppo: OPDV971H (2) - Bought one from Oppo, then found another for $15 at flea market. OPDV980H (2) - Bought one from Oppo, then found another for $5 at flea market, just last year. Samsung: DVD HD-1000 - Thirty-eight pound high end statement piece, first DVD player anywhere to offer 720p/1080i HD upscaling, R-core transformer, copper chassis, selectable Luxman audio DACs. Rare. BDP-1200 - HQV Reon processor, excellent HD upscaling of DVD. BDP-U5000 - Their first and only Blu-ray/HD DVD combo player, also with HQV Reon for DVD. JVC: XV-511 - Their first DVD player, well built but hard-set to incorrect NTSC black level (IRE 0 instead of 7.5). XV-BP1 - Their first Blu-ray player, released a bit later so it's not as handicapped as other early BD decks. Rare. Last edited by Damnation; 01-02-2016 at 01:09 PM. |
