Being a Denon DVD 2200 owner myself I would like to know if other 2200 owners have changed over to an up-scaling or HD player?

Hi, I had a 2200 with SDI mod used with a IscanHD. I've since sold this setup and got a Denon 3930ci.

The 2200 is a great universal player, perhaps you should keep it for it's SACD playback capability (if you're into mult-channel audio) and just get a HD-DVD/blu-ray player with good DVD upscaling features.

cheers

My 2200 is just about dead and I'm not too happy with Denon right now. I ordered an Oppo 981 and it is in transit right now.

Thanks for the replies. At the moment I'm undecided as to what to do next.

I am still using my 2200.

Doing a little rejigging of the system tho. I did have my 2200 and Pioneer Elite HDDPVR run into my Pio elite 54txi receiver via component and then out via component to my Panny 58 600U TV. Problem is that the video isn't very clear. I am therefore, after shutting everything down for two weeks while the cabinet gets built, to having component out from each unit to the TV.

I am hoping it allows ne to clean up the issue.

BUT still using the 2200.

1953, the 2200 puts out a great PQ. IMO, you are gaining only a little switching to an upscaling player, whereas, for not really that much more $$, you gain a lot by upgrading to high def (I paid $400 for the Tosh A2).

Since posting this thread I had the opportunity to compare my 2200 to a Sony, Yamaha and a Denon 757. Not one of those up-scalers produced the vivid color as the 2200.

Last week I found a Denon 2910 on closeout for $249! Would I gain much by going to this newer Denon?

Thanks,

IMO, no, you would not. The 3910, or even better, the 3930, would be better, or again, the Tosh A2 would be the best choice.
