I see a lot of you really like Denon DVD-1600, so I decided to introduce a different opinion.

For a short period of time I had both Denon DVD-1600 and Panasonic RP-82 in my system. I can honestly say that there was noting that Denon did better than Pany and it costs twice the money. So if the picture quality is your main concern I would definitely recommend Panasonic.

On the other hand, if you are in Hi-Res music and want the best of both worlds (DVD-a and SACD) and still want good picture performance, looks like that Yamaha DVD-S2300 is the way to go.

Of course if sound is your main concern and you can live with its picture there is (now relatively inexpensive) Pioneer Elite DV-45A, which I am very happy with.
