Then the sound was undynamic,and constricted,without DEEP bottom potential. Remote is a little weak. I have always had great luck with Mitsubishi products. This one re-enforces it. I decided to look for a DVD which did not have an onboard decoder.
Picture is great and the sound quality is good.
My CD player still sounds better than the DVD for most music CDs. I did not purchase it for music. I thought they may be able to put more money in other areas of the unit. It plays troublesome DVDs without a glitch. I am not disappointed with this purchase.
