The best value for money.  |
|
I can only agree with previous reviewers. This is my first time shopping with Amazon for electronic goods. It was mailed on a Sunday and arrived by Royal Mail on Monday, what speed considering I did not pay first class postage. Not only was it adapted for all regions DVD it did not need any fine tuning when it arrived all this and no earache about useless extended warranty you get wit other national chains. All this and £30 cheaper taan Dixons or Currys.

Fantastic player for the money. I bought the previous model last year for twice the price and thought of this as little more than a second player for my second TV but rather is it just as feature-packed and has met my needs entirely. Contemporary, slick design too, sits alongside any other silver equipment nicely.

Technical note |
This player is premodified. Most of the Sony NS430s you will see elsewhere will not be - Sony do not sell multi-region players as such, certainly not the type where you just enter a code on the remote control. As a consumer, you need to pay around £30 to modify a Sony NS430. Amazon have done this for you, and somehow they are still selling it cheaper than other retailer sell unmodified players.The other important note is that NTSC format DVDs (ie US / region 1) will only play properly with a TV that can cope with NTSC signals. The NS430 reads NTSC fine, but outputs an NTSC signal, rather than converting it to PAL for you. The usual result of using a TV that is not NTSC compatible, is a black & white picture. Most newish TVs can cope with NTSC signals, but do check if you are likely to use region 1 DVDs regularly.
