Sony DVP-NS715P DVD Player

Pros: Excellent picture quality, connections, TV control on the remote, features, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3
Cons: Price could be lower, no WMA, no zoom, few scan speeds

The Sony DVP-NS715P is cheaper than its predecessor (NS700P) and features progressive scan with 2:3 pulldown. It continues Sony’s tradition of pricing their products higher than competition and is more expensive than Panasonic RP62.

...

Pros: Smooth progressive-scan, excellent quality, reads CD/DVD, CDR/CDRW And MP3
Cons: No Zoom... not much else. A player with all the features for less$$

Finally - Sony has answered all our wishes and has stepped up to the plate adding some extremely nice features into a player that is actually priced cheaper than the one it replaces, the NS700P, which I reviewed earlier:

Pros: looks, performance, engineering, PRICE!!
Cons: none!

I recently bought the Sony DVP-NS715P to replace my Pioneer MB345 ($380) and even though it is half the price, the Sony outperforms it, and most other DVD players. First, off, the majority of all progressive scan DVD players out right now are well over...

Pros: Finally, a inexpensive version of the old DVP-NS700P that plays MP3,DVD-R/RW
Cons: I hope it is more durable than the Sony DVP-S363 that I am replacing!

I finally decided not to upgrade my Sony S363 to a progressive scan model until it broke last week. Despite the 5 year warranty I had on the model, I decided to check out the dvd players at the Good Guys and to see if the Sony DVP-NS700P dropped in...

Pros: Progressive Scan, CDR-RW playback option. Power button.
Cons: MP3 function doesn't work. Optic out picky. Too expensive.

So, no bologna...there I was...buying another DVD player because my last one finally did what I thought it might do (see my other Sony reviews). I was happy to have put up the money for insurance at Circuit City after my 2 DVD players back...
