I need some advice here.

I'm thinking of getting Pioneer 989AVI but someone here mention that Denon 2930 is a better player. I know that Denon 2930 can play divx files and can upconvert to 1080p whereas 989AVI can't but in terms of picture and sound quality, is Denon 2930 better? My tv can only support up to 1080i so the upconversion to 1080p is a useless feature for me.

Can a 600 pound sterling player (Denon 2930) better than a 800 pound sterling player (Pioneer 989AVI)? Furthermore, Denon 2930 is selling like RM3200 here whereas Pioneer 989AVI is selling like RM2900. So which player should i choose?

BTW, anyone know any shop in Klang Valley that are selling XBox360 HDDVD add on? Being looking around but cannot find one.

Denon 2930 < RM3000? Are u sure?

Just went to Desa Home Theater and they quote me RM4300 for this player and that is after discount price. The list price is actually RM5400.

I didn't mixed up. 2930 is selling RM4300 and 3930 is around RM7500 here in KL.

Anyway, if Penang can get RM3k, i dun mind travel there since i can save so much. Can u tell me the shop name, address and contact no.?

Toshiba HD-DVD can only play region 1 dvd whereas my dvd collection is 50% region 1 and 50% region 2, so not suitable.

PS3 upscaling is better than any other dvd player that i own.

The price for DVLX50 is RM3,999.00
