5986K? That's old model. New one is 5996K. Anyway don't feel bad coz I used to have 5986K and loved the player. Really good PQ and never had any problem with any disc I have ori or not.

What model you are currently using?

how much now for older model 5986K ?
who got the cheapest price for newer 5996k ?

Using Pioneer DV-600AV now. Getting another Pioneer also for my bedroom maybe DV-410 to replace my cap ayam one already koyak

Get the carefour dvd .. chap itik or ayam oso can play.

Cap ayam dvdp only for 29" CRT only hehe

I got it for RM 315 at alor setar

just want to know, how's the PQ on DV-600AV's compared to your previous 5986K

Better but not astoundingly better...just better
If you don't need the SACD/DVD-A capability....5986K is the best bang for your money.

compare 1080p upscaled thru 5986k to cap ayam thru component cable, how is the difference between ?
the reason i ask this because when I went to shops that played my DVD9 copy, thru 1080p upscaled hdmi, and compare to when i played at home thru component cable by the cap-ayam, I really can't tell very "much" difference. Maybe my mind cannot remember well and long enough.

Bad source = bad output no matter how expensive your player is. Use original bro then u'll see

yes, the DVD is original not rm5 copy.
so in this case, how ?

Bad cable

one thing is, my cap ayam got no hdmi port but only component.
if the difference not much then no point to spend few hundreds just for a little bit better PQ. I am seeking opinions....

From my opinion, the PQ between my former ordinary dvdp player (brand pioneer, forgot the model no.) with 5986K (using HDMI) is totally significant. Even though sdvd upscalling PQ is still far far away compared to BD or HDDVD, but watching hellboy 2 on both player, really can feel the difference.

Hi lordvega, thks for sharing. Looks like got difference, but did you use component cable for your pioneer player ?
I tried before, between composite yellow cable and component, they really make difference.

yes i used component for the pioneer dvdp

which dvd player can play avi file with srt subtitle files?anyone?

Hi Im m using Pioneer 610v

how is the 610v ? very good right ?

Very good PQ but it doesn't read disc as good as Philip 5986K. In other word its a bit fussy with disc condition.
