If you’re in the market for a new DVD player but don’t want to jump on to the true HD bandwagon until prices drop a bit (or a lot), here’s a nice upconverting player that will do you almost as well.
Digital Trends The newest HD-DVD and Blu-ray video players are all the rage right now, with a large number of movie watchers jumping on either the HD-DVD or Blu-ray bandwagon. The sales of both types of players have been steadily climbing through the first half of 2007. But for those people who are not quite ready to jump on either bandwagon yet and shell out a few hundred dollars for a true high-definition player, upconverting DVD players still offer a low-cost alternative to obtaining near HD-quality playback of your existing DVD collection. Priced at about $200 USD, the Samsung DVD-HD960 is the flagship model of Samsung’s line of upconverting DVD players, and it offers a high-resolution, near HD alternative to investing in a much more expensive HD-DVD or Blu-ray player. But does it make sense for you to invest in this upconverting DVD player for your next home theater purchase? Read on to find the answer.
