Advice for sub-£100 2nd hand DVD Player?

I am now regretting my decision to sell my Pioneer 545 DVD player as part of the switch from VHS to DVD recorders!

I now use a Panasonic DMS-ES10 for DVD playback and I seem to have lost some audio performance. Sounds pretty flat now

So, I am looking for something second-hand to play DVDs that isn't going to break the bank (£100 tops)

The rest of the kit is Denon AVR-3805 and Velodyne Deco sub/sats.
  • Wont be used for CDs
  • Doesn't need Progressive Scan
  • Just need strong audio and video performance with DVDs

I plan to buy either in these classifieds or EBay - depends what's on offer!

Any suggestions of what to look for gratefully received

You can get a brand new Pioneer 575 at Richer Sounds for that price or if you want HDMI then try a new Toshiba SD-350E.

Opinions on these......

Thanks for the suggestion. Scouting round on EBay, it looks like I could get, amongst many other things,.....

Pioneer 737
Pioneer 717
Sony NS-900V
Sony NS-930V

Any opinions on these?
