Question OK can't stand it anymore the time has come...

Hi chaps well I've been using the Xbox360's add on Hd-dvd player but I'm finding the noise from the 360's fan really annoying whilst watching my films.

So the time has come to move on up to one of the Tosh's players...right now on Ebay I'm watching a few EP30's and one EP35 and finally a XE1 what would you recomend of those 3? Pic quality is my only concern cheers.

If you have no need for bitstreaming HD audio to an amp, I would go for the EP30.

Thanks mate I don't at this moment have any real interest in bitstreaming HD audio.... however when and if I could get a speaker set up that is wireless, and thats to say one that can be rigged up without masses of cables everwhere then I'm really not fussed about the audio side of things I hate looking at cables running here there and everywhere call it a " cable phobia " lol.
Cheers again for your advice

Get an XE1 if you can Comes highly recommended.

And I would avoid wireless speakers, I'm sure you'll get plenty of advice in the Speaker Forum but IMO not only do most wireless speakers need a big fat mains cable attached to them, but you'll pay a lot more for the same quality of sound than from tradditional speakers I expect.
