Have decided to purchase one of the follwing Panasonic series, either:
Panasonic dmres20d
Panasonic dmreh50
Panasonic dmreh60d
Ideally I would choose the 60d, but this will be down to the opinions of this group, specifiacally regarding fan noise.
I know a lot of AV people aren't bothered by fan noise. However I must have super sensitive hearing, becasue it really annoys me, and I'd rather have a crappy dvd recorder that's fairly silent, than a blue ray, triple freeview tuner, hdmi 500gb beast that sounds like a jet fighter plane taking off.
So basically what are peoples opinions on the fan noise regarding the above Pannys, or maybe people reckon another brand is quieter.
I'd also be intersted in whether any of the 3 models above continually have the fan on, even in standby mode or when only wathcing a dvd.
I'm assuming that the Panasonic dmres20d will be the quietest, due to no hdd
Many thanks
Jon
