.'s Review of Acoustic Solutions DVD-421

21st Jul 2002

Overall Rating

4 stars
  • Value for money
    5 stars
Good Points

Very Cheap,
Multi-region,
This will play most formats,
Macrovision CAN be disabled (without any electronic wizardry),
Small footprint.


Bad Points

Poor build quality, this will not last forever.
In the middle of a film, it does play catch up but this doesn't destroy your enjoyment.


General Comments

Okay, like many others here the Acoustic Solutions DVD 421 DVD player is my first foray into DVD players and I like it so far. I don't have the money to buy a Sony or Pioneer and I'm not really into Home Cinema, plain old stereo suits me fine.

This is unashamedly a budget system, multi-region at less than £70, can't be bad.

Especially if you realize that this machine can EASILY be configured to turn Macrovision off and therefore for those who want it provides the ability to copy from DVD to video tape.

The "build quality" was not great but then again I don't plan on bashing it about. Also, in the middle of the film the machine does pause to play catch up but this is not a major floor for something this cheap and possibly could be righted in a future firmware release.

Overall, I am more than satisfied with it, no nonsense and value for money.
