General Comments
The JVC TH-V70R is a great system. I love it.
In particular the picture is much better than my old player, and the sound is also great. Listening to CDs with the prologic II in surround sound is very effective.
The only negative I've found so far is the size of the subwoofer, but if you can hide it away then no problem.
You can get it for only 349 at richer sounds, which is for multiregion, which I think is a bargain. For the same money you could go for the Sony DAVS550 which has a habit of swallowing discs, or the Pioneer NSDV77 or 88 which look great, but don't quite have the same features as the JVC.
