ted.'s Review of Encore DV-450

15th Jan 2002

Overall Rating

4 stars

    4 stars
Good Points

User-friendly remote control with none of the stickiness associated with many budget dvd players.


Bad Points

Grainy images. The encore-dv450 handles detailed images with ease, but give it large blocks of colour to deal with and it suffers terribly.


General Comments

I picked up one of these Encore DV-450 DVD players at a bargain price. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase. The grainy, almost pixellated blocks of colour on some dvd's proved annoying though, as I found my eye drawn to the offending areas. Sound quality is impressive when linked up to even the most basic speaker system.
The cd tray looks like it could be a cause for concern - discs sit loosely in the tray which wobbles uncertainly whenever you open or close it. On several occasions, the machine was unable to read discs and had to be prompted several times. However, you get what you pay for, and I am more than happy with this as a budget player.
