    The DVD421 is quite simply a little gem of a machine for the price, I purchased it for £54.99 from Richer Sounds. I was fairly impressed with the picture quality through an S-Video lead, but the 'normal' setting through a Scart lead wasn't all that good at all. If you have an S-Video socket ...

    The A S 421 is excellent value for money..........but, mine only lasted 2 months and then took on a life of its own.
    Sometimes it refused to recognise the dvd or anything else for that matter.
    Sometimes it played fine and then just stopped and refused to start again.
    Other times it became jerky o ...

    Other reviewers have commented on the box being light and panel buttons needing a hard push, but I've no problems here - considering the small size, it's heavy enough to stay put, especially with a Digibox on top.
    The remote control does have a narrow angle of operation - you need to be within abou ...

    So far so good - bought mine last week from Richer for £69 and it plays everything I want (even though the muppet from Richer said it would not play VCD in order for me to buy a more expensive model) with the hack codes, see

    I boought this from Richer sounds for eighty quid (timed it badly). At first was chuffed. Good picture, good soound but after a few minutes of watching I could see that there was something not right. Where there should've been smooth colour gradients there was staggered effects. When I was watching ...

    I originally had an Alba 108 purchased from Argos, but I wasn't happy when it turned out that it couldn't play VCDs, despite the picture on the back of the catalogue that featured a version of the model that could. I found out about the hack from this site, but found it too annoying and unreliable, ...

    I purchased this Acoustic Solutions DVD 421 DVD player from Richer Sounds in Plymouth. I was surprised at the small footprint of the unit. Having set it up, I tested it with both audio CDs and DVD films. Picture quality with the DVDs is impressive, even when zoomed in. Some older music CDs seem to h ...

    The performance of this Acoustic Solutions DVD 421 DVD player is very good. Sound is punchy and crisp, but can be a little hard with vocals, especially with 'sh' and 'ch' sounds (I'm comparing to my Marantz 6000OSE though). The only problems I found with it is the pausing for a second in the middle ...

    After having an LG 2880, I decided i wanted to go multi-region after seeing this Acoustic Solutions DVD 421 DVd player in Richer Sounds. So I went down to buy and when i got home unpackaged this and sat down comparing the size of the 421 to the 2880 for 5 minutes! This player is tiny!

    Set it up a ...

    I just bought this Acoustic Solutions DVD 421 DVd player from Richer Sounds at London Bridge (www.richersounds.co.uk) for £69.95. This unit is so compact that the box that it came in is as big as some of the DVD players that I've seen!

    On opening the box it comes with manual and remote plu ...
