    General comments: I thought this Yamaha DVD-S540 was a great DVD player, wonderful picture, etc, and was brilliant on my plasma. However, the other day it died and I was told would cost more to fix than buy a new one from Richer Sounds. Apparently the laser died. I wouldn't say I used this that often either, probably 2 or 3 films a week. I don't use it as a CD player, so in all honesty, it didn't get driven into the ground like some electrical goods I own. All in all, it's a good player and if you can pick one up cheap, then do so. I was just foolish enough to spend a lot on it from the outset thinking it would last me a good long time.

    It was the quality name, features and on-line price that attracted me to the Yamaha DVD-S540. My previous player had been a disappointment from an unknown manufacturer and had broken down after 18 months. I was astonished by the clear and crisp picture from the DVD-S540, the sound is also impressive with CDs and and 5.1 surround also coming across well. The range of features available are tremendous for the price, there is even progressive scan for those with very large screens; a feature normal ...
