“I was tempted when i saw one of these at Tesco at...”

written by steve. on 02/10/2001

Good Points
Picture ok although it struggles to deal with darker scenes and contrast.

Bad Points
Very poor sound. Maybe ok when hooked up to a mono tv but put through an av system or amp the sound is very poor.

General Comments
I was tempted when i saw one of these at Tesco at £99.99. Bargain i thought until i switched the thing on. The menu system looks like it was developed using a Sinclair Spectrum. The drive is noisy and picture quality is poor (for a DVD) as for the sound hmmm this was my biggest let down. I wasn't even tempted to put it in the kids bedroom so i took it back and got a full refund. From what i have heard Wharfdale is not the company it once was and this is proof of it.

Here is the puzzle given the above why do so many including a certain hi fi magazine give this machine such a high rating. HMMMMmmmmmm??????
