Sony DVD madness.


So when I go to buy a DVP-S7700 my dealer tells me to save my money and buy the CX850 instead. He claims that the 850 came out later and has newer (and better - although he knows that they aren't synonymous) video reproduction technology. Thing is, I don't especially want a 200 disk changer. So I went back to the research drawing board and noticed that there are two single disk Sony solutions (S560 and the shiney S570) as well as 2 five disk options (C660 and C670). Now from what I understand at least some of these came out after the 850, and hence might have some of the newer filters and video DACs. What I want to know is how these six (7700, 850, 670, 660, 570, 560) compare in video reproduction (I'm not too concerned with audio reproduction as I don't tend to critically listen when I'm watching movies - I save it for the music). I'm mostly interested in hearing from people who have auditioned at least two of these as it's a comparison that I'm looking for. TIA.

I recently purchased the 570. Its a toy compared to the DVP-7000 I sold. You get what you pay for
Well said,Shred is correct you get what you pay for.How much better can it get thats a beautful machine the 700.
I have the 7000 and 7700 in my system. I briefly had the S330 and the S560 (for 10 days each) and the audio performance on movies was terrible. Worst was the bass response followed by poor treble and dialogue intelligibility. Note that the 7700 is almost discontinued, expect to pick one up for around $700 brand new. Do not fall for one of those ads stating list of $1400 and asking $750 for used pieces. In my opinion a used piece should cost between $450 and $550 at most.
