Sony DVP-NS710H-B 1080p Upscaling DVD Player- Black reviews:
Rating: Upconversion really works.
I did some internet research on upconverter DVD players and compared the Sony NS710, Toshiba XDE500 and Samsung 1080P9. Depending on reviews and comments I read, each of these have their pros and cons and were rated pretty evenly so it was a matter of price, convenience and personal preference. I ended up with the Sony simply because I already own a Sony Receiver and I thought it could result in reduced remote control clutter.
Since my Receiver isn’t HDMI able, I connected the player straight to the TV via HDMI. The coax audio output went straight to the Receiver. I have both coax digital and optical audio inputs to my receiver, so not having the optical out didn’t make a difference to me. The in general picture quality of this player was quite remarkable, it was certainly comparable to the 720p signal I received from my cable service, not quite the Blue Ray level but observably a step or two better than a non upconverting player which I had connected to the TV previous to to get this one or normal SD broadcast.
Set up was plug and play. There were quite some modifications available e.G. To perfectly sync the audio with the video, etc. But I found that I didn’t need much adjusting to make everything work. The initialization time to read the DVD was quite short, about the same as the old DVD player it replaced. The unit itself was quite thin and light with minimal controls on the front face. Most of the controls have to be accessed with the remote. The remote control for my audio receiver took care of normal player operation.
The performance of this unit confirms my choice to put off my Blue Ray player buy. Now I can wait till they freeze their standards and when the prices for the players and BD DVDs come down to a more reasonable level.

The sony dvd player is performing great. Easy to set up although you need another cable and works good.
Rating: Great player!
My girlfriend newly bought a refurbished 42″ 1080p Westinghouse TV and wanted to get an upscaling DVD player after many coercion from me, but was restricted as far as money go. Saw this among some others at Best purchase and decided to come home and check out upscaling DVD players online before buying. Well let me just say this is the best $60 I think anybody can use up if looking for a dedicated upscaling DVD player. The picture is extraordinary and looks nearly like a Blu ray on a big HD TV. We watched Black Hawk Down on DVD and were blown away by the clearness this little man offered.
You’re making the right choice if you decide to pick one of these up!
Rating: Great picture
I bought this player to get a quality DVD player. It exceeded my expectations. I may have paid less, but I wanted something that I could rely on. I do not have an HD TV, but wanted a DVD player that I could use if I upgrade afterward to HD. With my regular TV set the picture is great. Total setup time was about five minutes. Unplug the old DVD player, plug in the new. Everything worked flawlessly right out of the box. Hopefully, it’ll be like that for a while. It’s a Sony, right??
Rating: Great DVD Player with a not so great remote control
Pros:
Very calm DVD player
Really does upconvert my daughter’s Barney DVDs look fantastic!
Picture quality gives Blu Ray really good competition, on non HD DVDs
Low profile, thin player
Sleek design
Quick and easy to connect to TV
Cons:
Remote could use a redesign
Control buttons on unit are hard to see

When people watch a movie playing on this Sony Upscaling DVD Player on my Samsung LN52A550 52 Inch 1080p LCD HDTV, they’re surprised when I tell them how inexpensive it was. They assume it is a Blu Ray player.
