Moreover, it still has good audio qualities to deserve my recommendation. Taking into account the very low prices (discount), it's the best cost-benefit DVD player of the market right now.

The remote is fine and the selection of outputs is fine, too. As you'd expect, it has an HDMI output. If you're interested in upscaling, this is pretty much your best option. Remember that an HD-TV will upscale an image, too. All you're buying with this DVD player is a really good upscaling chip. <br />There are better upscaling DVD players available, but they're not much better: Oppo makes a really good one (DV-981 or something like that). I own an earlier Oppo and it has performed superbly for over four years. <br />So why not 5 stars? Well, it's a little overpriced. Please don't pay more than an Oppo for this. I got it on sale at Amazon a few weeks ago for less than a third of the MSRP. Also, it cannot be "hacked" to watch foreign DVDs. The instruction book makes a fuss about this player being able to display to PAL or NTSC, which suggests it should be multi-region capable, but I haven't managed to play my UK DVDs yet. <br />Lastly, Blu-Ray players are coming down in price. For this kind of money, you can buy a great Panasonic or LG player that will upscale a regular DVD and play a Blu-Ray disk in native 1080p. This Denon (and the Oppo) won't play Blu-Ray disks, so they're definitely not future-proof. This is an extremely nice DVD player and it’s really quite easy to obtain an upscaled picture on the TV.
