Here is my most recent purchase that i got at best buy today it is Insignia 50 inch plasma flat screen tv it is 1080p i got it cause it was on sale for a good price and i wanted a blu ray player and if you bought a tv you got one for 100 dollars so yeah here it is and i will have review videos of everything i have bought coming up sometime.
Yes, if you research, you’ll find conflicting reviews, but this Refurbished Blu-ray player I purchased via TigerDirect from Amazon.com is absolutely amazing; in fact, the “upconverting” of regular wide screen DVDs brings new life to the films; the colors (on my plasma display) are superior to many *theater* experiences I’ve endured (of course the best quality is Blu-ray].
In this economic environment, I can recommend a refurbished product from Samsung via TigerDirect; you can download the manual and software from Samsung’s website. The product was shipped with a manual on CD, but I had already downloaded it before I received it.
One final note: I read elsewhere that a purchaser returned his Blu-ray player because “bands” were still visible on wide screen movies. Yes, this player doesn’t have a zoom function. However, the television should have (as my plasma does) functions to adjust “H Size”, “H Position”, and “V Position”, where H and V mean Horizontal and Vertical. With the resolution of Blu-ray, blowing up the image doesn’t really “degrade” the picture quality. So, check your television manual. Read more...
