Not feeling like waiting for a disc to burn? Throw a bunch of tunes on a USB thumb drive and play back directly, using the front-panel USB input.

Sony DVPNS725P Progressive-Scan DVD/CD Player

Sony DVPNS725P Progressive-Scan DVD/CD Player Review



Sony DVPNS725P Progressive-Scan DVD/CD Player Feature

  • Single-disc DVD player with support for DVD-Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 CD
  • Progressive-scan video output renders seamless, flicker-free images on high-definition and HD-ready TVs
  • Precision Drive 2 with Dynamic Tilt Compensation improves readability of damaged discs
  • 12-bit video DAC with 108 MHz processing for pristine video (through component-video, S-video, and composite-video outputs)
  • Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel digital surround decoding and output (for use with compatible AV receivers and speaker systems)
High-end video performance can be yours with Sony's affordable, progressive-scan DVP-NS725P DVD player. The versatile unit plays just about any disc out there--including DVD-Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, and DVD+RW--and also plays hours of music from MP3 files burned to CD-R/CD-RW discs.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DVP-NS725P stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs through Sony's Precision Cinema Progressive de-interlacer (scanning) with 3:2 pulldown processing. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24-frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture. Composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television.

Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can also be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each of RCA coaxial and Toslink optical) for a simpler connection to a compatible AV receiver (digital-audio interconnects are not supplied).

Precision Drive 2 provides a mechanism for reading DVDs that are in less-than-perfect condition, eliminating errors in playback due to imperfect, scratched, or warped discs. DVD resume memory kicks in whenever you stop a DVD. Later, when you come back to it, the player will pick up right where you left off before. The player holds resume points for up to 40 discs.

Other playback options include 10-second instant replay, quick setup, DVD/CD Text, a digital video enhancer, digital video EQ (equalization), custom parental control memory for 40 discs, Advanced SmoothScan and SmoothSlow Modes, and multidisc resume (up to 6 discs).

What's in the Box
DVD player, RMT-D153A remote control, two AA batteries, an analog audio/composite-video cable, and user's manual. Sony presents the DVP-NS725P DVD Player. Offering Dolby® Digital and dts® Decoding Compatibility, 12 Bit Video DAC with 108Mhz Processing with NSV, and MP3/CD-R/CD-RW, DVD-RW/-R (Video Mode), and DVD+RW/+R Playback, a Precision Drive 2 System with Dynamic Tilt Compensation, and Precision Cinema Progressive (480P) Output , this DVD player packs features that enable a picture more faithful to the source. Additional features include TV Virtual Surround, 4 Surround Modes, Block Noise Reduction, a Digital Video Enhancer, Digital Video EQ, and Custom Picture Mode. Utilize the Title and Chapter Viewer, Advanced SmoothScan and SmoothSlow modes, and Instant Replay and Instant Search for convenience while you watch. Movie theater entertainment comes home with the DVP-NS725.
