never buy this machine you will be very displeased, sharpness is fuzzy, color calibration is off and too much pink, the tracking is off, hatchet lines on top edge and line on bottom edge, horizontal sweep frequency is off, 3 out of 3 burns no play, too complicated machine for the average person, same poor old fwd rev clutch mech. setup config is too technical, you have to know what DTS is and for, and how to set it up, you need to know settings for bit rate, pulse code modulation, bitstream, Playback compression PBC, dics formatting, initializing, chapter setup, and name, finalizing, input output jacks layed out poorly, no tech support, no local repair service, no over burn prevention, does not accept dual layer DVD’s, poor D/A conversion 50meg compare to sony’s 104 meg, no way to adjust the tracking, copies appear slightly dark compare to the original, I would not recommend this machine to others.
