Looking for
a Toshiba region free dvd player but confused on which one to
get? There are so many options out there it is hard to make
a decision, and every website seems to offer something slightly
different. Currently there are many Toshiba models being sold
in the market that are region free. Toshiba makes models for
different parts of the world and gives different model numbers
for each player. Many players being sold as region free are
imports which are modified for region free and then sold here in
the USA. Others are USA models that are modified and sold as
region free. Most websites don't bother to share this
information with their customers, but after our techs have
opened and analyzed the quality of all these players, we have
found that this information is vital to make a educated decision
on which one to go with. Some imports are a little cheaper then
the USA models as most of the time they are made slightly
inferior to USA models. However there are some models of imports
which are pretty good as well. The USA models are generally made
with better features and more expensive parts just because the
manufacturers know that consumers in the USA are generally
looking for a good quality unit and willing to pay a little
extra, while many imports from other parts of the world are made
with cheaper parts and are intended for sale in those countries
at cheaper prices. Below is a useful list of Toshiba model dvd
players that we carry and that we stock. We have listed
important aspect of the player to help you choose which is right
for you and have also listed the average rating our techs have
given to these players out of 10. Our techs have opened, tested,
and reviewed each player to help you make a educated decision.

SD-550 reproduces surround sound fidelity and sonic
realism from your DVD soundtracks.

the component output to your projector, plasma
and/or LCD/CRT televisions.

Video, DVD-R/W, DVD+R, CD, CD-R/W, MP3, WMA, and

Worst
DVD Player Ever!!!!,
....,
Reviewer: (Los Angeles, CA USA)
I'd give it zero stars, if I could. Stay well
away. It's a flawed design. The tray itself was skimped on -- it's got
about half the lip of a normal DVD tray, the tolerances are all bad --
it's the single worst piece of consumer equipment I've ever seen.
I had to jiggle the tray to get a test DVD in it, then turn it over and
physically shake it to get the DVD out.
I have been pleased with Toshiba players in the past, so the lack of
quality in this one completely blindsided me.
I Exchanged it for a Toshiba SD-760 and it was much better. I paid a
little more money, but at least I can watch my movies.
