Comments about Toshiba Toshiba Black HD DVD Player:

As an early adopter I purchased the Sony BDP-S1 for [$] last December, thinking Blu-ray will win the format war. With the studios recently changing their priorities it looks line this battle will go on forever.The solution? Buy an HD-DVD player and have both formats. At this price point, it is almost a no-brainer other than you might need more switching inputs than your reveiver offers (but where are the universal players?).As for the Toshiba HD-A2 player, the HD picture is stunning and there are no artifacts noticable with regular programming material. Maybe with test suites but who cares? How can you lose? Since the Sony consumed the 5.1 receiver input, I didn't need the higher end model with that feature.

Comments about Toshiba Toshiba Black HD DVD Player:

This unit gives you outstanding picture and sound at an affordable price. I paired this with an Onkyo 604 receiver and an Optoma HD70 front projector on a 106" screen. Even though the HD70 is native 720p, I set the HD-A2 for 1080i and I get a great picture run through HDMI connectors. The better the source, the better the picture.
The sound is great also. The TrueHd sound comes through the Onkyo as HDMI PCM.

I was weary of getting into the HD-DVD / Blu-Ray format war but this player seems like a good risk to me. I'm very happy with the performance.

HD DVD's are amazing, as expected. The surprise was how much better standard DVD's looked compared to a standard DVD player. My old DVD's look almost as good as HD.
