Sony DVP-S7700 DVD Player
Manufacturer: Sony ProductGroup: CE Binding: Electronics Product Features:
ASIN: B00000JSEW ![]() |
Product Description
Sony's DVP-7700 is incredibly stable, thanks to an anti-resonant chassis in honeycomb configuration and cast-iron isolating feet. The audio section gets its own circuit board of rigid glass epoxy to resist distortions. An R-Core power transformer minimizes hum radiation. Unique to Sony is a smoother fast forward/reverse scan, easily manipulated via the remote jog dial. There's a circuit to reduce noise from digital video, which may be especially helpful for lower-quality DVD transfers. Component video outputs complement your high-end display. And CDs get attention from the 7700 as well, with discrete lasers for DVD and CD, and a variable analog low-pass filter optimizes cut-off frequency for wider frequency response and minimum noise.Amazon.com Product Description
Critics who rarely agree on anything have hailed Sony's first DVD-video player, the DVP-S7000, as the reference standard. Now Sony has redefined the standard with the DVP-S7700. A new DSP servo LSI, new 96-kHz/24-bit audio capability, new DTS digital output, and new refinements in construction and convenience make the DVP-S7700 worth checking out.Customer Reviews:
Is it possible to fall in love with a DVD player?.......2002-12-15
Let's talk picture quality - I was really impressed. The image (via both S-Video and Component) was tremendous. Rich, vibrant colors and deep, detailed blacks. I saw no artifacting at all - the player just crunched right through even the toughest scenes. The hyperdrive scene of Lost In Space looked phenomenal. The whole sequence is white-washed with bright sunlight, yet no artifacting was visible, and plenty of detail was still apparent. On the other hand, the dark interiors of Star Trek: First Contact were nicely conveyed by the 7700, with a good range of contrast and plenty of shadow detail. The warm hues of The English Patient were beautiful in appearance, with lustrous golds, reds and browns rendered, and nicely accurate flesh-tones. As I've seen with DVD in general, the S-Video picture looked to have a slightly crisper, edgy quality to it, and very slightly more saturated color. The Component signal, on the other hand, was more film-like, and had more accurate color rendition - I definitely preferred it.
So how about the audio performance, you may be wondering? It's equally good. There are dual analog outputs, as well as a coaxial digital and an optical digital out (there are no on-board audio decoders). The player features the much-loved Sony Audio Priority selection feature, whereby the player automatically finds the 5.1 track on most DVDs (with the exception of some titles from Paramount, for example, where this feature has been software-disallowed on the disc itself). The 7700 also reads the proper flags on DTS-encoded DVDs, allowing you to output the sound data to an outboard DTS decoder. I saw no problems with audio sync whatsoever.
As for audio CDs, believe it or not, the 7700 performed as well as my stand-alone Sony CD player. The sound was rich and full, with little of the edgy quality that some DVD players add to CD audio. I was really surprised at this too.
The Sony DVP-S7700 is simply the best DVD player I've yet had the privilege to use.

Poor Reliability and Warranty.......2002-10-19
My suggestion is, buy a more reliable product, not a Sony. Check out what the warranty, when you purchase. Select a product with 1 year parts and labor. Otherwise, find out what the manufacturer charges for warranty service.
Watch out for deceptive warranty policies.
Best DVP for the money.......2002-04-02
Top notch picture quality along with easy to use remote control. I've actullay got this hooked up to an older Pioneer receiver with older speakers and the sound is outstanding.
The picture quality with still settings is wonderful and the jog function makes this player well worth the higher cost. Don't bother with lower models, after looking at the picture produced by this one you will truly apppreciate the additional expense.
Top Notch all the way around!

Product Description
The D-Link Stackable Layer 2 Managed Switch, 48-Port 10/100Mbps with 2-Combo 10/100/1000Mbps SFP Slots. MODEL: DES-3550 VENDOR: D-LINK FEATURES: Stackable 48-port Switch Managed stackable layer 2 switch with (48) 10/100Base-T ports, plus (2) 10/100/1000 Copper/SFP ports. D-Link s DES-3550 is a high-performance, managed, stackable Layer 2 switch that provides an ideal solution for workgroups and departments. The D-Link Single IP Management (SIM) allows to cluster up a virtual stack of up to 32 DES-3526 and/or DES-3550 dispersed switches with fewer distance limitation through a single IP address. The clustering environment spans buildings, making it perfect for business that requires multiple building deployment. The (48) 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet ports allow desktops to access network resources through flexible 2 Gig uplinks. The entire virtual stack can be managed via a single IP address for simplified network administration. Utilizing an 13.6Gbps switch capacity and support for 8,000 MAC addresses, the DES-3550 Stackable Layer 2 Switch is a wire-speed, high performance switch ideal for workgroups or departments. The DES-3550 supports port trunking with up to 6 trunk groups with 2 to 8 ports in each group per stack. Port trunking enables business users to increase availability and aggregated bandwidth between servers and/or other switches, optimizing the transport of business critical data. The DES-3550 can utilize either the 10/100Mbps or the 1 Gbps port to cluster up to 32 units within a D-Link SIM stack. By widely supporting IEEE approved specifications, the DES-3550 Stackable Layer 2 Switch leverages your existing investment in a multi-vendor environment, while maximizing compatibility of mission critical features such as, Spanning Tree (802.1d), QoS (802.1p/ DiffServ/TCP&UDP port number), VLANs (802.1Q), and network management (SNMP/RMON/BOOTP/Telnet/Web).
