    It's listed at 230 dollars at that link. Here's where it's listed at 80...I had to go to the clearance section of their site to find it.

    That's a great deal on what looks to be a pretty solid universal player. I'd be tempted to pick one up if I didn't have several other mods on the back burner right now. If they still have some in stock a little later down the road though, I might pick one up. I could use a new DVD player for my bedroom, and this would work very nicely.

    Thanks for the correction.

    You can also make this Yamaha into a region-free player

    According to a mention on sa-cd.net, this model was introduced back in 2005. Therefore, it's not going to give you HDMI or any other updated Dolby/dts surround decoding. On the other hand, if all you're after is SACD/DVD-A/CD/DVD player from a reputable manufacturer, then this looks to be a good buy.
