    Thats a great price, I would be in on it as well. It's a nice sounding cd player as well. You would be surprised.

    That's been the price for 3 months now, and it's actually gone up. Got mine from 6th Ave. for $262 in February.

    One other thing you sould be aware of if you choose this player, is that some of them have issues that require you send the unit in for service, luckily mine isn't one of them:

    I almost purchased one of these used for cheap since I have an Elite receiver but there are many reports of issues with DVD layer changes even with the latest updates up until Feb/Mar so I decided to hold off until the Oppo BD83 comes out which is anyday now.

    Still if you don't mind the DVD issue on the Pioneer (hopefully it has been fixed) it's supposed to be a nice sounding player with good picture quality.
    Pioneer 50" Plasma (PDP 5080 HD)

    Panasonic BD35

    Monster MP HTS1600 Power Conditioner

    Same thing I read Falcon, supposedly nice player. Not sure if the update came out or not for it to decode DTS MA audio yet.
