If this is in the wrong forum or not allowed I apologize in advance. I have no affiliation with A&B Sound so there's no financial motivation for me.
I was under the impression that multi-region DVD players were not sold in stores. Imagine my surprise when I saw one for under $50 in this week's A&B Sound flyer. The flyer prices are good through Aug 30.
The "brand" is CIMA. The model name is DIVX-595. The basic specs are: DIVX/DVD/DVD+R/RW/MP3/VCD/CD/CD-R/CD-RW/JPEG/KODAK PHOTO.
Lots of outputs including:
5.1ch
digital coaxial
digital optical
VGA
Composite
component
has front panel MIC jacks apparently for Karaoke support.
PAL/NTSC
110-220V 50/60Hz
I have not plugged it in yet so I can't speak to the quality. The guy at A&B Sound suggested using it as a secondary DVD (specifically for other regions). He gave me a code (apparently not documented) to make the region switch.
By the way the use of the word "hot" in the title was not saying they are stolen goods. It's more a double meaning about my belief (and maybe of others too of their unavailability in stores and that the price seems amazing for the features offered.
