Toshiba SD-2109 DVD Player Description
 Product Description
Toshiba has pared an excellent DVD player down to its essentials for
high-quality sound and image playback, making the SD-2109 a no-frills
alternative to higher-priced models. With Dolby Digital and DTS digital-audio
outputs, as well as composite, S-Video, and ColorStream component video outputs,
we found the SD-2109 well-equipped to power any burgeoning home-theater system.
While more flexible DVD machines offer features such as analog
decoding from Dolby Digital sources, karaoke-microphone inputs, and headphone
jacks, the SD-2109 is by no means bereft of features. Besides traditional DVD
features such as camera-angle selection, subtitling, and language preference,
the Toshiba SD-2109 also offers three levels of zoom and reverse, and
forward-play speeds from 1/8x to 30x. The Toshiba SD-2109 also does a great job
locating specific sections on a disk through title and chapter skip as well as a
convenient "time search" feature.
A nice touch available on this and other Toshiba DVD players
is Video Black Level expander circuitry. With this function you can expand the
picture's overall contrast range to derive richer, deeper blacks and finer tonal
gradation, both of which we found enhanced low-light viewing. As expected, the
SD-2109 proved extremely easy to set up and navigate, tiny remote and all. A
super entry-level DVD player!
