Grundig GDV720 HT

Super easy to set up even without a manual (as child lost it). Excellent sound and image qulity. Brilliant for its price. Never had a problem with it.

Overall great machine.

Does its job.

Amazing sound.

Player gets quite hot.

Small hum from player (not really noticeable).

If I was to get another one I would have the player in the open, they don't like tight fitting cabinets or surrounds, it needs a lot of air due to the amp being inside the player for the speakers.

Grundig GDV720 HT - Good product for the price if a little tacky with its silver box and mirrored front. But has a great deal of functionality and is easy to hack. Don't know if it will out NTSC. Had mine for over a year; great kit if a little warm.

This Grundig GDV720 HT is a very good player, good value for money. I bought it 3 weeks ago and now enjoying superb sound quality. Picture quality is also more than avg. The only problem is it is not recognizing few DVDs. (All Region 2, bought from TESCO!!) Also it takes long time to load the DVD. Apart from that there is no problem. Overall very good system.

For the money you pay not a bad package.

There are good points and bad points as stated above but for people like myself that can't afford the best this is a good alternative, you get the dvd player and surround sound that you want for a reasonable price, if not for the buzzing noise would be very good.

Bought a Grundig GDV720 HT 24 hours ago for a good price (£137.00 - demonstration model). This is my first venture into DVD and I have to say that I'm impressed with this machine. Top class picture. Incredible sound. Loads of options. A lot of kit for the money.

good alround round unit! i got one for the mother in law (hahah) she has had no problems at all, she didnt even notice the fan running on the back of the unit!

if you want a cheap dvd system with all the gubbins dolby,dts etc etc get this set up!

Good overall unit.

For the price of this Grundig GDV720 HT, it is awesome. The picture and sound quality are both top notch. It plays all dvds from any region superbly, and it plays cd-r's with no comprimise in quality. I would highly recomend this to anyone looking for a quality budget home cinema system

All in all a good unit, the surround sound is good quality, the only downside is that if you go too high 45+ then the sub loops out and rattles but when the max volume is 50 who would really listen to it that loud. Admittedly it doesn't want to play VCD's I make or certain DVD's like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire interactive game, but with a region free hack it seems to sort these problems. I love the look of the main unit, a mirrored front when off but when on a nice LCD display. The power on button is a bit clunky but it does the job and is only small, but I keep it on standby all the time not needing to use the manual button. Very easy to wire up and the manual is more than helpful. Scart plug on the back so very easy to connect to TV. Plays MP3's, Radio (FM/MW), CD's and DVD,s with Dolby Digital 5.1 encoder built in. Best of all is the total customisation of the sound you receive, so many options.

Can't fault the unit, especially for the price. Very good indeed. Sub £200 unit punching well above its weight. You will not be displeased with it.
