I had been searching for a CD player for several weeks and surprisingly found all players in the market are too expensive, bulky, and manufactured at least a decade ago. Then I turned my attention to DVD players as an alternative. There are hundreds of options so I tried to narrow my search to those having digital output so that I could use a separate digital to analog converter (DAC) and get really good sound. I was unable to find a convincing DAC with optical or coaxial input. Other options included an HDMI audio extractor or even a Zoom U-44 used in standalone mode but these only added more complexity and required adapters. I lowered my "audiophile" expectations for the DVD player and forgot about the digital audio idea. Then after extensive search I found LG DP132H. It was inexpensive and small. It seems to be the only player around capable of ripping your discs to MP3... this is a nice plus because these days you have to have a computer and a DVD/CD drive to do so. So far I have used the LG DP132H for a couple of weeks to play my CDs. It works fine. The ripping is excellent too. I have no complains about sound quality either. I like the remote: it is not tiny as the Sony DVD remotes or the remote of my Fire TV stick. Also I can control my old LG TV with it! I like it is lightweigth too but it feels a bit fragile despite it has metal chasis. Regarding the graphical interface (menus and so on), it feels like a 2000's interface... not an issue though. Actually I don't really use the DVD with the TV, I just turn the player on, insert a disc, and push play in the remote. My player is hooked to my speaker via RCA. I haven't use it to play DVDs yet... given it comes from a renowned brand, it should work. Go grab one of these before it's too late! Read more
The IG DVD player works as good or better than advertised. There are some settings that I am just not acquainted with but I'm over 90 years old the younger generation will use them all. Truly a bargain with better response than ever expected. Truly much easier set up than ever expected. Read more
I burn through DVD players like crazy, if you have kids , you know, this DVD player is almost always on, the kids put in a movie or cartoons and set it on repeat and sometimes forget it and it runs for ever, this DVD player played frozen for a week and a half, no problem, not even warm, And I had this gem for a year or two, great buy,,, Read more
We liked the first one so much that we ordered a second one for another TV. Good picture and compact size. Only comes with RCA cables but will connect via HDMI. Keys on remote are very small but it’s a full function remote and works great with our LG television sets. Read more
This DVD has exceeded our expectations! Easy to use. No cord provided. Easy to set up and use. Great picture quality and a good price. Small and takes up very little room. No problems at all just amazement that we can watch our old DVD's. I honestly can not say anything bad about this player. High quality and so nice. We had it going in less than 2 hours. Read more
Got this along with a bunch of great movies as the industry is following the globalist wave of global you’ll own nothing and have to pay forever for something you could buy and own in the past. So instead of paying providers I can watch movies for free any time as often as I wish. I won’t be manipulated! Read more
Piece of junk! Had it 19 days and it's freezing up, and jammed with a disc inside. Refuses to open disc tray. Gonna try unplugging it, but obviously not worth the money... Read more
