Comparison DVD Toshiba 3109 vs Pioneer DVF727

24.7.223.210

I know they are both different in that the former is not really a DVD changer. But dees the former have more capabilities than the latter. I have been to websites but do not understand all the tech stuff. I am cutting and pasting here for your convenience.
Cost isnt the main criteria since I would save money by not buying a CD changer if I went with the Pioneer multi disc DVD. I want to experience the best quality of DVD and audio on DVD movies. So that would be the deciding factor rather than price. Actually I have purchased the Toshiba DVD and the Pioneer regular CD changer but am considering returning both for the Pioneer DVD changer. However if I am getting a DVD player that is not as good at delivering quality sound and video as the Toshiba then I will stick to what I have. Cut and paste of both follow.
