Bought a Samsung yesterday and what a noise from the fan, taking it back to Comet today any ideas for a quiet DVD player circa £200-250

Thanks

If you are spending 200-250, why not get a blu-ray player?

Go blu-ray, even if you can't use it now, you may use it in the future.

Blu-ray is high definition. Very high quality pictures when you buy or rent blu-ray versions of movies.

They will also play normal DVD's and make them look better.

Upscaling the original resolution of a dvd if your telly is HD. Quite a few (most?) normal DVD players have this function too now.

Or was that a trick question? wink I am by no means any kind of A/V expert!
