Review: I have owned a Toshiba 6109 for about 1 year and I am very happy with the unit. The dvd player is excellent. 50 watts per channel is sufficient with the efficient speakers I have attached to the dvd/amplifier.

Review: I'm the first to admit I'm not the most "techno-savvy" person in the world. The thought of connecting a bunch of home-theater components gives me nightmares. I do software, not hardware! So it was with some trepidation that I ordered this unit. I purposely bought the combination DVD player/receiver so I'd have fewer components to worry about.

I needn't have worried at all: Toshiba has put together a fabulous package -- operation is very straightforward; set-up is a breeze; and connecting it to my "new-ish" stereo TV, satellite system, and "old-ish" (but still wonderful) AR2ax speakers took less than 10 minutes.

I tested the system with my favorite "crank up the volume" disks (the movie "Twister" and the Robert Shaw audio recording of William Walton's "Belshazzar's Feast"). In both cases, the sound was brilliant, with more than enough power to rattle the windows. At the lowest volumes, the sound was still full and rich. The picture quality was excellent as well -- typical for DVD, to be sure.

While I don't have a surround-sound system (yet) for this unit, it does a fine job of simulating surround sound with its "Spatializer 3-D" stereo technology. I have it in a room about 18' by 20', with the aforementioned AR2ax speakers, and it delivers amazing results. The system I have in my family room cost several times more than this unit, includes a complete surround sound system, and to be perfectly honest, the sound there isn't really that much better than my new Toshiba combo.

I've found only a couple of "negatives" with the unit: 1) you have to first program the presets via the buttons on the front of the unit before you can use the remote to tune the AM/FM. I would have prefered the ability to tune directly via the remote. It's a small thing, one that I can overlook in favor of the overall quality of the package. 2) as others have mentioned, the remote can be a little confusing as the buttons are small, most of them are the same size, and there's no backlighting. However, once you get used to it, it's not difficult to use it without looking.

All in all, I consider this an excellent investment. I'm even looking forward to connecting my turntable to it (it has additional audio inputs for this), so I can hear once again some of my prized vinyl albums.

Summary: Nice package
Review: I've had mine for almost a year now and love it. If you don't have a DVD or 5.1 receiver yet this is a great way to get both for a reasonable price and reduce the wiring clutter of separate units. Only gripes I have are that I could have used one more audio input for the CD changer, and the remote is one big checkerboard of small buttons. You can also find more features on newer DVD player components. But all in all, this is a great deal for keeping the budget down and having one less component to fit in the entertainment unit.

Go for this and Bose Acoustimass 6 speakers and you've got fantastic theater sound for a pretty reasonable investment.

Summary: had it for 3 years--love it
Review: It has far exceeded my expectations. Sounds great on DVD or Audio CDs. The 'party' decode is unusual, allowing stereo CDs to sound 5.1-ish.

I did spend good money on speakers, especially a quality sub.

As another reviewer wrote here, this is my favorite toy.

Summary: My Favorite Toy!
Review: This unit is incredible. Every feature one could want in a DVDplayer and/or Digital Receiver. I love it! Easy hook-up, simple tooperate, and loaded with features. The picture is sharp and the sound is impressive (be sure to select a set of good quality speakers). This is literally an all-in-one home theater, just plug in the speakers, hook it to your TV, and you are ready for a real pleasant home viewing experience. My only complaint would be the remote control. Its fully functional, but all the buttons are the same size, it's sometimes hard to distinquish which button does what. Overall, a great electronics item and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an entry-level player/receiver.

Summary: Great features at a great price!
Review: We searched a long time for the perfect DVD player for our first unit. After many weeks of research we came across this unit. To sum it up in a few words, great deal, great quality! Enough power to crank out all the volume we will ever need and tons of features to boot! You can't go wrong with this purchase, we love ours!
