Denon DVD-1940CI
Written By
John, Fairbanks, AK on Wednesday, August 05, 2009
I have had this DVD player for about a month and I think it is great. I mostly use it as a CD player, but movies have been great too. It is simple to use and uncluttered. I can also control it from the front of the player (without the remote). The remote control is pretty big (long).

Mixed feelings
Written By
Benjamin, Houston, TX on Wednesday, May 27, 2009
I bought this Denon DVD player to replace an Onkyo that was no longer loading and unloading disks properly. I'm using it on a 720p LG 46" DLP TV. I originally had it hooked up via the component video outputs like I had with the Onkyo. The picture was clear, but all the colors where very faded and muted looking. It looked "washed out" or "grayed out." I then hooked it up using the HDMI output to the DVI input on the LG (no HDMI input on the LG). I fidgeted with several settings and finally got the picture to my liking using the HDMI "Enhanced" setting, which was not the default. So it looks good now, but it took me a long time to get to it, and I had to buy an HDMI to DVI cable. I'm not sure what the deal is with the component video outputs, but if you plan to hook it up with the component video outputs, I don't recommend this unit.

This just might make me an Audiophile again...

Having given up on any chance of Audiophile quality from CDs long ago, I've succumbed to the connivence of listening to MP-3's exclusively - iPods everywhere! I never sat down and listened to music anymore, it felt like a forgotten passion - not just by me, but by everyone I knew. That was until I did a renovation job on my Maui house and upgraded the Home Theatre system in the process, which is now the high end of the low end stuff on the Audio side of things. Got a couple floor- standing speakers for old times sake and they blew me away running off my Harmon Kardon receiver (clean power). So, I broke out my CD collection again - yup, still sounds like crap alright.
Then I thought... wait a second, what about DVD-Audio and SACD?! - I never checked that out... So, I got this player and have been buying up all the discs I can get my hands on and I've had nightly listening sessions ever since! Eric Clapton Slowhad on SACD just came in yesterday - what a treat it was to listen to that again on something other than a CD!!! And, I'm really digging some of the 5.1 surround mixes.
So, now I gotta know... How does it stack up against vinyl? If it stacks up favorably on an Audiophile system. Well, I guess I'm officially an Audiophile again.
In the interim, I'm buying another one of these players for my place in Canada cause one thing is for certain regardless, they are light years better than ordinary CDs!!!

Terrific Value & Great Performance
Written By

If you are not interested in Blu-Ray, this unit is a great performer, and the current pricing makes it particularly attractive. I bought a couple of Denons to replace my old units because they were failing every 9-12 months. In addition, my A/V systems are controlled by Universal Remote's RF control units and they had erratic control issues. I hoped the Denons would solve remote control issue. Happily, they worked flawlessly upon installation. Now I'm hoping they also last longer than the old units.
