Product Description

Product Description
The Sony DVP-NS305 is Sony’s new entry level DVD player in its 2002 range. The NS305 sets new standards in operational reliability, video/audio playback quality and ease of use. One striking feature is a new slimline profile, which at a height of just 62 mm saves mounting space and makes the players easy to combine with other home entertainment products. This stylish silver design harmonises with other Sony components, which together can combine to create the most sophisticated and versatile home entertainment systems available.

The DVP-NS305 includes advanced technical features, providing the utmost in high picture quality, such as Sony’s Precision Drive2 System. The system includes a new High Speed Stepping motor and a Dynamic Tilt Compensation mechanism which provides faster and more accurate tracking of playback of DVDs as well as Twin Laser Pick Up which enhances playback of CD-R/RW. Compatible with various kinds of DVD-Video discs, Precision Drive2 compensates for disc warp and other disc imperfections and thus ensures reliable disc playback. It also features impressive multi-format playback capabilities, including DVD+RW, DVD-R/RW (Video Mode), DVD-Video, CD, CD-R/RW, Video CD and data CD with MP3.

To further provide reliable and impressive picture quality, the NS305 integrates Block Noise Reduction technology, a new circuit that filters the borders of the component blocks, significantly reducing on-screen block noise artefacts. A new feature is Picture Mode, which allows the user to select one of five picture modes (including standard, 2x dynamic and 2x cinema) to suit their taste. With respect to exciting sound quality, a new 192 kHz 24-bit Digital Audio Converter (DAC) provides outstanding audio to match the player’s leading image reproduction capabilities. TV Virtual Surround Sound--digital sound created from discrete multi-channel source--optimises the surround sound quality of your TV set’s existing speakers to provide an enhanced surround sound effect without multi-channel speakers. Dynamic, Wide, Night and Standard sound settings are available.

An extensive range of features have been included, which are designed to simplify operation including an intuitive Playback Dial, Control Bar and Child Lock. Other user oriented features include a Quick Set Up procedure, guided on screen and Instant Replay, which allows the user to see the last 10 seconds again by pushing one button.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb value for money !, 31 Jul 2002
Not having owned a DVD before I can't objectively compare this model others, but I can say that I was more than impressed with what I got for my hard earned ££££'s.
Installation was beyond simple. Connect the scart lead from the back of the player to the TV, (not supplied, but I bought gold coated one for £15.00 from a high street store) plug it into the mains, then turn the telly on to AV channel.
Job Done! I was playing DVD's in under 5 mins.

The picture quality is fabulous, really crisp, sumptuous, saturated colours, and deep rich blacks. You can also alter the contrast/definition ratio to suit the movie you are watching.
Audio (including music Cd's) sounds fantastic, even just through my basic Nicam TV speakers, without the real deal surround sound set up.

Doubtless there are more sophisticated models "bells & whistles" models out there if you want to spend a bit more, but I can't imagine getting any more quality performance than this for [the price]. Am much chuffed with my purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Product!!, 30 Dec 2002
Having bought a £300+ DVD player 2 1/2 yrs ago I was slightly sceptical about what this one would deliver in terms of quality.
I primarily bought this DVD because I required a newer drive to play CDRs etc.
It does more than a good job! The compressed MP3 playback is top notch and the VCD quality is awesome, this player is ideal for someone who is not looking to put hundreds of surround speakers in their front room and just watch films, the sound through normal speakers is good enough and with 5 picture settings there is plenty of choice. I challenge anybody to find a better DVD player at this price, which I may add is the cheapest I have found anywhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the rest, 14 Jun 2002
This is now my second dvd player after the Sony 315 which I loved. But boy oh boy, what a difference!!!
The picture quality is superb - even with the most darkest of pictures there's no faulting this player. There are a number of included picture modes on the player that makes a difference to what you're watching. There's also the BNR function but it makes little difference I've found to the overall picture quality.
The sound from this player is also superb - from stereo soundtracks to Dolby Digital to DTS, again the quality is superior to other players of this range. Sounds that were previously soft or unheard suddenly break through.
Setting the player up takes a matter of minutes and the onscreen display is simple and informative. It plays CDR so my home made discs play without a problem and it also benefits from the ability to play MP3 files (previously neglected by Sony)
CD-Text and DVD-Text are also avaliable (will display the name of an audio album in the display if cd-text is recorded)
And this player is so super slim!!!
I cannot praise it enough and I hope that my views will persuade others to try this excellent Sony player
