Simply calling the DVD557 a DVD player may be an injustice. That's because it does so much more. It also plays CDs and decodes several digital audio formats. With the spread of DVD recorders, consumers are increasingly recording TV programs onto DVD discs. So it's a good thing DVD-R/RW discs can be played back on the DVD557. It also plays MP3 files recorded on CD-R and CD-RW disc. The navigation system shows you artist names and track name, and lets you easily find favorite tracks. The DVD557 also supports WMA (Windows Media Audio) version 9 files. WMA is an audio compression format developed with Microsoft technology. It claims to offer the highest quality sound available in the industry. Also, with its handy JPEG slide show features, the DVD557 can be used to play your Kodak picture CDs and other JPEG image discs. Imagine watching your vacation slide show on your big screen TV! So, as you can see, the DVD557 gives you quite a bit more than just high quality DVD movie playback. Less

So disappointing

7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Impressive brand name
Cons These units are total lemons.
Recommended it? No

We purchased this product as part of a high end home theatre system designed for our new home. The first unit was installed in Aug 2004. We experienced problems with the discs loading and playing just after the warranty expired. Denon was actually nice about it and when I went to get service, the... Read full review »

Piece-O-Junk

Pros Matched my Denon receiver.
Cons It takes too many stamps to mail it back to the manufacturer every six months.
Recommended it? No

Well I am reluctant to say that I too have had nothing but trouble with this darn thing. I originally purchased it in October of '03 and as those above, began getting error messages ("disc error" or something to that effect) within 5 or 6 months. I took it back to the store where I bought it and... Read full review »

7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Cool looking
Cons No headphone jack, large footprint, large remote, no volume control
Recommended it? Yes

I'd purchased a 22" HDTV monitor nearly a year ago to replace a seven year old 15" CRT monitor. So, since I don't watch TV programs, I decided to get a second DVD player to watch my growing collection of classic movies. I did a bit of reseach, and decided on the Denon brand since I'd read so many... Read full review »

Pros Well made, advanced circuitry, very good performance, user friendly, easy to install
Cons No volume control
Recommended it? Yes

In the audio world that I recall from days gone by, the Denon name always stood for higher quality than most "mid-fi" level components. Even though I've been removed from audio scene for the last several years, the Denon name caught my eye when we started our search for a replacement DVD player... Read full review »
