plus punke are the screensaver and crisp image of DVD. wanted to replace my Sony S4200 because it has a picture only moderate dvd, but loving also is nice and quiet. Now the S1500, the first 2-3 hours it was quiet. but then in a break gave the drive a ratterton of the was really unbearable. very reminiscent of a starting jumbo. I actually thought the improved Sony points with the new series in all, unlike the precursors. but I was wrong. but vieleich they have simply the encapsulated drive the wegrationiert predecessor what a point was for me to buy them. had it accepted the moderate dvd scaling up. the much better with the LG makes image and also with the volume that is on a quiet nivau at 640. Conclusion: No buy recommendation for the device. Those who want a quiet player is better off with the Sony predecessors or buys at competitors like the LG 640 or 420 I've also tried.
