I bought this to replace a N590 bdv bdv E380 that I have unfortunately blown ... It's N590 offers a truly correct, but how noisy fan, I cut the grid and installed a silent fan connected to small transformer 5v. Brief the dismantling, I quickly realized the fragility of the "machine" in January ... I offer to the family and I opt for a Panasonic sc btt590, much more robust and very quiet .. . Shame on Sony for its low-end components !!!
