Product Description

Studio quality sound and images, plus a wealth of extra 'information' on a CD-sized disc, DVD will revolutionize your TV viewing. Toshiba's range has something for everyone, from the experienced home cinema audiophile to the surround sound novice. The SD-2900 features a new slim cosmetic design and comes equipped with component video outputs compatible with Toshiba's finest televisions. This model offers WMA/MP3 compatibility, Digital Photo Viewer and Digital Picture Zoom. ColorStream Component Video Outputs are compatible with today's finest televisions for delivery of stunningly colorful images. 10-Bit/27mHz video digital-to-analog conversion provides maximum color purity, detail, and resolution. 24-Bit/192kHz PCM audio compatibility delivers warmer, more natural-sounding audio from many types of discs. DVD-R/CD-R/CD-RW compatible playback ensures discs made with personal recording devices can be played back in the home theater system, too. Digital Photo Viewer enables a user to display digital photographs on a television set in a variety of popular digital formats.

Amazon.com Product Description

Enjoy movies and music to the max with Toshiba's SD-2900 single-disc DVD player. ColorStream component-video outputs (for use with compatible TVs) virtually eliminate NTSC artifacts like video noise and dot crawl, while built-in MP3 and WMA (Windows Media Audio) decoding give the freedom to compile music on a PC and listen to it on a stereo or TV. You can even watch customized digital-picture slideshows on a TV using recordable CDs filled with Konica, Fuji Photo, Kodak Picture CD, and standard JPEG image files.

Component-video splits the video signal into three separate components, which reduces the amount of signal processing required of your television. Conventional composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television. The "expanded" mode in the player's black-level setting produces richer, deeper black tones in every image.

In the audio realm, a set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's coaxial digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. The player's internal digital-to-analog converters work at 24-bit, 192 kHz resolution to ensure optimum sonic quality from a range of digital program material. Playback options include picture zoom, dialogue enhancement, QSound 3D Surround Sound (simulated surround for two-channel listening), parental lock, and compatibility with DVD and CD Text features (on encoded discs). The player comes with a full-function remote control.

1 out of 5 stars How does a unit get to be sold, if it doesn't work?.......2004-01-06

Not knowing anything about DVD, I trusted Toshiba, cause they do have a pretty good reputation on electronic units. If I would have known a little about DVD, I would have ran,not walked, back to Best Buy and returned this. DVD's are not supposed to lose audio after you go out of pause. DVD's are supposed to read all region 1 DVDs. Simple. No ifs or maybes about it. This unit failed to read a brand new DVD. All I get is ?????|?? Write_Run_Start on the screen. and if I remove the Disk, it stays on the screen. This sounds like a bad eprom. But we will never know, cause customer service,except for Best Buy, didn't exist. 90 day warrenty. I think that said it all.
Very, very disapointing. oh, I tried the DVD on my ... computer DVD drive, it works great!

3 out of 5 stars Audio failed.......2003-09-28

After 18 months the audio just stopped working due to an internal failure that was not repairable - warranty is only 1 year.

3 out of 5 stars It Works, But Only A Cryptologist Would Enjoy the Menu.......2003-09-15

I got this DVD player after I tried a Samsung which choked on discs and had other problems. This Toshiba DVD player really works, delivering a crystal-clear picture and audio, is easy to set up, and plays DVDs without fuss or problem, but the interface is unnecessarily difficult to use. Press "MENU" and a bunch of tiny symbols come up which you have to laboriously arrow and toggle through using the tiny buttons on the remote control. I recommend the Toshiba 3900 DVD player instead.

5 out of 5 stars Very nice picture, great player.......2003-08-25

After two years of using an Apex DVD, watching a movie on this baby is great. The picture is 10 times better, and the audio is sweet.
Another big plus (for me) is that it is very thin and doesn't take up too much space.

        4 out of 5 stars Home Theatre speakers...........2006-08-13

        Good quality for a bedroom.....convenient and doesn't take much space. Sound is very good.

        3 out of 5 stars Pretty good for a cheap upgrade for built in TV speakers.......2006-08-08

        Cons: Weak subwoofer, very light & flimsy speakers
        Pros: At about $10/speaker, an inexpensive way to go from very poor TV speakers to moderate speakers

        The speakers provide better sound quality than the ones in my old TV, and it was fun to have a cheap surround sound experience. But, you definitely get what you pay for - don't expect a tremendous performance from these cheapies, but they are definitely adequate for moderate entertainment.

        1 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for.......2006-07-30

        I ordered this system because I wanted to put new speakers on my existing surround sound system. Reading the reviews on Amazon, I expected the subwoofer to be weak (it is), but I expected the speakers to be good to excellent. They are fair. This is actually the first item in my multi-year history as an Amazon shopper that I am going to the trouble to return. The speaker system I ordered for my computer sounds better. If you just need a cheap system that's better than the speakers on your TV, this might be good for you. Otherwise, shop around and maybe spend just a little more.

        4 out of 5 stars KLH= good stuff cheap........2004-02-06

        I Just got this system a month or two ago, and I'm happy with it. The speakers are quite outstanding actually. I have everything run through a Sony Receiver (the one that I've already reviewed) along with some vintage Yamaha center speakers, and the setup sounds quite nice so far. As everyone has already mentioned regarding KLH sound systems, the speakers are amazing, and the subwoofers lack bass. Then again, you do save a great deal of money on the sattellite system, so throw it towards a decent sub. The speakers come with everything required for mounting, except decent wall screws. Also, the included speaker wire is absolutely dreadful, I'd recommend getting your own separately.

        This system is perfect for an apartment where you have to worry about neighbors above and below complaining about constant wall thumping. I've had no complaints thus far. I don't mean to sell the sub short, it is nice for the price, and doesn't seem like its going to blowout any time soon. Again, if you want to shake the paintings off your neighbors walls, you might want to try something else.

        I purchased the the Cool & Clean from J&R,It works awesome,you hold your hand close you can feel it pulling air.I suggest befor installing the fan to remove the top off of your ps2,if its out of warranty,you can use any household vacum to clean the dust out of the ps2,also use vacum on the front cooling vents,which are the first to collect dust,then clean the ps2 cooling fan on the rear of the ps2,use window cleaner,sprayed lightly on a paper to clean the area where the Gemini will go.When you turn your ps2 on you will hear the fan working,but its not to loud,once your game starts you dont notice it.Try it if your ps2 freezes during game play or during saves.It works.

                Designed for computer users who need the portability and convenience of a standalone CD recorder and player, the Iomega external 16x10x40 USB 2.0 CD-RW drive offers satisfactory performance, rugged styling, and colorful good looks. It isn't quite as fast as an equivalently rated internal CD-RW drive, nor is it completely free of the teething pains surrounding the new USB 2.0 technology. But for situations where a built-in CD-RW is either impractical or impossible--notebook computers are a prime example--the Iomega external 16x10x40 is a versatile and cost-effective solution.

                Sporting a unique dark purple color scheme and a large and curvy 10-by-7-by-2-inch profile, the unit makes a dramatic visual impression. But more importantly, it easily adapts to almost any computing environment. To connect it to your PC, Mac, or notebook, you merely install its software driver, run its three-foot data cable into any available USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 port, and plug its power cord into an AC outlet. The computer will recognize it as a standard drive and assign it the next available letter in your drive chain. Alternately, you may use the device strictly for audio CD playback by forgoing the USB cable and connecting the included audio cables directly to your sound card's inputs.

                To burn data or audio discs, we utilized the included version of Iomega's HotBurn, a basic CD-writing utility designed to appeal to those who value ease-of-use over advanced operations. Although HotBurn offers a rookie-friendly interface, convenient drag-and-drop file transfers, and basic functions such as audio/data burning and CD-label creation, we couldn't perform complex procedures such as WAV file editing or volume normalization.

                In action, the Iomega external 16x10x40 runs as quietly as most internal drives and continues to record and play smoothly even when being severely bounced about. It is important to remember, however, that the unit operates only as fast as your computer setup will allow. When connected via a traditional USB 1.1 port, it functions at a relatively sluggish 4x write speed, 4x rewrite speed, and 6x read speed. But when connected to a USB 2.0-capable system, those figures jump dramatically. Although our tests indicated that Iomega's claim of 16x write, 10x rewrite, and 40x read USB 2.0 performance seemed somewhat exaggerated in real-world scenarios, the unit generally performed at double to triple its USB 1.1 speed when linked to a USB 2.0 port. Not quite what we had hoped for, but impressive speeds for an external CD burner nevertheless.

                What if your system doesn't support USB 2.0? You have a few options, including utilizing your slower USB 1.1 ports, swapping your motherboard for one with integrated USB 2.0 capability, or purchasing a separate USB 2.0 adapter card. The latter may make the most financial sense for many users, as multiport USB 2.0 adapter cards are readily available for a fraction of the cost of a state-of-the-art USB 2.0 motherboard.

                Yet no matter which connection you choose, this and all USB 2.0 devices are susceptible to the quirks of the new technology. Microsoft, for example, opted to exclude USB 2.0 support from its original boxed copies of Windows XP, and therefore forces users to search its site for newly developed software drivers. Similarly, as we discovered during testing, some motherboard chipsets aren't particularly friendly to multiple USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices. Fortunately, Iomega's toll-free support line offers plenty of helpful one-on-one advice.

                Though it seems slightly slower and a bit more prone to connectivity quirks than an equivalently rated internal CD-RW device, the Iomega external 16x10x40 USB 2.0 CD-RW drive is nevertheless a strong option for environments that require a standalone CD burner/player. --Gordon Goble

                1 out of 5 stars bad piece of hardware.......2002-12-03

                I thought this was going to be a good product but it does nothing but eat cds and spit them out. I had the product for a year and only made 1 cd of proably about 25 before I gave up. It would never work with my new thinkpad and xp and technical support was horrible. Tech support kept telling me to turn off things in the background that typically are running in any windows operating system etc. I got an old fart who kept explaining to me that he had been ding this for 30 years instead of getting the product to work. I sent product back and got rembursed. I won't buy any of this company's products again because this was such a headache.

                5 out of 5 stars outstanding product for Macs.......2002-12-03

                i have 2 Imacs and 1 iBook. all operating systems are
                9.0 to 9.1. All are usb 1.1. It took about 5 minutes to load the software and i was doing back-ups in 6 minutes. tremendously easy to use. as reviewed elsewhere, it's true that on the mac it doesn't do RW and it only tells you this in the install manual but at the price of CDs, I soon realized that i didn't care. after reading all of the negative reviews of iomega products, i can only think that those users are mired in the mess of PC world and are blaming the iomega for the [things] that microsoft has foisted on them. great product!!!

                1 out of 5 stars Iomega just don't get it........2002-12-03

                I had Iomega zip drives and Jaz drives before and never really liked them, but I needed a good priced CD burner and this was available. I bought a bundle of blank CD-R's when I bought the unit and then found that there was a list of compatible CD-R's and this Iomega unit wouldn't write to the ones I bought. I have used many CD burners and never discovered this before. 2 days after I got it home the little door fell off and I had to take it back to get it replaced. The Iomega software that is bundled with it is the worst piece of software I, as a programmer, have ever come across. Overall I just don't understand why Iomega don't just sell up and quit making low quality products with hard to use, non-intuitive software. I eventually took this unit back for a refund and bought one from Dell. It was more expensive but I can burn to whatever brand of CD-R I like and the software is user-friendly.

                2 out of 5 stars Warning stay away!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2002-12-01

                I hooked up the drive to my lap top and it installed but my usb controller would not read it. I tried every single thing I even tried hooking it up to my freinds computer and the same thing occured I contacted iomega support and their information that they told me did not work. I thought this drive was plug and play but in fact its plug and struggle. I gave it 2 stars because it looks nice.

                5 out of 5 stars Just right.......2002-11-15

                Everything was fine for me with this device. I followed the instructions and got first CD burned in 20 minutes after unpacking! Then I installed Nero and burned some music, VCD and SVCD, no problems were found so far. I like this portable device which I can bring to friends and get some huge video files from them.

                  Product Description

                  Two standout features characterize Iomega's new 16X/10X/40X internal drive. The first is a true 16X write speed across the entire disk, allowing users to burn a 60-minute audio CD in less than five minutes. By comparison, some other CD-RW drives achieve their rated write speed only at the outer portion of the disk, resulting in slower burns. The second is the drive's high-performance 32X DAE (Digital Audio Extraction) speed, the rate at which a drive can rip an audio recording from a CD. With this drive users can rip a three-minute song from a CD in as little as six seconds.
