I have the HD-A760GX which is the 250GB version. For it’s price its hard to find a better player but you’ll have to live with some of it’s limitations. Go to www.newegg.com and search for the HD-A760GX for a couple of reviews.

this machine in this thread? :bigsmile:

Get a DVD burner for your computer, then go to
the Slysoft website and get AnyDVD and CloneDVD
because they will do what you want, but the
Lite-On A740GX will not.

I bought the A760GX with the 250GB HD for £260 (AJ Electronics Edgware road London they have a web site cant remember it though) you can get the A740GX from scan.co.uk for £200

Would you believe, the US version ships
with a mono tuner?
Other than that, I really like mine. :bigsmile:

Hi, anyone know how to make the HD-A740 Region Free please? I have just purchased one of these and so far am very pleased with it. I’m in the UK and over here it comes with a Nicam Stereo Tuner! Many thanks.
