Geoff,
Video-wise, even without seeing the 2910, I know I can live with either player.
Audio-wise, before I even decide to A/B the 2910-DAC1 and 3910-DAC1 combinations, I would like to hear views on a 3910 vs DAC1 comparison first. If there is not a big audio difference, I might just buy the 3910 alone (and mebbe get the DAC1 later when the upgrade bug bites again ).
Because I can't get the DAC1 in my country, if I buy it direct from Benchmark and then decide to return it, the intl shipping cost is tidy sum. So I'm hoping to hear from those who have heard both the 3910 and DAC1 first before I decide to put down my money for the DAC1.
BTW, the 2 DVDPs use different audio DACs. The 2910 uses the DACs from the 2200. Speculation is that the 2910 will have PQ close to the 3910 but it's AQ will be lower (2200?).
