Denon 1910 vs. 1920 DVD players?

[volfandan]

Are the only significant differences in the Denon 1910 and 1920 DVI vs HDMI and the 1920 having the ability to play SACD's?

If your using the player mostly for movies, may I suggest the Toshiba A1 HD-DVD. Once you've seen HiDef DVD's you not want too go back. :T

It's my understanding that DVD's in HD are in two formats, HD-dvd and Blu-ray. There is no way that I'm going to invest big $$ into a high-def player that only plays half of the formats out there. For this reason, I am opting for paying 1/4 th of the price and getting a progressive upconverting player with HDMI or DVI outputs.

The 1920 retails for $349, the Toshiba A1 for $499. The difference in PQ/SQ is worth the extra $150. Before I got the Toshiba A1 unit I had a Denon 3910. Trust me when I say, the Denon can not compete with the A1 in PQ and SQ for movies. On top off that the upconvertion of standard DVD's is top notch.
