Which DVD recorder to buy?

Have a SonyDAVFR10W home theater system that has a stuck DVD. I want to buy a dvd recorder/player-Will itWork

• I bought this on ebay 6 months ago for $ 600 It is Sony DAV-FR10W, with DVD player (no recorder) and 5 surround sound speakers. The sound of this is AWESOME. This unit sells new for $ 800 - $1,000. A dvd is stuck...local shop wants $80 to remove the stuck dvd. I really want to go out and buy a Sony DVD Recorder and Player for between $ 140 - $ 190 or so. Question: Will ANY Sony dvd recorder/player that I buy work ok ...putting out the same AWESOME sound that this one has given ??? Or will it refuse to work well ? The back of my existing dvd player is Model # HCD-FR10W It has a 5 disc cd changer.

• Answer:

  Any dvd player should work. You would need to connect the new player into the toshlink fiber optic connection that is labeled "SAT" digital optical in. Your operation of this would then need to be in "Sat" to hear it. Likewise you would then need to connect the new dvd directly to the tv. As a side note, you may be able to open the unit up yourself and get the disc out. If you don't feel comfortable, I would bet you have a computer geek friend that you feel just fine opening it up.
