... any electrical product. At under £70 this is very much at the lower end of the DVD player scale and can be purchased from most electrical retailers, including Argos. The player was very easy to set up although I warn you that you will need another scart lead to connect it to the TV. The diagram in the handbook is easy to follow and each socket is clearly marked. Using the player couldn?t be simpler and although the handbook is easy to use you probably won?t need it. Simply by opening the front draw, placing the ...more

As I?m sure many of you now know, I bought my first house almost two years ago and whilst we slowly went about decorating each room, money was tight. Having bought a new 29inch wide-screen TV I was hoping I?d get a bit of money for my Birthday in November to put aside for a DVD player in the January sales. As it turned out I got even luckier and my Brother bought me one as a joint Birthday and Christmas present ? result or what!? Personally I wanted one as I knew that it was the way forward and I was missing out on all the DVD extras that didn?t appear on video. The one that he bought me was the Alba DVD 108 player, which on first impressions looked stylish in ... Read the complete review

I've never been one to hire videotapes. Perhaps it's my Scotch ancestry, but I always figured that films would come round on TV before long and could then be taped, the practical upshot of which is that my VCR watched more TV than I did, and I have a backlog of stuff that may get watched someday. Or perhaps not, now that we have a DVD player and can properly appreciate the difference in picture quality. I'll still use the VCR for time-shifting and compiling Futurama tapes, but for films, I'm now quite happy to pay the hire charge and enjoy the wonderful picture and sound quality. I might even buy the odd DVD, although there aren't that many films that ... Read the complete review

Having travelled along to Argos with my reservation number for the Alba DVD 108, I was told at the till that this dvd player would not play VCD's and that I may recieve a different model to the one shown in the catalogue. Thinking that this rarely happens I promptly paid for it and picked it up. The actual model I was given was the slightly larger but nicer looking Alba DVD 109. I got it home, connected it to the tv by scart and hi-fi by phono and started to play. It's a very simple machine to operate with a short booklet of instructions that would only take the slowest of readers 5 minutes to get through. The picture quality was great and ...
