Do any manufacturers make a quality DVD player that is able to play both PAL and NTSC disks? I hope to be able to play disks that come from PAL sources as well as those from here in the states. Do any also play other formats such as DVD-audio and/or SACD's? Any help is appreciated.

The Oppo DV-981HD (http://www.oppodigital.com/dv981hd/dv981hd_index.html) will do all of that. It has a service menu where you can change it to all region.

Thanks

I didn't know much about OPPO's but just ordered their best. I hope that it does all it claims.

There are easy hacks available (involving only the input of the sequence of appropriate buttons on the remote)to make them region-free. :)

Do you know if there are any hacks for a Marantx player that I have at the present time? Where do I find out?

So where can these hacks be found? I have a 2930CI that I would love to make region-free.
