I bought this portable DVD player for the primary purpose of watching DVD movies on the plane when I travel. I tried the player at home alone and everything seemed great. When I recently used the player on a plane however I was very disappointed that the sound wouldn't go any louder. The background noise of being on a plane washed out the dialogue. I could hear the sound effects but had to keep pressing the headphones into my ears to hear the dialogue. Very, annoying and sometimes painful.I did find a solution to this problem however. You can buy a headphone amplifier. It is a small device that... plugs into the headphone jack on the side of the DVD player and amplifies the sound as far as you need it to go. Another great thing is that this device also splits the amplified signal to 3 separate headphone jacks so others can listen. I came across this amplifier and bought it right away. The device is called a Boostaroo. You can find it on Boostaroo.comOther than the sound being too low the player was great. The picture was fantastic and I've really been waiting for a portable DVD player with component output. And, you can view the screen from virtually any angle.It would have gotten five stars if it wasn't for the sound. Even though I was able to remedy the problem, I... expected more...
