Thanks.

I am in PAL region. I just can't decide what model of player should I get to get best picture like ES10/15 had with passtrough, because ES10 and ES15 are nowhere to be found.

Found ES10 here locally in my coutry for cheap, and bought it. Can't wait to test it. But without remote unfortunately.

Remote is required to access menus, and you must alter settings from default.

Get a unit with battery cover, images showing it to be clean, no leaked battery acid. eBay is a terrible place for most gear, but the remotes can be fine.

I know, thanks for warning.

His original remote is EUR7720KM0, right ?
