Here's a review of JVC's DVD player.....very good for the price. Maybe THIS one is CUBE?

e-town.com

Look & feel: Most sub-$500 DVD players feel flimsy and
lightweight. No so this JVC. The unit weighs in at 10 lbs. (the
more typical Pioneer DV-414 weighs just 6 lbs., 3 oz.) and feels
reassuringly solid. Inside, the chassis features compartmentalized
construction, with a physically separated power supply, and
separate circuit boards for digital video, analog video and analog
audio.

The blue fluorescent front-panel display is excellent, conveying
much more useful information than most other units. My favorite
feature is the graphic speaker display that lights during playback to
indicate whether you are hearing a two-channel or 5.1-channel
soundtrack. Given DVD's many possible audio permutations, any
visual feedback is extremely helpful.

Great audio.....

While most DVD players offer similar video performance, audio
performance can vary significantly, especially when using the unit
as a CD player (i.e., when using the player's internal
digital-to-analog converter and analog audio outputs). Simply put,
the JVC delivers the best, most musical stereo CD sound I've
heard from a DVD player.

How's the picture you ask.....

Unless you've got a perfectly set-up megabucks front-projection
display, you're just not going to see any significant differences
among players at this price point.

Lots more details.....
