Egreat EG-M34A
Another Sigma 8635 (Popcorn Hour A-110 alike) player. The EG-M34A is well regarded for it's wide format support and committed online technical support. Is an NMT so benefits from Syabas software. Suffers from a slow user interface as with all the 8635 machines.

The EG-M34A is a mature, capable product that is now looking dated.

There are 5 comments hellokitty – USA January 04, 2011 - 01:57 I love Egreat so much and I think it is the no. 1 over all the media player brands. chirag February 09, 2010 - 14:09 apart from sigma 8635 chipset there is nothing bad in this. why it is rated at 2? I don't see much or equal capable player than this at this price point. DTS-HD MA pass through itself should get full rating!! what do you say iboum? Reply to chirag iboum February 09, 2010 - 14:21 I say that you may have a point. Recently whilst we've been sorting out HD-Audio and improving the ranking system it has become apparent that this player is good value at it's price. We've always been very reluctant to recommend the Sigma 8635 players but for HD-Audio there is still nothing to compete. The rating will be shifted up to 3*, at least until the newer players sort themselves out..
