Review of Automobile DVD players.

Automobile DVD players. They are the latest craze. What better way to keep the kids occupied on a long road trip. You could also consider it a safety device, avoiding the distractions drivers may face with excited children who are bouncing around the car, or screaming at the top of their lungs.

Although not necessarily a part of home theater systems I received a request to review automobile DVD players and thought I would give it a shot. There is no challenge I will refuse!

If you would like to review the multiple automobile players that are available, the features and options, and their pricing, click to see all Automobile DVD players.

Another option is to do some research on portable DVD players here at the site. Although not ideal for multiple kids or viewers in one vehicle, they are much more practical and can substitute for a home theater system DVD player at home as well. Also, they do not require the installation in your vehicle that true automobile DVD players require.

What I have done is pick and recommend one dedicated automobile model from all of those available.

On second thought, no, I will not. Why have a player that must stay in the vehicle when you can have one that can travel with you wherever you may go? For your car I recommend the Audiovox VBP4000 Portable DVD player. It's a portable DVD player unit built in to a travel case. It's loaded with features, it's durable, and is a good value for the price.
