welcome

The DVD32FLR is a high performance video source that supports a wide range of video

outputs, making it the perfect choice for home cinema installations. It is particularly well
suited to situations which cannot accommodate our top-loading DVD32R.  The DVD32FLR is
an ideal complement to the TAG McLaren Audio theatre AV32R but also complements many
other high-performance audio-visual processors.

Thank you for purchasing the TAG McLaren 

dvd transport DVD32FLR
