Alistar J Baxter, Unregistered user Wednesday 01st of July 2009 01:36:06 PM: Great value blue ray player, looks great, very easy to set up, picture quality is superb, upscaling seems to produce good results with some animated films looking as good as HD, I don\'t have a full HD telivision, just 1080i so results would probably be even better on a 1080p. Bought it to replace an aging hitachi normal dvd player so all round very pleased.
PJ Rankin, Unregistered user Friday 13th of March 2009 01:38:36 PM: It\'s much smaller than its predecessor which isn\'t entirely a good thing if you stack your components as my Sky box hangs over the back by a few inches but the player is wider than it so it would look daft on top. Connections are all well labelled and simple although the ac socket is a little loose. Remote is a little garish compared to the BDP-S300. It definitely starts up faster than before though still not as fast as a DVD player and the drawer doesn\'t seem as well damped as the S300. Internet connection was automatic and a swift check for updates revealed it was current. I tested it with my one and only 7.1 disc and the sound was superb, can\'t say that I noticed the extra speakers but the receiver says they were working so who am I to argue. Also tested it with \'Cars\' which has a notoriously long start up and that was a great improvement, no more looking at blank screens and blue loading bars. The Dolby True HD soundtrack is fantastic, the cars really sound like they are racing round the room. Haven\'t tested the blu ray live yet and may never do so as I\'m not a big fan of extras so overall Sony, good job.
Coastal J, Unregistered user Friday 05th of December 2008 07:01:40 PM: Sony has lagged a bit behind the other stand-alone blu-ray player manufacturers to date, which is odd considering their stake in the format. But now, with the HD war over and the release of this `budget\' player, there has never been a better time to make the change from DVD to Blu-Ray high def and the reasons why I have finally been converted are these:
1) This player is 1.1 out of the box and more important has an Ethernet connection and is upgradeable to 2.0 and like the PS3 is future-proofed via firmware updates.
2) The player is super slimmed down to the size of a `normal\' dvd player and looks wonderful.
3) Despite the price, the picture output is as good as more expensive players and the sound is fine.
4) The player is backwards compatible and will upscale DVDs to 1080p (producing a picture even better than upscaling DVD players at 1080i & 1080p) and will even play audio CDs etc.
5) The start up time for BR discs is much faster than many more expensive models (ca 5-8 seconds on average) - so fast so as not to matter any more.
6) The Player is Region B coded, but I have tested `B\', non-coded (`0\') and imported `A-B-C\' BR\'s on it and they all play to the same quality (but note the player is not region free as usual with sony products).
7)A memory stick port is provided to fully utilise Blu-Ray Live additional features.
8)The player is as quiet as a mouse during feature playback and the disc draw is a smooth operator and sturdy enough.
9)The remote control, as usual with Sony, is of the larger sort, clearly laid out and easy to use (not like the awful little controls you usually get with DVD players) and also includes various sync and quick start options for Sony TV\'s and a TV volume key which is so often left off player remotes.
10)The player is easy to set up using the `Auto Setup\' option if , like me, you find some of the tecchy options double-dutch.
Ultimately though, it is the picture performance that matters most to the average user and this affordable player more than delivers with the highest quality playback of BD\'s and upscaled DVD\'s. No HDMI cable in the box, but then there never is with any manufacturer.
If you are not into games but love your DVD\'s, its time to go Blu-ray with this beauty folks!
