4 out of 5 stars Excellent value for money with minor limitations   January 2, 2009
Chris White (United Kingdom)
This entry-level player provides great picture and sound. I have just two gripes (hence why I'm not giving it the full five stars). Updating the firmware is a pain when your router is located on the other side of the house. There is no wireless connectivity (unlike Sony's PS3) and a network cable is necessary. Despite having component inputs on my desktop (which is near my router) I've been unable to get it to display a picture so I can monitor the menu when updating.

Also, the 'resume play' function has not worked on any Blu-ray disc I've tried. A single press of the 'stop' button should enable the player to remember where you were to continue an interrupted viewing. Not so in my experience, I'm afraid: a full reload is required every time.

However, these quibbles should not detract from the player's merits. It really is a first-class machine. A couple of tips: for full 1080p DVD upscaling to work, you must select the appropriate menu option as it's set on 'auto' by default and will play DVDs at 480p unless changed. Finally, no HDMI cable in the box, which I think is usual anyway for this type of product.

I've recently purchased this product and heard you can get a few free Bluray discs with it. How do I redeem these discs? Thank you.

I brought this about a month ago having read the what hi-fi review on it.I had been waiting for a good quality sony blu-ray player to come out (as what hi-fi had not been to kind to sonys other efforts up to now)and this was finally it from what they said.I set it up to my newly purchased 26inch v4000 and wasnt dissapointed.The picture and sound were outstanding.It also upscales standard dvds to 1080 making the quality of them brillaint.Its a bargain sony player for under 200 quid.You really cant go wrong with this player.

This is a fantastic offering from Sony. Of particular note is the amazing upscaling of standard definition DVDs. I bought a few Blurays to replace Standard DVDs and played them sequentially. I am sure the Blurays must be better, but in all honesty I couldn't see THAT much difference.

The startup time is a bit longer than a standard DVD.

I have a Sony Bravia TV (18 months old) , and was a bit disappointed that they did not communicate directly as promised in the manual, but this is more to do with 'obsolescence' of the TV.

Stunning, Crisp picture and Sound to match. To get the best out of it connect up to a Sony Bravia. The sound knocks your socks off if you like it loud like i do! Amazon are now offering 3 free discs plus when you register with Sony they'll send you another two! Happy Days!
