Reviews for Blu-ray Players

 
Now that the high definition DVD format war is over and Blu-ray discs are commonly available from places like Blockbuster and Netflix, it might be time to consider purchasing a player although we recommend a player with Profile 2.0.

Reviews | 8 expert reviews (rating 75 / 100) • 105 user reviews: "On the BD85, playing the Jane Monheit/John Pizzarelli version of "They Can't Take That Away from Me," subtle details such as the sparkle finish of the drums, and the glowing red light on the guitar amp are reproduced cleanly, without any jagged or blurred edges...If you enjoy nature documentaries and concert films, frequently shot in 1080i/60 or 1080p/30 (and transferred to Blu-ray at 1080i/60), then the DMP-BD85 is the player for you...It brings out a fatter, slightly more prominent midrange, and an overall rounded off frequency response, free from the brittle treble that you can hear on some digital content...Overall, the audio output of the Panasonic player is top notch, if a bit low in overall level..." see less »

Reviews | 37 user reviews: "The price difference between the recent BDP-80 from Oppo and the older BDP-83 does not come without sacrifices, of course...What the BDP-80 doesn't have and its predecessor does is the RS-232 port...Well, that and the fact that Oppo doesn't recommend it for use with a big screen home theatre...That's why we thought it would be a good idea to create an email address for you to help us a little in finding gadgets we missed..." see less »
