It's somewhat cheap for what you are looking for.

does that player have blu-ray 2.0? i've heard only the new players have it, but i've been out of the loop.

thanks for the link though, looks like a solid player. shitty remote though

 

[Xero]

nope, no 2.0 Blu Ray and no way to upgrade either. and yea the remote does suck. You'll have to wait another 4-5 months before you'll see a player with 2.0 and 5.1 audio.

 

[Timorous Scott]

so there are no players out with 2.0 and 5.1 out?

thats fucking insane, blu-ray is dropping the ball with that

blu-ray is dropping the ball in many ways

the first stand-alone player with 2.0 is the panasonic dmp bd-50 and it was just released for the bargain basement price of seven hundred fucking dollars - blu-ray is going on 2 years old, right? wtf?

the triple is the least ridiculous option, and if you don't want a triple nerding up your movie room then you're basically fucked

but blu-ray won, and now we're stuck with it

It was really, the best and most sustainable product.

From a technical standpoint, it's undoubtedly better.

As far as longevity goes, only time will tell, but the current market model isn't exactly a slam dunk for the average consumer.

Somebody needs to step up with some cheaper stand alone players.

I was being sarcastic.....

My cheap ass, I factor in cost when I use the word Best....

 

[Timorous Scott]

so what blu-ray players can be upgraded to 2.0 and have 5.1 analog out?

(if any)

 

[Timorous Scott]

bump for hope

 

[Timorous Scott]

any players with 5.1 analog out and blu-ray 2.0 on the market now?

 

[Kristian Meller]

Panasonic BD50.

 

[Timorous Scott]

thanks, can't see to find a picture of the back/confirm it has analog 5.1 in. $500 is a bit much, but that thing looks insane

 

[Kristian Meller]

I wouldn't recommend it if it didn't actually have 5.1 analogue outputs, but if you have to see a picture, you can find the manual here, in any other language than English, oddly enough. A few pages into the manual there are multiple pictures of the back of the machine.
