THANKS HERE IS THE OFFICIAL RESPONSE FROM SONY THAT JUST ARRIVED: Thank you for your recent e-mail. As I understand you are enquiring about BDP-S790 specifications, and you would like to know if it would upscale video content steamed to it over DLNA. Kindly be informed that the player can...

Thanks so much for all this testing, it has really helped me! Just one other Q.... Is Spotify one of the downloadable apps for the 790?

Nice, thanks! Can we be sure that Servio is not upscaling it before it gets to the Sony? Also, do you see that the upscaling worked in terms of improving picture quality when you did your test?

Hi … Can anyone tell me if this box also upscales DLNA streamed videos to 1080p? WhatHiFi, is it something you tested although not explicitly mentioned in your review? Please let me know, as Sony are reluctant to answer the question… Thanks

Dear What Hifi … Your August 2012 edition gives a 5-star review for the Sennhesier CX495, but it is not listed as a product sold by the vendor on their own site. I also cannot find it on Kelkoo or Amazon. Can you please check that the correct model number was published? Thanks

The lossless route just isn’t for me at this moment in time (one day) and I want to stick with a format that is not vendor owned. I gleaned here the same information as that from other forums, although I trust the responses here more. In the end it looks like the best thing to do is just try it...

@ CHEBBY: Thanks, will check those out and run a compariason myself. @ LEE / DAVE H: I have 90gig of MP3. If I go to lossless I will lose some of the streaming compatibility in my house, metadata functionality, and will only be able to caryy around with me a very limited subset of my collection...

@ PAUL HOBBS: All my music is currently in MP3 320CBr - except for the odd file. I was thinking of letting match do its thing and redownload all as the ACC256.

@ CHEBBY: OK, but can you qualify that statement with objective facts?

There are a number of similar posts and questions on this matter, but in the end most seem to run off-topic – as is the way with most WWW forums. My Q is specific and I would appreciate responses that stick to the comparison put forward. iTunes AAC 256 or WMP MP3 320cbr ….which produces the...

Hi WhatHifi ... As with Cookie Monster's opening comments I am also not going to stop reading after 16 years. However, I am also having delivery issues which go back to well before the snow arrived. I am still waiting for November, Awards, and December :-( Your guys n girls on helpdesk are...

LOL. Brilliant. Am in full agreement with all your posts on this topic edsib1. It's sad to see so many people blindly thinking they have a good deal, the best options, and greatest hardware...when all they have, in fact, is a lack of grip on the realities of modern technology and the value of...

No replies ..oh well..I guess you are all glued to the HD football. ANyway. I just found out it cannot stream WMVs via DLNA...so its useless to me. Back to the drawing board

Hi .. Yes, it is worth the extra cash to get the 370, and you can now find it for 99GBP inc delivery..see a post today on the news section of the WHiFi site. Also, yes, a good DvD upscaler can really transform them. The difference can be quite significant and generally breathes new life into...
