AudioIdiot1,

1. Why?

2. Yes.

Get a Sony BDP-S370 instead.

AudioIdiot1,

What doesn't decode DTS-HD MSTR or Dolby Tru-HD?

The Sony has a lot to offer besides pristine sound and picture quality.

If you are brand-averse, then try the Panasonic DMP-BD85.

There's the LG BD390 from Richer Sounds which will fit your bill nicely

the bds 2900

i must say though my father has the sony 360 and it does give him ex pic quality and sound, dont think he uses it for anything else so cant comment.

i do like the review and look of the cambridge azur 650 bd and at 400 quid from rs seems ok but not looked anywhere else so i,m off to have a look

cheers

 

[audioidiot1]

yes i was looking at that. i,m led to believe that lg are much better than they were

Audioidiot1,

Functionality aside (if that is indeed what you are looking for), the Panasonic DMP-BD85 has a better picture and sound quality than the LG-BD390.
