In Reply to: poll: if it looked like a stand-alone player, would you buy a... posted by Joe Murphy Jr on January 12, 2008 at 13:05:05:
There's no 5.1 analogue outputs which I'd probably need for my Arcam AVR350 receiver to get highest resolution audio, although if I looked into it it 'may' be possible to get uncompressed PCM via the digital output.
That's a side issue though, as for me to buy ANY BluRay player it would have to outperform the upsampling Denon DVD5910CI I currently use, and for many months now I've been wondering exactly how a decent BluRay or HD-DVD player would compare to it on a 42" or 50" screen.
As luck would have it, in this month's 'Home Cinema Choice' magazine a reader's system article explains that this particular reader bought a PS3 and compared the BluRay of X-men to the DVD upsampled on the Denon and in his opinion the DVD was superior so the PS3 is now resigned to being a games console.
That being said, the PS3 appears to be excellent value for what it is and if I didn't have the Denon I might be tempted, but does it have a decent remote or do you have to use the joypad?

Chris redmond.
