      Hi SaligS,

      We are truly heartened to learn that your BDP-S1700U is serving as a testament to the Sony name! We take great pride in ensuring that even our most compact and accessible players deliver the high-quality performance and long-term value our customers have come to expect from us over the decades.

      While this player is known for its reliability, the excellent quality you're noticing is also due to our Precision CinemaHD upscale technology. This feature breathes new life into your existing DVD collection by converting the signal to a resolution closer to 1080p Full HD, ensuring your favorite films look sharp and vibrant on modern screens. Combined with TRILUMINOS™ color support for a wider, more natural palette, it’s designed to provide a premium cinematic experience that punches well above its weight class.

      Thank you for making Sony part of your home entertainment.

      Regards,
      Dominick Sony_US
