Single DVD player covers it all
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found a cheaper DVD player on Amazon that is borderline garbage. For the extra cost, this Sony player covers it all including regular DVDs.

Posted .Hi JPjr,
We’re glad you decided to invest in the BDP-S1700U! It’s great to hear that the superior build quality and reliable playback for both Blu-rays and DVDs made the extra cost worthwhile compared to cheaper alternatives. With its 1080p upscaling and TRILUMINOS color, your entire collection should look much better than on a standard player. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Okay….but!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first there was a problem w/ dvd adapting to Snart tv. Many selections on dvd remote. Found correct play button (not obvious choice from previous dvd player). Once it starting playing the sound was muffled. Toward middle of film figured out the audio button needs to be pressed….ugh! All is well now. Haven’t tried a blu-ray film yet.,,,wish me luck!
