Does what I need it for... My older Sony AV Amp.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I discovered my new Optoma 142x projector wouldn't work with my older Sony AV Amp and the other Sony 580 Blu-ray player I have for 3-D, so I had to find a solution and this machine has a separate HDMI for audio. It does what I need it for but it does have a couple of querks I don't like. It up scales to 4K and there doesn't seem to be any way to adjust that back down to 1080 unless you just shut off up scaling completely and that gives you a crummy looking DVD experience with many disks. My old 580 up scales DVD's to 1080 and they used to look great. If I leave updcaling on it bumps everything up to 4K and then the projector has to scale that back to 1080 and again you get a crummy picture. Blu-ray disks and 4k disks look outstanding. Streaming from Netflix and other services take a few seconds to find and display HD, so the first minute or two of anything looks crummy until it achieves full 1080 resolution. The Optoma 142x is not a 4K projector but this was the only solution that seems to work to give me 3-D. Over all the pictures are stunning with normal Blu-ray disks. The 800 also does not seem to have as many smart apps as my old 580, but mostly I just use Netflix and Amazon on the 800 and a Roku for everything else.

Amazing unit just like my last Sony Pro
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.12 years ago I had purchased a Sony professional line rack size DVD player it worked flawlessly no problems I finally after 12 years decided to get another pro line DVD player but I wanted one that was 4K compliant and also good upscale . After waiting almost 2 years Sony finally release this new unit which is absolutely spectacular it has great picture quality upscaling with the regular DVDs works just fine and when you play any 4K or even Blu-ray content it is absolutely stunning on a Sony television built for that kind of resolution . I will definitely suggest that you purchased high-quality HDMI cable's with the set and if you can get your hands on redmere technology cables this works even better this is absolutely a wonderful unit. This is specifically designed for the videophile viewer and does a wonderful job you can almost pretend you're like at the movies at home.

Sounds Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a nice surround setup and without going to the next level of audiophile offerings in Bluray players, I thought I would try this. I am extremely pleased with the audio and would buy again. I am moving to a 4K tv in the near future as my receiver and player are ready but cannot comment on 4K video but was rated high, but can say the DVD content was great using this player.

Very happy with purchase
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Many reviews said it lacked a front display for knowing movie time, etc. The remote has a button 'display' that shows all needed info on the tv screen! Great Hulu streaming. Heavy unit can't bounce around. Very happy with purchase plus 2 free 4K movies!

Robust and easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this following the Wirecutter recommendation. It was $150 as a Christmas doorbuster. Some cheaper plastic units from Samsung are quite noisy, which I wanted to avoid. This one is quiet enough that I don't hear it once the movie starts. It loads DVD, Blu-Ray and HD Blu-Ray's in less than 10 seconds and the remote is easy to use in the dark. I don't use the streaming features. But the movie playback is excellent on my Samsung KS8000 4K Television. I would certainly purchase again.

A good 4k player
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a good player and is solidly built, but it has few apps if that is a concern for anyone these days and the power light is very small. There are no other indicators on the front. Depending on placement, you may not see the light. It is a wide player. Excellent quality on 4k playback and it plays the 4k discs my Xbox One S couldn't.
