With dual HDMI outs, you can send one output to your 3D TV and another to your legacy A/V receiver. It's a feature, much like 3D, that is currently highly touted, but not of much real use to the average consumer.īut the Sony does have a lot of really great features. In any case, this Sony is ready to upconvert your movies to 4K so you can play them on that 4K TV or projector you don't have and probably never will. Why do I think that even just saying that is going to get me hate mail. The resolution that best approximates film grain and thus the "more or less" true digital equivalent of actual film. But once we determine that the video and audio quality are excellent, as they are with this Sony BDP-S790, well, then I want to see what I get for my $230*.Īnd what do I get? 4K up conversion of video content. Now, despite what I just said, I really do care about quality. That pretty much leaves features and aesthetics. But what about the rest of you - the rest of US? Well, the video quality is pretty much a done deal with HDMI. Most of our readers already know who the big dogs are in that high-end market and if they want to pay $400 or more for a player, they're free to do so. It used to be that we tested all manner of video and audio quality characteristics using test discs and calibration gear. Blu-ray player reviews are a strange thing.
