    Hi Guys,

    Back again to see if you can again give me a great deal. This time i was wondering if you could recommend a nice blu ray player. I had my eye on the
    BDP310, but i am open to suggestions. I think my budget would be €150. I would like to hopefully pick this up in Dublin. Friday will be my last day in town.:D

    Thanks in Adavnce

    does this have DTS-HD?

    and is it available in dublin? and can i have a boardies price?

    these br players massively confuse me with their different profiles? whats the story with internet connection on them? can you browse websites and the like?

    Hi Folks

    A little run down of our new Blu-Ray player range..

    BDP2700 BD-Live (Profile2) Wired Ethernet, no NET TV. Wont output DTS MA via HDMI - Retails €99.99
    BDP3100 BD-Live (Profile2) Wired Ethernet, No NET TV. will output DD TrueHD and DTS MA via HDMI - Retails €149.99
    BDP5180 BD-Live (Profile2) Wired Ethernet (wireless dongle to become available apparently) , 3D Ready, NET TV. will output DD TrueHD and DTS MA via HDMI - Retails €199.99
    BDP7500B2 BD-Live (Profile2) Wired Ethernet (wireless dongle to become available apparently), 3D Ready, NET TV. will output DD TrueHD and DTS MA via HDMI or can decode internally and output via analogue outs - Retails €249.99

    The BDP2700 is a great little player thats best suited to senarios where it will be plugged only into a TV.
    It produces a great image - we use a few in the shop.

    The BDP3100 and up is where things get a little more interesting as these players can happily plug into an AV receiver via HDMI and give you access to the various uncompressed sound formats on BR Discs

    The BDP7500B2 will be perfect for those of us whose (older..) AV receivers dont decode DDTrueHD or DTS MA put have 5.1/7.1 analogue inputs as this player can decode these formats internally and pass the decoded signal to the amp - meaning you can still enjoy the newer sound formats on your existing amp.

    Hope that clears things up:)

    Cheers
    Ash
