  I first had the Sharp... it wasn't.
  
  Then I bought the Sammy... after one weekend I took it back.
  
  The Sony is the old version, so I didn't buy it to try it.
  
  I waited a few weeks until the new Panasonic BD30 arrived and bought it day one. Been lovin' it ever since.
  
  Also.... Be sure to examine the HDMI 1.3 cables at www.monoprice.com

  Or get the sharp cheap, if you aren't going to wait.

  Panny DB30 has good reputation, it is a topseller in spite of a high price, and it has dts HD MA on HDMI.
  
  I just bought the new PS3 40GB, but the fan noise and user interface is still a problem. As well as using 280W ! A heater in the summer.
  
  I expect the PS3 to get an firmware update to do dts HD MA. If not I will get the Panasonic DB30 or 50.
  
  I find the SONY players dated.

  • Ole, go into the menu and set it up for disc auto-play - Jazz Inmate 13:41:59 01/17/08 (1)

    That way you turn on the PS3 by putting in a disc and never need bother with the menu. It plays the disc automatically.

    • If I'm in the hunt, I'd look for a clearanced 1.0 profile player. - oscar 07:43:51 01/17/08 (0)

      I'm not a big fan of PIP/IME/internet connectivity so the advanced profile stuff doesn't mean anything to me.
      
      My system also needs a player with 5.1 analog outputs if I want support for lossless/uncompressed audio (the PS3 can only support this through HDMI and I'm not sure how well it's supported). If you appreciate good audio in your HT system, you'll want to figure in support for lossless/uncompressed audio.
