Sylvania Blu-Ray DVD Player
Great price for a Blu-Ray DVD Player. This is our first blu-ray player so I don't know if it is indicative of blu-ray players in general, but it sure takes a long time to respond to commands. Press the "open" button and you wait and wait for the disk tray to come out. So long, that you're wondering if you pressed the button but eventually it does open. Otherwise, great value. ....

Excellent Player
No problems here - seems to do a nice job upscaling regular DVDs and provides a great picture with BR discs. The included HDMI cable is a plus although good quality cables are only in the $5-6 range anyway. I got this when Amazon was offering a $100. discount if you bought 4 BR discs from a selected group, so it was a great deal. This player is rated #1 in the latest issue of the leading Consumer mag. .... Read more

Load times slow, good value, decodes all audio
The unit was tested on a 42" Panasonic Plasma, and in conjunction with an Onkyo 605 Receiver.

The first test was load time. From power on to movie studio wallpaper the machine took 1:30 to power up and load-about 20 seconds more than my Panasonic BD30K.

The second test was with the Men in Black Blu-Ray. Picture and sound quality were excellent, and the movie played fine all the way through.

The next test was upscaling. Unfortunately at 32 minutes in a Seas .... Read more

Decent bargain-priced Blu-ray player
EDITED 10/14/08 - It looks like the price has been reduced to $199 now, so this player is more attractive. It is a four-star unit at this price point. The review was written when the price was $279 and the price reduced the star rating. This is a very reasonable price for the player and I expect that it will suit many people. Recommended.

Sylvania has built an outstanding player!
Sylvania has produced a real winner in this Blu-Ray player! I hooked it up to a 42inch HDTV using the high speed HDMI cable that came with it (a big plus in itself). I connected the audio to my receiver using the coaxial digital output. I turned it on and waited a bit less than a minute for it to power up. I anxiously inserted my first blu-ray disk. It started playing perfectly a about 30 seconds later. The picture and sound are completely outstanding. This could not have been any easier!
