Sony are very much at the forefront of Blu-ray technology, and the BDP-S300 shows just what the format is capable of.
By using a specially developed blue laser, the Sony Blu-ray system stores many times more information than a conventional DVD. More information means that films can be shown in 1080p - the highest video quality possible. The upshot of this are superb levels of contrast, vivid colour and sensational realism.
As with other high definition DVD players, the BDP-S300 is also compatible with standard DVD discs. Combined with the 1080p upsampling, this allows you to view your existing DVDs at a level of resolution higher than ever before.
As you'd expect from this cutting edge format, there's also first-rate connectivity available. The HDMI socket links up with Bravia Theatre Sync to provide single remote functionality for a full Sony home cinema system. A choice of electrical coaxial and optical digital outputs are provided as is a handy 5.1 channel analogue audio output - perfect for outputting Dolby Digital Plus to a suitable AV receiver.
Reflecting the high-tech specification is the stylish yet easy to use front panel. Although the button layout is straight forward, the subtle blue finish leaves no doubt as to the Blu-ray sophistication lying within.
All that's left to complete the perfect Blu-ray deal is the amazing price that your friends at Richer Sounds are offering the BDP-S300 for. Get down to your nearest store before they're all gone!
