Looking for an inexpensive Blue ray player


I am asking for suggestions on the purchase of a inexpensive Blue ray player for a living room system which serves as a modest 2.1 video and music system. I have two other systems which are music only. I am looking to use HDMI output for video and digital coax out into a DAC for sound. Something that could be purchased under $300. I will explore on Amazon for options. Thanks.

The Sony UHP-H1 is fantastic. Very good sound quality and excellent picture. It retails for $350 but goes on sale occasionally for $300. I love mine.

Cheers,

Scott

I use the Playstation 3, you can find them cheap. It has HMDI/Optical out and the player itself is great quality, the only issue is the fan is kinda loud, so if your room is small and you will be sitting close to it it may annoying.
I just went through this about a month ago. Read lots of reviews and used my personal experience as well as other videophiles. I would suggest you find new or like new Pioneer Elite, Sony, Marantz, Denon and Yamaha. If you need specific models pm me. I bought mine through eBay and USaudiomart.

p.s. If you need one with a front read-out pay close attention. Many newer models can only be operated when the TV is on! There is no front panel display to show operation. sometimes I may want to pop in a CD or Music DVD and just listen. Without a display you cannot see track, time, replay, elapsed time etc....

Hope this helps:>)
