Recommendations for Blu-ray Player

Blueray players seem to be few and far between these days. Like the previous responses, I don’t think there’s anything on the market that would be a blueray player AND have the Amazon UHD app/capability with a coax out. 
I was thinking you could utilize a Amazon Fire TV Cube with HDMI routed through a receiver (for audio playback) and then to the tv (for video), but even then, Amazon limits their audio stream to 16 bit...

Curious myself if there’s something out there that fits your needs. Interesting situation.

Check out the Yamaha BD-S681. It has an Ethernet port, plus analog audio, coax, and HDMI outputs, and you might be surprised how good the internal DAC performs to the analog outs. For streaming, you can use a UPnP app like mconnect, or use the WiFi Direct feature to stream anything you can play on a WiFi connected device, like AmazonUHD.  

I have a Yamaha BD-A1040, and I can tell you, trying to stream any video from it is a painful and terrible experience. And the internal DAC? Nope, all my CD play goes digital cable out to my PS Audio DAC>2 channel pre. For me, it’s basically a transport, and the rare DVD or BlueRay disc use, but again, that is almost never used anymore. Not with the options available by streaming devices and services.

I have a Yamaha AV receiver which drives all my HT 5.1 sound, including my Yamaha DVD/BlueRay via an HDMI to the AV receiver. All my music is 2 channel and separate (amp, pre, and sources), the pre-amp has a pass-through for the front main speakers when in HT mode for watching TV and movies.

Pretty simple really. My Roku is connected to the TV via one of its HDMI ports, then sound from the TV to the AV receiver via another HDMI (ARC) port (I don’t need an optical cable for sound from the TV). So, all video streaming is done by my Roku (or Samsung smart TV) and sound fed to my AV receiver via the ARC HDMI. My DVD/BlueRay connects to the AV receiver via HDMI for 5.1 playback. And again, for music use, connects to my DAC via digital cable. Again, many video and music/radio streaming options with the Roku, including Tidal, although I don’t use Tidal through the Roku, but can.

Bottom line, I doubt anyone will be too happy streaming through a DVD/BlueRay player available today. Some say Oppo’s are better in that respect, but not made anymore, so non-upgradable for various existing and new services. That is a technology that has been surpassed by a Roku, Fire Stick, or similar, is a much better experience, and has updatable OS software via internet connection. These players/streamers like my Yamaha haven’t had an update in months if not years, and cannot come close to the performance of the alternatives available.

I don’t have cable, I switched to streaming my TV (or by antenna for air reception). It’s the future, and a future I doubt any of the DVD/BlueRay players can or will try to compete with going forward.

Marantz.... 

@bkeske wow, that sounds like a big plate of spaghetti cabling. Think I'd have to see a drawing to comprehend it properly.
Yes, we too (like many others) cut the cable when Netflix went online - 2008'ish. So it's been... over a decade? How can that much time have passed - feeling old.

There is a full HT system in the basement (Denon AVR-X7400H, Xbox1S, 7.4.2 surround (if you count the GoldenEar Tritons built-in active bass as subs - which I do), all the 'surround' effect speakers are Martin Logan (SLM-XLs and in-ceilings). Honestly, I wouldn't mess with that system unless there was no other option.

The 'primary' 2-ch system consists of NAD C388 class D/H? (with BluOS2i and HDMI-2 modules added) run through ATI class A/B (for testing class D vs A/B) and various speakers turn-through the stable - it's a bit of a test-bed for music listening and system tweaking in a dedicated space upstairs.

This project has to do with the 'secondary' 2ch system built into the 'primary' 2ch system - for fun/discovery. Linkwitz LXmini speakers - which I have found to outperform practically everything, including Martin Logan electrostats (which I currently have for sale), and Tekton DI (w/factory upgrade) that I sold very recently. Problem with LXmini is, if you want to tweak them to your liking (like voice them to match Tektons - haha), you can't go the Pass Labs passive crossover route - you must use a 4-channel DSP. Problem with DSP (even the miniDSP4x10HD that I use) is the weak (by some standards) built-in DAC. So how to get the most from a DAC... use USB or coax inputs (optical is limited). The 4x10HD has one (1) coax out - but 2 are needed to produce 4 independent channels required by LXmini. Enter the miniDSP nanoDIGI (with 1 coax in and 4 coax outs and no DACs). Then all you need is two (or in my case 4 - gotta control that sub bass) stereo DACs.
I chose the economical yet highly rated and known to be warm (non-analytical) Topping E30 (x4). This secondary 'fun' system is to be connected like this:

Multi-disc streamer --coax(x1)--> miniDSP 4x10HD (for volume control and input switching) --coax(x1)--> miniDSP nanoDIGI (for active LXmini crossover) --coax(x4)--> Topping E30 (x4) --RCA(x4pr) --> ATI 6012 (12ch amp)
--Spkr(x4)--> LXmini speakers (play down to 35Hz)
--Spkr(x4 bridged = 220wX2)--> open-baffle subs (play below 35Hz)

Notice the small issue above with the miniDSP4x10HD - where it has only one coax input for digital sources - then it also has balanced and unbalanced inputs to be used for analog sources (but those are AD-converted at the input). With this system architecture, all digital sources will have only one DA conversion - performed simultaneously (with ease) by four (4) Topping E30's.

I just need to find that multi-disc streamer with AmazonUHD, coax and HDMI outputs. Even if it had just HDMI out, I could get-by using an audio extractor - but that would likely limit the signal quality, as those extractors are pretty cheap (looking).

@limomangus I did find one Marantz product that is close, the ND8006 is a CD-playing streamer with HEOS. My HT AVR is a Denon with HEOS, and it has Amazon UHD capability (think all HEOS does). ND8006 is missing video entirely, but it does have a coax input - where I could connect the coax output of the Sony Blu-ray player. It just seems like an expensive solution for not being complete. I find nothing in the Denon lineup that fits the bill.

@bkeske the smart TV idea might have merit - if it had a coax output that would pass-through audio from the Sony Blu-ray player HDMI connection - that search is beyond me... way too many choices when TV shopping.
