What is the Bu-ray plauyer that you are using?

My small HT, I went all Sony based on TV choice, then AVR and Blu-Ray Player for the ease of unified remotes in March 2018

article mentions x700, I chose UBP-X800, so far unbeatable.

I bought a  couple of highly regarded and recommended Oppo’s, compared, no better sound or video, in HT or 2 channel system, Balanced or RCA, sold them, kept the Sony.

SACD/CD, I went thru 9 players until I found and love vintage xa5400ES.

 

When using it a playstation 3 first generation.

My humble Oppo 103 player has among the best sounding audio coming out of the analog section I've heard.  The player's interface was also beautiful and responsive.

I've upgraded to an LG HD BD player to get 4k.  The audio/video performance is fine since I'm now playing through an Anthem MRX 540, but the UI performance is rather slow or unresponsive and it's not 100% integrated with my LG TV's remote.  It also has a hard time with starting certain disks I use for calibration.

If I had to do it again I would not recommend the LG as a great choice, but if all you do is stick a disk in and play, you'll be fine.

I use LG HD player for HT. I don't know of any HT/bluray player that is good for quality 2 channel sound. Iike most here, I use a CD transport going to my DAC for 2 channel sound. In fact, since I don't listen to CDs often, I didn't realize how bad my blueray player was at playing 2 channel sound until I went to Roon. I decided to compare music streamed via Qobuz to the same CD and I was surprised that the streamed music was much superior. Upon thinking about it, it was obvious to me that the cheap built-in DAC in my bluray player can't hold a candle to my $15K stand alone. I promptly bought a CD transport.
