Have him equal today unpacked and connected after delivery - am delighted with the performance. The unit operates whisper-quiet, DVDs as well as Blu-Ray rendered in absolute top quality. Impressed by the launch of the Blu-ray after a few seconds reading time. The movies run smoothly without jerking or screen interference. The menus are almost self-explanatory. I have wanted and after reading some tests then ordered just as a player. Strong buy recommendation!
