Blu ray and SACD

On 08-13-09, Neilspeed " I really could not find much online on using a Blu ray player in an audio setting."

Then, perhaps, you might try my series of columns. ;-)

Kal,

Which of your "music in the round" columns do you recommend to learn about a) how best to utilize blu ray players with high end audio systems; and b) comparison of the audio performance of various blu ray players? Thanks.

Those are running topics. The column is not a tutorial.

BTW, several new universal players were announced/shown at CEDIA to join those already noted.

Just to add to the Play Station 3 comments. Only the older 60 Gig and older 80 Gig PS3 play SACD. I don't believe the newer 80 Gig, 40 Gig or the 120 Gig do. I have the older 80 Gig and it works great, plus like Buconero117 said, software update is great and it plays SACD and MP3 over a network as well as videos over a network. My favorite option on my PS3 80 Gig is the ability to play HiDef video. I have a Canon HiDef camcorder that records to SD memory cards. I pop them into the PS3 card reader and get up to 1080P video on my plasma.
