Sony Bdp S1700 Playstation Network

This is my second BDP S1700. I am so happy with it's performance That I just purchased the second one in June of 2024.

I paired this with a Sony SSCS8 center channel speaker. And I have to mention that set up is super easy if you hook-up with a sub-woofer cable. I added the sub-woofer to my 2015 home theater system featuring a Sony XBR-55X850B 55-inch 4K TV, STR-DN1050 7.2 Channel Hi-Res 4K AV receiver and BDP-S6500 Blu-Ray Disc player to enhance the audio richness and to have that “extra punch” when watching movies. Made some minor acoustic tweaks with min-max levels, frequency settings and switched to the power saving mode which is nice when not needed or not in use. Blu-Ray DVDs sound clear and balanced and now the ‘up-scaling’ of the BDP-S6500 to near 4K quality can be heard and felt for an improved viewing experience! And now digital music sounds quite good with HD audio quality from either a CD, Wi-Fi or USB source. The dynamic range combined with the crisp tight bass makes the audio very pleasing for digital and high definition audio. It’s tough to imagine any speakers that can match Sony at this price point. And that’s the beauty of Sony products - affordability that doesn’t compromise on quality or looks.

My Sony Bravia is the best, and my PlayStation. The best gaming system with best television how can you go wrong.

I connect these headphones into a Sony Playstation Vita and listen to songs using the Sony Music Unlimited application. This gives me adequate emphasis of bass to help me determine the notes which are sometimes difficult to hear and decipher. When wanting to play along to the music simultaneously using either guitar or bass, I simply plug MDR-7506 through the headphone port on subwoofer/amp combo or DI box. The Playstation Vita is then connected to auxillary port using appropriate auxillary cable. I then have the option of muting the output to the internal speaker depending on whether or not I want my neighbors to hear. MDR-7506 also come with a pouch to carry headphones and cable in. The earpads are soft which make extended listening appropriate. Though, I am fearful these pads may breakdown or tear at a faster rate or higher percentage. This is ok since the earpads themselves can be replaced without buying a complete new product. Another concern is the thin wire connection run independently to the left and right speakers. They could become caught within the sliding adjustment piece that is used to accomodate different head sizes. No worry just something to be aware and cautious of in advance. Overall, the sound is excellent with great clarity and bass. The price was just right for my budget. I wanted to splurge and spend more on this component of my system. However, after testing several other higher priced models, I simply could not justify passing up the quality this unit provided. Legitimacy confirmed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received these not too long ago, set them up to the Sony PlayStation 4 and let me tell ya, the sound quality on these bad boys are top notch.

Sounds great on the PlayStation 4!!

used it as a hub on my sons playstation

Delighted with this Blu Ray player. My previous Blu Ray player was Pioneer Elite's flagship BDP-09 and other than a rather slow shutdown process, this player is phenomenal!

I bought a few Pioneer BDP-35 albums several years ago. They hold up well with continual use. I recently needed more albums for a project and immediately looked for the same albums. I'm so glad B & H stocks the same product.

Amazing. The 4k upconverted output is at least as good on my old Oppo BDP-103. The DVD upconversion is stunning. Of course, 4k HDR output is perfect, especially for the OLED output setting. Works great as a DLNA client, too.
