If I'm not mistaken, aren't the new version of the Sony BD players SACD capable? Like the 370 and the 470?

*edit* I just checked sonystyle.ca, and indeed the 370 and 470 listed on the site are SACD capable.

I can pick up the 370 for a little over $200au. Do either have the ability to shift subtitles for blu ray films?

The only players' that I know that can shift subs are the Oppo's. I'm not sure about the Sony's. Let me do a little more digging.

*edit* No, the 370 can't shift subs, not according to the manual.

Yes, the Sony BDP-S370 will play SACDs. About $150.00 to $175.00 USD, and will likely get a little cheaper in the coming months.
