Hi All - Blu-ray Forum

rockman101 · 01-26-2008, 03:33 PM

I just wanted to quickly introduce myself. I have been a long time reader of this site but first time poster. The first time I saw Blu last summer I knew that I couldn't do without it. I now have almost 50 Blu Rays and counting. I currently have a ps3 but am looking at either buying a Samsung BDP1400 or Panasonic DMP-BD30 but am undecided on which one to buy. Anyways thank you all for your posts as this site has answered every question that I have ever had on Blu Ray. Keep up the good work.

Welcome!!

I recommend the Panasonic. It has more up-to-date features and is an all around better machine. Folks here at Blu-ray.com rave about it.

We'll see you in the forums!

hello & welcome. do you have a receiver that can decode the audio? if so than i would go with the panny bd30. i have one and it is simply awesome. i heard alot of problems with the samsung 1400 and also firmware probelms. no problems with the panny, good luck

go for the panasonic samsung slacks with there firmware updates

Or wait a bit and pick up the Panasonic BD50 for just a few quid more. It'll bitstream and internal decode the HD audio.

Thanks for the intro - it's good to know you.

Thanks for the welcomes and advice. I have an Onkyo TX-SR605 that I picked up last fall. I'm going to look into the Panasonic.
