Sony BDP-S570 and Sony W-series TV

[hobgoblin]

Hi there,

I've recently been looking at getting the BDP-S370 from Amazon.co.uk. However, I 've read on the What HiFi site, where individuals have reviewed it, that if you own a Sony Bravia W series TV it encounters sound problems:

"June 6, 2010 01:09

Sound drops out on Sony Bravia W series TV. As someone else said before, if you have a Sony W series TV do NOT buy, unless you can cope with the sound stopping on play back! Great picture, but seriously, not compatible with a same brand TV set!?!?! Sony, I think you need to investigate!"

This machine has a serious compatibility problem with Sony's W-series of Bravia TV sets. The problem lies in the sound falling out every few minutes, whether from a blu-ray disc, DVD or USB file. The machine works perfectly with my Samsung TV and a friend's old D-series Sony, but everyone with a W-series encounters this problem. Sony were as unhelpful as ever seeming not to even understand the issue. So, be warned at moment if you have W-series Bravia do not buy this - otherwise excellent - machine."

Does anyone know if this problem has been rectified with the BDP-S570, ie are there no sound problems if you use it with a Bravia W-series TV?

I did ask this question in a already active thread, but no-one seemed to answer it.

Thanks in advance
