I bought the Panasonic DMP-BD30 when it was released and I bought the 40GB PS3 about two weeks ago to replace my Xbox 360 Elite which I sold on Ebay. Both players are connected via HDMI to my Yamaha RX-1800 receiver. Now I have a major problem. The problem is which one to keep. Here are my pros (+) and cons (-) of both units for you to help me out with this decision.
Panasonic DMP-BD30 + Bitstream Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD and DTS HD-MA. + Excellent Blu-ray PQ. + Good loading time. + Reliable + Quiet fan noise. - Not very good DVD upscaling and deinterlacing. - LFE issue for uncompressed PCM soundtracks. Sony 40GB PS3 + Excellent Blu-ray PQ. + Onboard Dolby TrueHD decoding and does not have the LFE issue for uncompressed PCM soundtracks. + Very good DVD upscaling and deinterlacing. + Short loading time. + Quiet fan noise. - No onboard DTS-HD MA decoder (hopefully the rumor of the DTS-HD MA software update will fix it). - I read some messages that the blu-ray drive fails within a year. Currently, I'm 50/50 towards keeping both players, but I might change my mind later. Here are my reasons why that I may want to keep both players: Panasonic DMP-BD30 1. Will be my main blu-ray player. 2. Bitstreaming Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD and DTS-HD MA to my Yamaha RX-V1800 receiver. Sony 40GB PS3 1. Will be my main dvd upscaling player. 2. Will be my secondary blu-ray player. 3. Will be my gaming machine, but there aren't many games out yet. |
