But yeah if money wasn't an obstacle or a factor I'd hands down pick the Pioneer.

Thank you both for your input ,This is the stuff i need to hear

How is the support for pioneer and how do you upload your firmware ?

Call Pio "Parts" not the store in CA, and order a FW CD. It's free. Insert CD and follow directions. Simple as pie.

If anything, you would just have to pay S&H if they don't ship to CA. I know it is free to US owners.

The current FW is 1.21 now, I haven't been on AVS lately. I'm going to call tomorrow and have them ship the FW disk.


Here's another review.

Thats one awesome review,iam saving that one thank you.When its all said in done i don't care how long a movie takes to load i just want the best PQ and sound i can get out of a player.

If i decide this is what i would pay for it and where i would buy it

Nothing, as of yet. Well except the built in one included with my TV. But that's going as soon as I can collect enough money to pass go, and get my system up and running.

I attended a "review" where all sorts of players were tested for all sorts of features, and the Pio sounded best to me, through what was being used. It was a sum of some receivers, amps, speakers, etc. "donated" for the review. I feel my choice in BR players was validated and I cannot wait to get 5.1 going.

Well I purchased the Pioneer. There were some problems in the beginning. But with the latest firmware the player is much better. The picture is just fantastic with the Pioneer.
