Sony BDP-S790 Pro Reviews

Date

AVForums‘s review Edit

As we have come to expect from Sony, the S790 is a thing of beauty with an elegant design, curved matte black chassis and brushed metal effect on the top. The touch sensitive controls add a hint of sophistication and the build quality is very good giving the player a solid feel. At the rear are two HDMI outputs, which can be handy if you have an older amp, but otherwise the connections are fairly standard and there are no 7.1 analogue audio outputs. The remote control is simple but effective and the menu system, whilst an acquired taste, is very responsive. The player is reasonably quiet in operation, although there is some noise when navigating discs and the load up times could be quicker but the energy efficiency is excellent.

The Sony BDP-S790 is an excellent Blu-ray player and deserves serious consideration if you’re looking to jump into Blu-ray for the first time or you’ve caught a case of upgrade-itis. It offers flawless playback of Blu-ray Discs, outstanding DVD upconversion, and more streaming services than you can shake a stick at. The best Blu-ray players I’ve used are the Oppo BDP-93 and BDP-95, and while the Sony BDP-S790’s build quality is inferior to the Oppos’, its performance equals theirs in nearly every way. At only $250, it receives my highest recommendation.

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

Sony's latest, best Blu-ray player is a little pricier than the competition, but it has a few features that make it stand out from the crowd. We think Sony's hit a winner with the BDP-S790's speed and diverse range of features.
