Review on 💿 Sony BDU-X10S Blu-ray 2X BD-ROM/8x DVD-ROM SATA Drive with Software - Black by Zach Flores

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great Blu-ray player at a reasonable price

I was blown away by the image when I connected my computer to a 32 inch 720p TV. Even at 720p, the picture is excellent. Even the upconversion from a regular DVD was impressive. I also have an HD DVD player and I think Blu-ray could be better. With a Geforce 8600GT 256MB I didn't experience any stuttering. If you don't want to spend $400 on a Blu-Ray player, this is a great alternative. The included PowerDVD BD software is nice and works great. If your computer is connected through a stereo system, be sure to check the SPIF box in the sound settings to get 5.1/DTS sound. I highly recommend this Blu-ray drive. I think SONY has the best technology for that.
