Samsung continues to expand its lineup of Blu-ray products with its fourth-generation Blu-ray player, BD-P1500, featuring the latest in Blu-ray technology as well as advanced connectivity for use with other digital devices.
Designed with fans of multimedia technology in mind, the BD-P1500 easily connects to other digital devices through an HDMI 1.3 port with CEC for expanded color delivery and easy home theater control. The P1500 has BD Profile 1.1 Bonus View and is BD Live Ready. With its built-in Ethernet connection and USB input users can quickly upgrade their BD-P1500 with the latest firmware.
Audiophiles will love the BD-P1500 for going beyond standard Dolby Digital audio playback to include Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TruHD and DTS-HD High resolution (scheduled to available later this year via firmware update).
The BD-P1500 will be available in June 2008.
Hector – you’re very welcome! A question: How did you know I linked to your pages?
On the subject, I stand behind Samsung products (they’re damn good!) even though some funny business may have been going on with the Board of Directors. I now have to decide whether I’ll grab this Samsung BD-P1500, the Panasonic DMP-BD50, or the Sony BDP S-550. They seem to all be great-sounding next generation choices for Blu-Ray Disc players.
