Philips BDP7200 reviewed by Lilly Lefa

August 28, 2008



I bought my Philips BDP7200 from Amazon.com. This is my second BD player. I was waiting for the format war to end once it did I read a review Cnet.com on the internet that said you might consider waiting to making the jump to BD until the next generation of players to come out on the market.

This player loads pretty fast From what I heard it is much faster then older previous models. I was upgrading coming from a LG 5 disc up converting DVD player and that thing was slow so I'm very satisfied. The picture isawesome and the audio is great too. I don't even have it connected to a amp that does Dolby Tru-HD or DTS-MA. That will be my next purchase.

There is only one thing that I'm disconcerted with the player has the Pioneer Theater Sync feature. Which works great with my Panasonic amp. But for some reason the DVD remote will only control the volume for the TV not the amp. So I still have to use a second remote for volume on my Sony amp. This makes no sense to me.

We watched Top Gun, Eraser, Terminator, and the Bucket List on BD so far. Batman Begins wasjaw dropping from an audio and picture quality issue. My wife said she had no clue that a DVD could look that good.

I also watched Twister on a SD DVD and that look pretty good too.

The DVD player has a slot in the back for a USB drive and it also has a ethernet port so it can connect to the net for firmware updates and to access bonus features.

The next generation model due out in the fall it will cost more but it decodes all the audio inside the player.

Overall two day in I'm happy with the purchase and I'm happy I waited for this model.
