Sharp Aquos BDHP20U reviewed by Charlene Ai

October 13, 2008



I bought my Sharp Aquos BDHP20U from Ebay.com. This is my first BD player. I was waiting for the format war to end once it did I read a review www.buyblurayplayers.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.

The loading of the disc is pretty quick From what I read it is much faster then last models. I was upgrading coming from a Denon 5 disc up converting DVD player and that thing was slow so I'm very satisfied. The video 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 not satisfied with the player has the Sony Theater Sync feature. Which works great with my Sony 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 Band of Brothers, Twister, 300, and Batman Begins on BD so far. Batman Begins wasgreat from an audio and picture quality issue. My wife said she had no clue that a DVD could look that good.

I also watched 2001 - A Space Odyssey on a SD DVD and that look pretty good too.

With this player this has all changed for the better. Load time have vastly improved and it is a Profile 2.0 player. Picture quality is stunning.

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

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