I have tried some Uncle Ho BD25s and even in my peasent system, the picture quality wasn't as impressive as the original. I tested out Wanted and Hart's War.

Hart's War was pretty decent but Wanted PQ looked like it had some sort of noise reduction done on it. Neva tried the ori so my comments arent really conclusive.

Oh ya, I could access the BD-Live features for it as well but I cant remember for which movie it was

Haha... didnt know trusted review also use this bamboo scene track 11, from House of Flying Daggers to test biggrin.gif

extract from Trusted Reviews


Good though it is, the Sony certainly isn't the last word in Blu-ray picture quality. More expensive players like the Panasonic DMP-BD80 or the Denon DVD-3800BD increase the wow factor further with even better detail retrieval, more effective noise reduction and punchier blacks, but in this price range there aren't many better.
Attached Image

This deck certainly punches above its weight with the Silicon Optix HQV Blu-ray disc - apart from some strobing in the corners of the Video Resolution test, it doesn't put a foot wrong. Diagonal edges on the Jaggies tests are smooth as a baby's bum and rotate without judder, while the HD colour bars are bleed-free and the panning shot across the empty stadium looks sharp and composed.

The deck also turns in a strong performance with DVDs. The bamboo fight scene in House of Flying Daggers (chapter 11) is masterfully reproduced, with no jaggies on the long bamboo poles, gorgeous organic-looking greens, smooth motion tracking and plenty of depth. DVD torture tests are also ably handled, particularly when it comes to jaggie suppression and detail rendering.

yup, sony's philosophy is geared towards Sight & Sound the same for Pioneer

just heard yesterday... dont know how far is it true,

if you demo "Columbia Piitures" stuff with Sony BD & LCD, it seems other brands ( at more or less the same price ) cant match the PQ of the sony

anyone sifu's can clarify or its just rumours....

so basic sony BDP and basic sony LCD will be better than Panny Plasma (which is cheap also) + Panny BDP ?
*
thats what my fren said, when he audition with the same disc, and confirmed by other salesrep too, as they found it unbelievable biggrin.gif

no doubt, my fren settled on plasma for some reasons, he owns a 50" pamnny plasma, BD30, kuro 50 and now pending delivery of the latest kuro 60" and LX-91.....

his suggestion too is always pair the same brands, sony BD + LCD or Panny BD + LCD as it will give the best PQ combination smile.gif

Sorry moomos, I believe this is not true. I think it is marketing gimmick.

How about the BD player makers that do not make displays (ie, Denon, Oppo), so in essence their do not have the optimal picture quality.

There are some advantages but it is not in terms of PQ...
*
i'm quite secptical tho, unless i test it myself, not salesman talk,

its my fren (the buyer himself) who told me, he said he saw the demo on Sony, then take the same BD-Disc... demo on other brands, cant get the same PQ effect, at first the other sales rep don believe, but at last they agree also, then maybe they say columbia pictures stuff play back on sony range gives better PQ

like the s360 and BD60 if match back their own LCD maybe Pioneer 120 cant beat them,
maybe maybe all 3 BD players use a reference Samsung or LG LCD/Plasma... pioneer will be the winner on PQ

like bro anfield said, my fren could have misled the situation smile.gif
well .... but something worth pondering

I suspect if there is any difference it is due mainly to the display TV (different setting or model quality). Or is it that your friend tested with same TV but different BD player?
*
my fren himself is a fanatic of audio and video biggrin.gif

but his preference is on plasma, so he got the pana 50" plasma ( dont know which model ... seems whole front piece is glass panel ) ordered ...took 6mths to arrive via singapore, then kuro 50 and now like i said ordered the 60"kuro & LX91, he even showed me the receipt from Harvey Norman

well maybe setting also can affect, but the salesrep really calibrated to their best.

talking about calibration, this afternoon i dropped by SenQ in Ipoh parade, all their 8 panasonic 50"/42"Plasma/ 37"LCD was i think out of calibration except for one 37"LCD for which i consider good only

i ask the salesman, that time... Fast & Furious 4 on demo

Q&A

me >>)) are you playing DVD or BD-Disk?
Salesman>>)) BD-dsik....
me >>)) are you sure?
SM >>)) ya.... good le...
me >>)) NO
SM >>)) oh you are watching Plasma, its like that one, you see that one (pointing to the 37"LCD) this very clear and got depth one

a megastore giant like SenQ being handled unprofessionally, somemore if its calibration, then Panasonic, is also a piss off, by not sending their team to calibrate to perfection.

another instance, ipoh Parade also now at Sony Center

me >>)) how come you all dont demo BD materials, do you all have BD player for sale??
SM >>)) ya, showed me that inner corner, S350 at RM1299.00
me >>)) wou 1299 ah, i thiought got discount, penang selling for 599 only
SM >>)) oh ya, was 599 now 699 adi
me >>)) S350 old model still have meh??? i thought S360
SM >>)) ya still have we selling oni S350
me >>)) wats the difference between S360 and S350, is the S360 Better???
SM >>)) no la, there are the same la

i stopped asking ady, look at him and smiled then walk off ( wat type of sales knowledge, these sales ppl have now adays)))

thats y forum's are created rclxms.gif
soree for the long winded text.... thousand apologies biggrin.gif

no favouiitsm on this, was advise to " that if you got a panny just pair with BD60 biggrin.gif

for me some how or rather, my anthology only ok....

when panasonic design (or R&D) their BD Player their reference is panny Plasma/LCD, so whatever colours,depth,shaprness,contrast, brightness they will tweak to perfection on their own proprietry LCD/Plasma .... am i correct to say so... i dont think the engineers care to think how it should look on an LG/Sony/Samsung Display

its the same for R&D dept for Sony, Samsung LG etc

so theoritically matching brands will perform better but there are exceptions too, correct for makes of OPPO,
hmm... wonder wats Oppo's reference DISPLAY biggrin.gif

biggrin.gif biggrin.gif like i say there are always exeptions, ( this one not my fren say..one)

if panny is good for PLasma/LCD BD only use those.....
if Sony is good for LCD & BD only use those......
if pioneer is good for Plasma/BD/AV amp... only use those....

if a manufacturer like sony/pana doesnt produce good speakers, i believe any branded entry level speakers will kick their "butts" out rite??? biggrin.gif

aha..... but HDMI cables can use rclxms.gif

ok easy way, spend some petrol, drive to nearest AV shop or electrical, at a glance see how many ppl inside, go tapau nasi lemak, teh tarik, then ask them do you a favour set to 220 in and 110V out

hehe.... the way out for solution spend some $$ instead of losing your BD60
