Great image, sound problems? January 9, 2009
The image is awesome, however I am having volume problems with some Blu Ray Disks. I have to crank my volume all the way up for some disks. I don't have surround sound or home theatre, I am only using the HDTV surround sound. I don't know if that is the issue and I have no idea how to download the new patches. I guess I have to read the manual. Other than Volume is a great piece of equipment.
 AWESOME January 9, 2009

My Kids says "It's like being at the movies"
Picture and sound is AWESOME on this player
I will buy again from this seller
Quiet, Sleek, with an easy hook-up January 9, 2009
I'm fortunate enough to have two Blu-Ray players, this Sony and the Samsung BD-P1500 1080p Blu-ray Player, both players at the bottom tier of their brand. While I see a reason to get the next step up for Samsung (since it streams Netflix), I believe this Sony will be just as useful as its more expensive cousin. After all, except for true videophiles, most people won't use the advanced features of their players.
Like most Blu-Ray players, the Sony S350 takes several seconds to start up, then load the disc before playing, usually about 15-20 seconds for each process. The Samsung, while slightly faster (by 5 seconds or so), is a lot noisier; if you have your player outside of a cabinet, you might prefer the Sony for its quiet operation. The player can connect to your TV using HDMI, HDMI to DVI (with audio cables), or component cables -- none of these cables are included. (For a sturdy, long HDMI cable, see Belkin PureAV AV22300-12 12-Foot HDMI-to-HDMI Audio Video Cable.)There's a LAN port for network/internet access and a USB flash drive external memory slot for use with BD-Live and BonusView, available on compatible Blu-Ray discs.
You can play CDs or regular DVDs, just as you can with ordinary DVD players. Hook up the player to your receiver/home theater for extraordinary in-theater sound. If you own a Sony high-def television, you can use Bravia Sync to easily connect and control the Blu-Ray player, but most popular brands can be synced with the remote to control both the player and the television.
Blu-Ray high definition is extraordinary; the difference between it and regular DVDs is as obvious as that between DVDs and VHS tapes. If you don't have a high definition set (LCD, plasma, rear projection), then this player won't be worth the money since the difference will be negligible.

Just what I expected January 9, 2009
A BD player was on my wish list for some time. I was just waiting for the prices for reputable brands to fall. Then Amazon offered this at a VERY good price just before Christmas, so I jumped. It helped that it had the Sony name on it and that PC Magazine rated it the best player in its class. It has done everything that I expected, providing a great picture. The one nit that I have to pick regards the recommendation to attach a thumb drive to take advantage of extended BD features. That memory should be built in. Moreover, the USB plug provided for such a drive is too small for the brand that I bought, which meant that I had to find an cable extender for it. Sony apparently wants you to buy their drive, since it will fit into the slot.
happy Family January 9, 2009
The Sony Blue-Ray player has been a fantastic addition to our family's entertainment choice and has rejuvenated our old collection of DVD's.
They are much clearer on the Blue-Ray Player.
