Any good moderately priced bluray players?


Hi everybody,

I'm in the market for a moderately priced bluray player. I don't need 3D buy I do want a player that has streaming services like Netflix and Pandora.

It will be used for movies in the family room with my main two channel system. I don't really need multi channel analog outputs since the main system is two channel only.
Good picture quality and good contruction are the main criteria.

I'm sure people will recommend Oppo. The question is are there any good quality players between the big box store $79 players and Oppo's $500 player? What's available around $250-300, and are they much better than entry level?

Thanks in advance

I have the Panny BDT-210 in my bedroom system, and it has been great. The picture is great into my 50" plasma, and since I use the HDMI connection into my Yamaha receiver, the sound would be the same with any BD player. One really cool thing about this Panny is that my router is way on the other side of the house, and I am streaming Amazon Prime movies and TV with no problem. I think I paid about $130 for it.

If you do want to play SACD or DVD-Audio, you will have to pay more to get a Oppo or Denon.
