Pioneer Elite BDP-95FD Blu-ray Disc Player

 

This Blu-ray player's built-in media server doesn't justify its high price.

DLNA-compliant media server

Overpriced ; Slow ; physically heavy

The home media server is the BDP-95FD's one perk over competing models (only Sony's PlayStation 3 offers a media server, too). But you pay a huge premium for this unit over its competition

Pioneer Elite BDP-95FD Blu-ray DVD Player – The Rest of the Story

 

The Elite BDP-95FD is Pioneer's latest Blu-ray DVD player. You have read the Secrets DVD Player Benchmark™ review, and now here is the rest of the story (Blu-ray performance and audio performance).

I’m of mixed opinion on the Elite BDF-95FD Blu-ray player. There is no doubt that Pioneer hit it out of the park when it comes to video performance for standard Blu-ray playback on this one. The inclusion of bitstream support of all of the audio...

Pioneer Elite BDP-95FD Blu-ray DVD Player

 

The Elite BDP-95FD is Pioneer's latest Blu-ray DVD player. How does it perform with SD discs? Read our review to find out.

Yet again, I find myself recommending that end users look elsewhere for SD DVD playback. I really hope at some point we’ll see better DVD playback performance across the board from these new generation players since there is still a lot more content on...

The $999 Pioneer BDP-95FD is a Profile 1.0 Blu-ray player, which means it does not have the secondary audio and video decoders needed for picture-in-picture playback, and it does not support BD-Live Web functionality. The player's back panel features...

This machines is heavy at 4.6 kilos.

The home media server is the BDP-95FD's one perk over competing models (only Sony's PlayStation 3 offers a media server, too). But you pay a huge premium for this unit over its competition.
