    Pioneer Elite Blu Ray players.

    What's up everyone?
    Anyone go check out or buy one of the new Elite Blu ray players? They look interesting , I feel a little to late but IF they are built by Pioneer to the older standards I might want to pick one up.

    I have used Pioneer Elite players in the past and was very pleased with it. I gave up on Pioneer. There are better units on the market. I have switched to Oppo BDP-105, they offer factory updates over the internet, and sound audiophile quality great. Good luck on your choice.

      I picked up a second BD back a couple of years ago I guess, Pioneer Elite. Hardly Elite standards of old, but it loads faster, which is good. I have underutilized it, due to time spent on other things, or watching movies on HBO/Showtime etc... I am finally able to use my player for 3D, it seemed to do pretty good wearing the glasses for my Samsung 4K TV. I need to watch another movie on it soon, if I can get the glasses turned on. It's a whole "thing" lol. I finally figured it out. But my Lexicon is down right now, movies in channel is ok, but not quite as dynamic.

      I will probably wait for 4K BD if that happens...

        Pioneer are not keeping up with the other manufacturers and are overpriced IMO. I'd look elsewhere.

          Wish I could afford a top Oppo model. I'm disappointed actually, that they stopped making BD changers. I'd use one, but one hasn't been made for maybe 7 years.

          At this point, though, my next disc player purchase will be a 4k player.

            New Pioneer Elite FD62 Blu Ray Player
            by Lex
            Today, I received my new Pioneer Elite FD62 blu Ray player. The build quality is in fact, very average, as honestly I expected for a retail $400.00 player. It's very lightweight and has a small footprint. Image quality seems pretty good out of the box, I have not done any adjustments. I have watched Knight and Day partially on projector, and partially on my 59" plasma. Both seemed reasonably good. There was some pixelization visible on both displays with this player. Some of this could be...

            Has anyone been able to get a new Panasonic or Pioneer blu-ray player
            by Dave999
            I have been trying to get either of the second generation Panasonic or Pioneer blu-ray players and they are pretty difficult to get a hold of. Best Buy had a few, but seem all sold out. All other places that I checked seem out? Also, a few places advertise that they have the new Pioneer, but I have...

            by mike c
            i went by the local rotel distributor today ... he said that the rotel dvd players were "clearer" than pioneer dvd players.

            is this true?

            Pioneer Elite Blu-Ray Player BDP-05FD - Blu-Ray side worth Fixing?
            by selfilm
            Hello Everyone,
            I have a Pioneer Elite BDP-05FD Blu Ray player and the Blu-Ray portion of it is not working. It still plays audio CDs and regular DVDs. The reason why I love this machine is that it has RCA audio outs for my system so I know I am getting the best possible audio (meaning I don't...
