Hey guys, last month I picked up a factory fresh LG BH200 after they released the firmware update allowing it to BITSTREAM every high rez audio codec, including DTS-HD Master Audio. They also gave it the capability to DECODE everything but DTS-HD MA.
I was exploring the possibility of replacing both my PS3 and Toshiba XA2 with it. Turns out I am absolutely tied to my PS3, and can't justify the cost of having two Blu-Ray players and two HD-DVD players!
The REAL reason I am selling? Found a deal on a 1080p/24hz Projector that I just CAN'T PASS UP! :D
This is a killer player, a great "stand alone" Blu-Ray player that also happens to play HD-DVDs! I think it is now Profile 1.1, upgradeable via firmware to 2.0. Already has the Ethernet port and USB ports, etc.
It is extremely attractive, especially when lit up, throws a very nice picture, and as I said above, handles all the High Rez audio now.
In addition, all firmware updates and driver updates can be done over ethernet now, in addition to over USB or CD. Very nice. (It does have the most current firmware and driver...)
The player is as new, I have played a handful of movies through it, and it will come in ALL the factory packaging, with all factory accessories, and will ship double boxed and insured.
Selling for $375 SHIPPED anywhere in the lower 48.
Unfortunately I got burned on a shipping deal to Canada before(buyer didn't pay custom fees... they ended up hitting me for them), so no shipping to Canada at this point.
