QualityUsers report outstanding build quality for the DMP-BD60K. Panasonic has a reputation for quality, and this device lives up to that reputation. Disc operation is smooth and almost totally silent, and audio and video quality is stellar. The DMP-BD60K provides a true HD viewing experience. The 7.1 channel surround sound output, when coupled with a surround system, provides the best home theater audio experience available. FeaturesThis would be 5 stars except for the fact that some of the competition in this price range offers extra features like built-in WiFi, Netflix streaming, and onboard memory. The lack of Netflix streaming is offset by the fact that Panasonic has announced that Amazon Video On Demand in now available for the DMP-BD60K. If you don't need the wireless connectivity, however, the DMP-BD60K still has an excellent feature set. SummaryThe DMP-BD60K is an excellent Blu-ray player available at a very reasonable price. And while it doesn't have all of the features offered by some of the competition, the build quality and performance is better than most. If you're ready to take the step up to a true HD disc player, the DMP-BD60K makes an excellent choice. Pros
