The Toshiba BDX3000 is the flagship and most expensive Blu-ray Disc Player in the Toshiba Blu-ray lineup. So it is not surprising that it is filled with very good features such as Online Streaming Media Services, handles many media files, integrated Wi-Fi and 7.1 channel analog audio outputs. While being the most expensive in the Toshiba lineup, the player is still affordable, with a price range online of $200.00 to $250.00. The key feature of the BDX3000 is its ability to playback Full HD 3D Blu-ray Discs. With the help of a 3D Television, 3D glasses and a High Speed HDMI cable, you can play 3D Blu-ray Discs to see amazing 1080p video resolution for each eye. If you do not have these items, do not worry, the BDX3000 has no problem handling standard 2D Blu-ray Discs and DVDs. VIDEO QUALITY: When connecting the BDX3000 you can use the following video connections: HDMI, Component Outputs and Composite Outputs. To get the best image when playing back Blu-ray discs (1080p/24/60 fps. resolution), a HDMI connection is needed. Through the HDMI connection the player can up-scale standard DVDs to near 1080p levels. You will not get the same crisp, clear, detailing you would find on Blu-rays, but your DVDs will never look better. Tests done by various experts reveal the BDX300 should give you with very good picture quality that has great detail, contrast and black levels when playing Blu-ray Discs. AUDIO QUALITY: The audio connections for the BDX3000 are the HDMI, Analog Audio Outputs (both 2.0 and 7.1) and Digital Optical Output. The BDX3000 has internal audio decoding for the latest high resolution audio formats (Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio) and can transfer these formats in their native bitstream form. And those who have a non-HDMI A/V receiver do not have to upgrade because the BDX3000 comes equipped with 7.1 Analog Audio Outputs. While 3D may be the next trend in Home Entertainment, the BDX3000 has not forgotten to include other great features such as Online Streaming Media Services. Being able to stream movies, music and photos from the comfort of your living room is becoming more prevalent. The BDX3000 offers access to Pandora®, BLOCKBUSTER on Demand®, Netflix® and VUDU®. Unfortunately, the exclusion of YouTube might not appeal to some people. Of course a connection to the internet is required to access any online streaming content. There is an Ethernet Port and a built-in Wi-Fi for this purpose. Once connected, you can access BD-Live functions found on certain Blu-ray movies. The BDX3000 does not have any built-in memory storage. So when using the BD-Live function you will need a USB or SD Card memory device for storage. The SD Card can also handle the playback of MP3, WMA, JPEG and AVCHD files. THE PROS: The Toshiba BDX3000 Blu-ray Disc Player has 1080p/24 playback on all Blu-ray discs.
