"Great build and spec for the cash; capable of engrossing pictures and emotive audio." What Hi-Fi Sound & Vision magazine.

Thanks to the continuous march of progress, you can now get a top-brand Blu-ray player with networking connectivity for less than ever before. With Panasonic's top quality componentry, the DMP-BD75 gives a colourful and convincing picture quality. Unlike some other budget Blu-ray players, the colours are natural rather than overblown and displayed with great detail and texture. Being a Blu-ray player you can also use the DMP-BD75 to playback your DVD discs. Upscaled to 1080p resolution, your DVDs take on a new lease of life with a crisper more engaging picture quality. When it comes to playing back discs, the DMP-DB75 plays all the latest formats including DivX, DivX HD and MKV.

What sets this Panasonic Blu-ray apart from previous budget models is the comprehensive networking and connection opportunities. Connect to your home network by DLNA and you can stream music, video and pictures from your NAS (Network Attached Storage) drive or PC. Added to this is a USB 2.0 interface that's ideal for connecting digital media devices.

For the 2011 Panasonic Blu-ray range there's also a wide range of further improvements. Start-up time is faster than ever and there's a new onscreen display that's clearer and easier to follow. The physical dimensions are also smaller. With a height of just 35mm, the DMP-BD75 fits the tightest of shelves and can discreetly be tucked out of the way. Furthermore, the reduced depth (179mm) makes it possible to place the player on bookshelves that wouldn't have accepted older players.

For a compact, well-connected Blu-ray player with all the performance you'd expect of this top brand, the Panasonic DMP-BD75 has few equals.
