Title: Pioneer BDP-150
Post by: DTNS on Oct 29, 2012 at 09:37 PM
what do you guys think of this blu-ray player?:
http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/products/42/84/222/BDP-150-K/page.html (http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/products/42/84/222/BDP-150-K/page.html)

it's currently available in various HT shops for around 8-9k. if ever I get one, I plan to use it for playing various media like audio cds, dvds, and blu-ray discs.

what do you guys think?  ::)   it seems like a better value than a standalone cd player or dvd player.  :D

what features does the 450 have that the 150 doesn't? anyway, I think the BDP-150 is a good value! :)

a lot actually, but bdp-150 is also good enough upgrade from a dvd player
Title: Re: Pioneer BDP-150
Post by: Tavus on Nov 02, 2012 at 10:56 AM
both are made in china by TCL.
I find the usb support of the 150 much better. There are less slow downs on the 150 on large mkv files
but the 140 has no cinavia.

bdp 3110 is like the 150. the bdp 3110 has a track menu list.
I find them decent blu ray player.

Last year, when I was researching on BD players, I read that Pioneer BDPs are not made by Pioneer anymore but by Sharp.  So I ended up buying a Panasonic instead.  Ngayon pala TCL na?

yup there made in china by TCL. So far I'm please naman with my bdp140 players performance.

Btw yung bdp 3110 is finally P4990. Which is good, cause now we have a cheap blu ray player under 5k.

I haven't tested it. but it being a Pioneer, I'm pretty sure its good. just be warned though, that this blu-ray player is region-locked.  :-\

Has anyone bought the new Pioneer BD players?
 
Sabi sa forums, PQ is good, but build is low-quality.  Startup is noisy.  Drive is sometimes noisy during playback.
 
 

I haven't tested it. but it being a Pioneer, I'm pretty sure its good.

It's not the same Pioneer anymore, so it's hard to say whether the traditional quality of Pioneer's optical disc players is still there.

I had a BDP-320 before, problematic since new and nasira within weeks (mechanical noise and erratic stalling). Nakailangbalik sa service kesyo naayos na daw then paggamit ko sa bahay hindi pa. Pabalikbalik sa Automatic Centre until the servicer decided to replace the entire drive assembly. Umayos naman after that.

Thanks for the input sir Stagea.   
 
I called SnS this afternoon:
 
Anong player ang available? --- Pioneer lang sir, 150 (P8,500) & 3110 (P4,990).  450 wala pa.
Mahina na ang benta ng BD players? --- Mahina na sir, puro media players ang gusto nila.   
Merong Panasonic BD player? --- Matagal nang wala.
Walang stock o hindi na talaga nag release ang Panny Phil.?  -- Hindi na talaga nag release, matagal na.
 
 
P4,990 na lang ang Pio BD player.  Nakakaduda ang quality, parang CDR King Special na lang siguro ...  :D
 
Panny Phil. wala nang BD. Panny Phil. ba naman, asa ka pa.  :P   ... puro wala? ... ang dami namang wala sa Panny Phil... kailan magsasara?  :D 
 
Mahina na raw talaga ang BD players.  Laos na nga yata...  :(

I had an LG BD550 din before. Mabilis siya magload kesa sa Cambridge Audio and Pioneer BDPs ko. Di naman ako nagkaproblema, medyo oversaturated lang yung colors and lesser ang noise reduction. I think Conan has the same model.

Check out Sony stores din, Atty. I think they carry the BDP-S190 and the BDP-S590 locally.
Title: Re: Pioneer BDP-150
Post by: barrister on Dec 16, 2012 at 12:16 AM
They say the Sony 590 has slow load times. 
 
Pioneer 150 and 450 have fast load times. 
 
They say Pio 150 has poor build quality --- noisy, with quirky behavior. 
 
As for the Pio 450, I think I'm going to like the Marvell Qdeo chip, and build quality might be better than the 150.  I've been waiting for comments for the 450, but it looks like I'll be waiting for Godot, considering the dearth of interest in BD players these days.

I think it's P3990.00 same with SM and Anson's. Nakasale kasi. Seems okay naman madali naread un R1 disc. Although di ko makita un cinavia effect since usually halfway through the movie raw lalabas un note sa screen na wala nang audio.

Just saw this now, yup I also have the LG BD-550. No complaints about the unit though it hardly gets used due to my media player.

@DTNS if you will use a Bluray player to play audio CD's it will sound far off from a stand-alone quality CD player.

I have the 3110. Seriously considered the 150 back then because of how elegant it looks. But since i dont need the network connectivity or the 3d functionality, i got the 3110. It works very well as a bd player and its quite fast in reading my bluray discs. I actually dont see any lag using this. Havent tried the usb port though, since I have a separate media player for that purpose.

I am looking at pio 450 only because of the two hdmi outputs..I don't want to upgrade my avr..so I am looking for a bluray player that can pass the video directly to the tv and the audio directly to the avr..

I saw a pio 450 box at a window and instantly saw the two hdmi outs..sony s790 is the other choice..1st bd player purchase..I am an NMT user..but since I upgraded to a good display hoping a bd player will be a nice addition

Sir, does your avr have an optical in? Why not use that instead for audio then use hdmi for video so your choices wont be that limited.

I tested out the bdp 450 a couple times this past month. I compared it with a sony 350. Pq for me looks excellent, but I tweaked the settings on the player. I haven't tried the out of the box settings yet. The great pq is more noticeable when I pause it. During playback you might not notice it that much but on some movies that I watched recently like Batman (keaton) and Jurrasic park 3, I went wow!! Ganda man.  ;D I have to test it out more (compare also to ps3) bec. baka sa mind ko lang yun wow ko hehehe..

 For dvd, I think it has no match vs my oppo 980 and my toshiba a35. I have to check again. The oppo 980 is one hell of a player.  ;)

Hi sir, i got it at ansons in trinoma for 14,990 at 24 months to pay. At first i dont want to get it, but when the salesman offered me the 24 months to pay, i grabbed it right away hehe. I thought this is a good price/deal na bec compared to the oppo 103, the pioneer is readily available here, no risk and warranty hassle like when you buy things abroad. The only thing i dont like is the remote control. The are also no analog outs if you need this. Btw, One more positive i forgot to mention is the build of this player is quite solid.
