The Sony BDP-S760 Blu-ray player puts sound and picture quality at the forefront. It also benefits from built-in Wi-Fi and a surround sound headphone jack, two features that set it apart from the pack.
And that's where the S760 suffers in its offering. We love the quality of the picture you get from Blu-ray and the full audio support: buy the S760 because you want a great picture and sound, not for any of its peripheral offerings.
The BDP-S760 is by far the most impressive Sony Blu-ray player we’ve encountered. Its picture and sound performance is up there with the best of them, the operating system is a dream to use and the feature list is a vast improvement on previous Sony players, with built-in Wi-Fi being the obvious highlight.
But is it good enough to topple the LG B390? Not quite. The LG’s feature list is vastly superior, allowing you to stream a wider array of movie and music formats over your network and not just JPEGs, plus it throws in YouTube access for good measure. What’s more the Sony is slower to load discs, lacks built in BD Live memory, only plays JPEG from USB sticks and to top it all off it’s more expensive. Looks like Sony will have to settle for second best…
