The S350 won't decode HD audio and the S360 has no eject button on the remote. The S360 is probably faster at loading dics too and is a newer model. I would avoid Play as there are delays on deliveries at present. Elsewhere the players are often similarly priced which makes the S360 the obvious choice.
 
Hi,

I am looking at the following two Blu-ray players and cannot see what extra features the S360 has for the increased price. The only difference I can see is that one has a blue front and one has a black front.

Thanks for your help. Which one would you go for?

Try Richer Sounds and you may get a 350 that is MR for DVD. I love mine.
 
The fact that the 350 won't itself decode DTS-Master soundtracks doesn't matter if - like most people - you bitstream the HD signal for your amp to decode.
It's worth noting that at least one participant in the recent "shoot-off" which featured on this messageboard preferred the 350 to any of the other top flight BD players on test.
 
I quite like the S350. I think it is quite a good up-scaler. Shouldn't the S360 be at least as good though?
 
Thanks for your help guys.

I went for the S360 from Richer Sounds for only £149.99
 
I picked up the S350 for a bargainous £100 last week. Fortunately I have an Onkyo 507 for HD audio duties so am sorted :)

Just glad it's a quality player for a damn good price, been stellar so far :cool:
