This universal Blu-ray player is a great way to spend £350 This puts brands like Pioneer in a slightly awkward situation. It's never been a true mass-market brand, but at the same time obviously doesn't see any commercial reason to issue a successor to its £2,000 BDP-LX91. Hence it's now focusing on the mid-range 
– the BDP-LX55 tested here wants to grab 
a slice of the action below the £500 Oppos and Denons of the world, but above the impulse-buy spinners from many of its Japanese countrymen.Read more

Een degelijke Blu-ray-speler haal je tegenwoordig al voor een uitermate zacht prijsje in huis. Dat er op audiovlak echter nog ruimte is voor verbetering is bij goedkope toestellen, bewijst Pioneer met deze BDP-LX55.Read more

If you're looking to make the leap from a budget Blu-ray player, the Pioneer BDP-LX58 should definitely be on your hitlist...Read more
Quite possibly the finest hi-def disc player in the world right now... Much like Thor's Uru hammer, only the home cinema worthy will be able to lift Pioneer's mighty BDP-LX88 Blu-ray player. Tipping the scales at an enormous 13.4kg, it boasts more armour than Brad Pitt’s tank, and is heavier than many AV receivers.Read more
