I need a player to attach to my sony led & logitech z906.

want to play xvid,mkv,mp4 with downloaded subtitles. would be great if it can upscale dvd to hd.

it would be better to use your pc to play videos. no format issues and upgradable also. you can also connect 5.1 analogue out from your pc to z906. else u may need dts/dd compatible receiver for decoding surround audio. so anytime, my vote goes for pc.

oohh..okie..logitech z906 will decode dd/dts tracks and has optical input. So you can go for a media player with optical out.

what's your budget according to which can refer some media player.

SONY DVP-SR700HP
it got upscaling. doesnt play hd files and mkv. doesnt sure about subtitle. but sony, i think, is trustworthy.

philips one is alluring as it is 5k
