Denon DVD-A1UD blu-ray player launched

If you’re looking for a sexy Blu-Ray player you can’t go far wrong with the Denon DVD-A1UD. However it’s currently only available in Japan and it’ll also make a sizable dent in your wallet if it does venture to your neck of the woods. But given Denon’s reputation and the following stats an investment in the DVD-A1UD may well be worth it.

* SD / SDHC card slot
* DivX support
* HDMI 1.3 x 2, S-video, composite outputs
* optical digital audio, coaxial digital audio outputs
* 480/60i, 480/60p, 720/60p, 1080/60i, 1080/60p, 1080/24p res output
* DTS-HD Master Audio / Dolby TrueHD
* 7.1-channel analog outputs
* Profile 2.0 update to come
* Handles BD-ROM, BD-R/RE, DVD Audio, DVD Video, DVD-R/RW, SACD, CD, CD-R/RW format discs
* Handles WMA/MP3 audio files
* 434 × 410 × 151mm

But the final kicker is the price tag at 540,000 yen, around US$6,000. Ouch! But as they say, you get what you pay for and I’m sure this unit will keep many a videophile happy for a long time to come.
