SONY S1700 Multi System All Region CodeFree Blu Ray Disc DVD Player - PAL/NTSC - USB - 110-240V 50/60Hz - 6 feet HDMI Cable Included

The vendor (the Bombay guys, not Amazon) takes regular BR/DVD players and hacks them to work in other zones. It worked for one of our European DVDs but not for one of our European BRs. I called Sony customer service and they explained that it was a hacked unit.....in fact, they do not make a multi-zone player at all. The only solution they recommended was to have 2 players, one for USA content and one for European, but the European player would not be covered under a USA warranty. Thank you Amazon for taking this back and dealing with it.

Very simple. Package arrived, opened the box, set-up/plugged-in the unit, attempted to power ON with main power on/off button, FAILED to power on. Next tried the remote, FAILED to power on. Spent the next hour trying to figure it out, FAILED to determine cause. Applied for RETURN label.

Sadly no luck with these. First one worked perfectly for a week then it quit. Returned and got another. That one was DOA. Thankful for Amazon returns. Went with a different brand

Never worked right. I was traveling for work when I received it and once I got home and plugged it in, the power would reset after a few moments of playing a Bluray. Tried a region-free domestic DVD and it had the same behavior.

My S1700 just arrived. It played a PAL DVD and other Blue Rays or DVDs from my collection. HOWEVER, it does not connect to the internet. I tried several cables. It does not work, and, it is NOT WIRELESS!! WHY would any respectable manufacturer put out an old fashioned LAN wired machine? Its insane. Im reconsidering not keeping my PRIME account. This one does not seem to be a legitimate SONY product. HOW COULD AMAZON DO THIS to their trusting customers?

CT Home Owner is right. Does not deserve the Sony logo. Remote sux. Player oes not respond. Every command produces 2-3 split-second images of things (like aspect ratio) that are already defined. At best this is SLOPPY. Charging WAY too much money 3rd rate crap that theyve slapped the Sony logo on. This device could have been tweaked to eliminate these glitches but nobody bothered. Why?
