I have the S52, the previous version. I love it. Got it FREE! with the purchase of my LCoS tv. The picture is outstanding and audio is top notch via optical since my reciever doesn’t have HDMI.

The sound was a bonus.

Picture quality on my Toshiba 64" DLP is stunning !

The sound is 3D and surround ; it is also stunning.

True Home Theater.

The Matrix Reloaded becomes alive.

But you must use the HDMI for full up-converting and sound enhancement.

Glad you like the Panasonic S53 - so I hate to say that as good as you think it is, at its very best day it’s only a so-so performer. Much better regular up-converting players are available, such as the Oppo or other Panasonic, Denon, and Toshiba players...and the S53 is completely outclassed by any of the HD DVD players.

I use HDMI to send it to the TV and then optical to the receiver.
