I use a Sony 550. �268 inc. multi-region DVD. Includes 7.1 analogue outputs (which the 350 doesn't) and decodes all hi-rez formats.

It is excellent on Bluray, not as good as a 596 on DVD-V (seems slightly grainy) and surprisingly good on CD. And it loads quickly. Build quality is not battleship but at that price it is a disposable commodity in the context of a full Meridian system should something better come along.
