Panasonic touts the fact that the player "can theoretically reproduce up to nearly 4400 billion colors" although that's not something that would mean anything, since any more than 32 million colors is undetectable by human vision!
Yeah, but if the number's higher, it's got to be better.

Bonus points for being the first "BluRay Ready" receiver to market too....all them there other receivers with 7.1 analog inputs and HDMI are now obsolete because they're not BluRay ready.

And the world's first "DVD-Audio ready speakers"...wicked...
