Sony BDP-S1700
Crutchfield customer from Bethesda, MD on 2/23/2021
I got this to view some old blue ray and DVD movies while I am stuck at home. The service was excellent. I was able to assemble it easily. However, I then had to drive 20 miles to get a cable to connect it to the TV. I wish that the description had indicated that a cable was required.

Great Customer Service
Crutchfield customer from Farmville, VA on 7/13/2020
I had three other Sony Blu-Ray players and believed that my BDP-S6500 had problems as I could not get HDMI audio to my receiver/amp. Since I didn't need Wi-Fi streaming for the theater system, I purchased the BDP-S1700 to replace the S6500. When I installed it, same problem, so I ordered a replacement receiver/amp which was back ordered for several weeks. I called Crutchfield Tech Support to see if I had missed something and determined that I had reset the receiver earlier and missed one of the custom settings in the amp section. As soon as I entered the setting, all worked perfectly again. Crutchfield cancelled the replacement amp order and offered to take back the BDP-S1700. I decided to keep it to upgrade an older player and can't say enough good about Crutchfield and their care for their customers.
Pros: GREAT customer service.
Cons: Not a one!

Crutchfield customer from Gresham, SC on 6/9/2020
Was looking for a small, inexpensive Blu-Ray player for our bedroom. Read the reviews on this Sony BDP-S1700 and decided to order one. Install was simple enough and in no time I was watching a movie. Unit runs very quiet and smooth. DVD ran flawlessly and remote was simple and easy to use. I have not connected this to my internet, so I cannot speak to that feature of the unit. Overall, I am very satisfied with the function, options and value of this product.

Crutchfield customer from Midlothian, VA on 5/17/2020
The jury is still out but so far I'll give it 4 stars; Setup was easy and the picture is very good. However it froze a couple of days ago, it wouldn't respond to the remote or the manual on/off switch. I unplugged it for 15 seconds, plugged it back in and it's been good since. I'll update this if it goes wonkey again.
Pros: Set up, Picture quality, ease of use.
Cons: Unsure of reliability.

Nice design. Easy setup.
Gary from Coarsegold, CA on 12/9/2018
Great design. Compact, uncluttered, mat black. DVD loads onto a table that slides in/out, which seems more reliable than players that have a slot for loading. Remote was very easy to program to operate my Samsung TV, and gives me control of volume, input source, and on/off. The remote is also compatible with most major brand TV's. Also easy to program unit to access my Pandora, Hulu, Netflix accounts. Purchased the Eagles Farewell 1 concert Blu-Ray DVD to christen this new unit, and found the images to be nicely detailed with sharp contrasts and beautiful coloring. Sound quality is superb with great detail and dynamic range, but does become overwhelmed when trying to reproduce heavily textured sounds, like brass harmonies. I'm sending the audio signal through the HDMI cable to my Samsung TV, which converts it to analog for my NAD/PSB stereo. Perhaps connecting the DVD player's digital audio output directly to an audio system would eliminate the very minor flaw. I researched this purchase fairly thoroughly, and because my TV is 1080p, and my internet router sits in my entertainment cabinet and can be connected by an ethernet cable, I found this unit to be ideal, and I also trust the Sony trademark and so expected great performance and longevity.
Pros: Compact. Uncluttered design. Easy remote and internet setup. Excellent picture and audio. Quick response to remote commands.
Cons: None.

Richard E. from Sun City Center, FL on 11/14/2018
It's inexpensive and very easy to operate. Very compact and light, so by all means don't be rough with it! I don't have a newer model TV that would necessitate a more expensive feature-laden DVD player, so this player suits my needs perfectly. And, per usual, I got it in two days after ordering it!
Pros: easy to use and it works well thus far. If you have an older TV, this is all you really need.
Cons: The build doesn't feel very solid, so handle it carefully. If you have a new TV, I doubt you would be totally with it.

Crutchfield customer from Ukiah, CA on 11/11/2018
Does the job just fine. Only comment really is that the unit is so light (and small) that if you press the button to shut off or open/close the disc tray the unit moves from the finger pressure. They need to put a bit more weight on the thing to keep it from shifting. Otherwise no complaints so far, though was horrified at all the personal info/potential data you sign over to Sony if you "agree" to their conditions in setup. I rejected all that as don't need the hoopla online stuff - just wanted a DVD player. **update 12/11/2018** Since writing my initial review above I have realized that the clicking and processing sounds (like when Windows does a big update on my computer) I was hearing at quiet moments in movies were from this player! On mute it is really easy to determine that it is almost continually making electronic clicks and chirps - or however one would describe that - and that it is not just my player from Crutchfield. I got one from local Walmart to see if mine was faulty and it did the exact same thing! So it is part of the player design platform and very hard to imagine how Sony let such a cheapo thing through, as this hardware base is used on a huge number of their players which look identical except for more features, etc. And no, it is not a 'mechanical' issue, as on Pause it is just a quiet hum with usual disc spinning sound alone . I am returning it and have bought a cheaper Sony version of different design (DVP-SR510H) but has no networking - which I don't need. It is totally silent even when put movie sound on mute. So heads up to Sony! How on earth could you design a player so poorly??? One star for that reason.

Small profile - big performance
Nick from Topeka, KS on 4/8/2018
Small profile, big performance. It does exactly what I want it to do - play DVDs. The fact that it takes up much less shelf space than my previous DVD player is a plus. The price was really good - and free shipping? What more could one ask for. This is a no frills product - although it does have the netflix button on it. Since I have that and others on my tv, I didn't need one of the players with all the bells and whistles. The good people at Crutchfield didn't try to sell me something I didn't need.
Pros: Performance, price, size
Cons: No HDMI cable.

Great DVD player. I had an old dvd with the 5 disc turntable and it was always a pain to deal with plus it took up a lot of space. This new model is so much easier to use and it's so much smaller it doesn't take up much space at all. We had just bought a sony 49" smart tv bought it wouldn't take the coaxial cables from the old dvd player. No more switching back inputs on the front of the tv every time we want to use the dvd It automatically switches. Life is good!!

Great Inexpensive No-Frills Player
Krikor from Pleasant Ridge, MI on 12/29/2017
Needed an inexpensive, no-frills Blu-Ray/DVD player and this fit the bill perfectly. Our older Samsung had an utterly useless remote control in terms of range/angle (granted the unit is behind a perforated metal door) and an excruciatingly slow start up time. This Sony unit starts up quick and the remote is responsive and fast from anywhere in the room at just about any angle... I can even point it at the ceiling and it still works! Also, the tiny half-width size of the player is nice. We can use the other half of the shelf for the current in-rotation kids movies that are constantly cycling through our home. The only negative, not even worth knocking a star off, is the wall-wart power supply. Works fine on our powerstrip, but may block some outlets on other strips. Couldn't be more pleased!
Pros: Fast startup Responsive remote Space-saving half-width size
Cons: Wall-wart power supply may block some outlets Wish there was an even less expensive non-streaming version

Bright Detailed Picture
Bruce from FL on 12/4/2017
Nice little unit with excellent Blu Ray picture. The only problems I have are that my older DVDs play very grainy - I'm guessing this is due to upsampling and is inherent to all bluray players. So, it's the old DVD player for that portion of my disc library. And, every once in awhile my screen goes black during playback. But other than that, great bang for the back.
Pros: Beautiful colors, easy to use.
Cons: Older DVDs are very grainy

Crutchfield customer from Grand Junction, CO on 1/24/2017
For the money, you can't beat this player. Super easy to set up, super easy to use, picture is awesome, you just can't beat it, plus it's a Sony. The other A+ factor is I bought it from Crutchfield and it was on sale. You guys are the best, I mean it. Your customer service and support is amazing. Other companies should look at how you do things, you are the gold standard. Thanks!

Works great
Jason M from Clermont, FL on 8/2/2016
This is a very good bluray player and streaming media device. The strongest positive statement is that I have bought another one for each TV in the house.
Pros: Small footprint, rapid device boot-up, good range of streaming channels, easy controls.
Cons: The streaming channels load slower than Roku or AppleTV.

Good Buy
Squirrel Whisper from Atlanta, GA on 7/7/2016
Considering the low price you can't beat this. I have DVD players purchased years ago that cost much more and were larger than a bread box. Recommend. Unless you want to impress visitors with your wealth. The first thing you need to do is update the software (Sony calls it software rather than firmware).
Pros: Small, Tiny. Cheap. All kinds of network apps. If you open most audio gear it's mostly empty space. This has tightly spaced electronics. You'd better not lose the remote because it's the only way to communicate with it.
Cons: The USB port is only an input. My DAC accepts USB input. So a tad disappointed. There are two ways to get audio out, HDMI and coax digital. I use HDMI for the video but coax for the audio. The default setting for the audio is "AUTO" which works for the network but with a DVD (Blu Ray or Standard) has a hissing sound like a reticulated python with its tail stuck in a garbage disposal. Had to switch audio from AUTO to PCM. The power comes from a brick which is so wide it takes up more than 2 slots

Sony BDP-S1700
J Mike from Spokane, WA on 6/4/2016
The player works fine, simple to hook up to T.V. and receiver. I keep purchasing Sony for quality electronics. The remote is small for my large hands other than that it's easy to use. I would recomend this product to friends and family.
Pros: Easy to hook up, ease of use, remote ease of use.
Cons: remote is small in my hands otherwise it's fine.

GREAT FOR THE MONEY
Tony from Brooklyn, NY on 5/22/2016
I use this Blu Ray player strictly for playing Blu Ray and DVD's.. If you do want to use the "Smart" features like Netflix etc, you must use an Ethernet Cable since this play does not have WiFi. .I have a smart TV and a Roku and therefore have no use for those features. So, after TONS of research, I finally narrowed my search to this unit and the lowest priced LG unit which only plays discs and has no "Smart" features. Between the two, this unit has a better reliability rating so I chose this one. I only received it about about two weeks ago so I cannot attest to longevity. At this time, I've played many Blu Ray and DVD disks and they play perfectly. Great if you just want a low priced Blu Ray player with no WiFi and want it to just play your DVD's and Blu Ray disks. I prefer separate components so have have this low priced player and a Roku for streaming my Netflix, Amazon and other video. .Great player at a great price!
Pros: Plays DVD's, CD's and Blu Ray disks perfectly
Cons: No Wifi. You must use an Ethernet cable for "Smart" features such as Netflix and Amazon streaming etc.
