Samsung Launches Blu Ray HT system

After Samsung’s BD-P1000 (the world’s first Blu-ray player) and the second-generation BD-P1200, Samsung Electronics expands its lineup of high-definition optical disc players, with the launch of the BD-P1400, BD-P2400 and BD-UP5000, as well as the first Blu-ray Home Theater system.

The HT-BD2 7.1 channel HD receiver speaker system provides richer and powerful sound with its Dolby TrueHD and dts-HD Master Audio format support. A fully powered subwoofer, accentuated by four towers, a center channel, and two satellite rear speakers, gives the HT-BD2 1,100 Watts of total output power to keep movie and audio fans satisfied - all from a single component system that makes operating any function easy.

For a truly cinematic home theater viewing experience, the HT-BD2’s Blu-ray player offers full compatibility with 24 movie frames per second playback. As most movies are filmed at 24 frames per second, the HT-BD2 will be able to playback movies in their native format, significantly reducing unwanted artifacts. Setting the player’s Movie Frame (24Fs) feature to ON allows the consumer to adjust the HDMI 1.3 output to 24 frames per second for a crisp, theater-like experience. The HT-BD2 also supports 60Fs for enhanced compatibility with many of today’s HDTVs.
