About the McIntosh MVP881 BR Universal Blu-ray Player

The McIntosh MVP881 BR is a single source component offering universal compatibility and world-class performance from virtually all today’s most advanced video and audio disc formats, also supporting BD-Live Blu-ray Profile 2.0 web-enabled features. It reflects all of McIntosh’s leading-edge craftsmanship, attention to detail and unmatched performance, and sets a new reference standard in ultimate-quality source components.

In addition to its advanced Blu-ray capabilities, the MVP881 BR Universal Audio/Video Player excels at playing SACD and DVD Audio discs as well as standard CDs and DVDs. The elegantly designed rock-solid “dreadnaught style” component features custom fabricated steel and aluminum casework with unique, compartmentalized sub structures that inhibit resonance while shielding sensitive audio circuits. Most notably, the unit features a supremely durable all-metal disc mechanism. Set in a heavy, damped base, this quiet-running mechanism is exceptionally accurate, and also features a cast-aluminum disc tray. For maximum flexibility in convenience and installation, the unit also features an SD card reader, an RS232C interface and an Ethernet connection for BD-Live content and future software updates.

Are you kidding me? This is a promotion? A measly $25 discount off a $300 Blu-ray set for buying an $8,000 deck?

This would be news worth reading if the promotion was "Free Neil Young Archives vol.1" with purchase of MVP881BR. We both know the economics of the McIntosh player would support that. $25 off is no motive at all. What happened to marketing chops in consumer electronics companies?

@213phil, I was thinking the same thing as I was reading the article. I could buy the collection, an oppo blue ray player, and save a lot of money.

I completely agree. I love McIntosh equipment and Neil, however I'm thinking Oppo BDP-83SE and a trip to a certain music blog... for about 7K less with similar results.

That represents a 0.3%...that's .003 x $8K. Boy the folks at McIntosh are downright philanthropic ain't they?

So much music...so little time.

ah so!

So much music...so little time.
