]]> A Hollywood Cinema Experience
This model features an HCX Processor for Ultra HD Blu-ray packed with original imaging technologies for stunning picture quality. The precise colours and HDR reproduction that form the essential elements of Ultra HD are the basis of high-defifinition images. They bring you a whole new viewing experience that you’ve never had before.

Experience stunning 4K pictures

Multi HDR Support – Panasonic Ultra HD Blu-ray Players support multiple HDR formats. They newly support HDR playback of HDR10+™ dynamic metadata, the next-generation standard. And they are compatible with Dolby Vison™. The synergistic effect achieved with the original high-quality image technologies enables even more precise image expression.

HDR Content with Even Greater

HDR Optimiser – Panasonic’s original image processing technologies achieve HDR images with higher definition. Tone mapping is used to adjust the brightness level of the content. And even HDR images from ordinary HDR10 and TV footage, which do not support special new formats like HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, provide optimal playback.

Theatre-level quality

THX®-certified Images and Sounds – The THX®-certified model reproduces the finely nuanced colours and rich, detailed images that the film creator intended, and achieves lifelike surround sound. You can watch movies at home in comparable quality that you enjoy at cinema.

Reduce vibration for pursuing premium sound quality

Chassis with High Rigidity and Lower Position for the Centre of Gravity – A newly developed drive base with a 3-dimensional, thick steel plate fixes the optical disc drive to the centre of the 2-layer chassis to reduce vibration and noise during disc rotation. And thick aluminium is used on the front and side panels. This raises the rigidity of the chassis, and reduces vibration.

Clear sound with minimal noise

AC/DC Conversion Circuit – By separating the power for the audio D/A converter and analogue output circuit at their origin, the noise effects are reduced. In addition, soft switching control lowers the noise of the power supply itself.

Carefully selected audio parts

Special Circuit Board for Analogue Output – The analogue circuits for 2 channel and 7.1 channel output are mounted onto special glass-epoxy circuit boards. Together with the use of quality components, such as low-noise operational amplifiers and audio grade electrolytic capacitors, a totally balanced signal transmission is achieved by using differential circuits all the way from the D/A converter output to the XLR output terminal.

Versatile, high quality audio output terminals

2 Channel (XLR/ RCA) and 7.1 Channel Output Terminals – The 2 channel and 7.1 channel output terminals are also separated. Moreover, the 2 channel output is equipped with a balanced XLR output terminal in addition to the RCA terminal.

The Stylish Design with a High-quality Presence

Reference Design – Thick aluminium treated with alumite is used for the front and side panels. This helps to reduce vibration and increase chassis rigidity to support high sound quality while providing a design that is ideally suited to a reference class model.

From now on, online content will also be 4K

Compatible with 4K VOD – Because 4K internet video distribution is now supported by content such as NETFLIX, Prime Video and YouTube, a wide variety of high-quality content is at your fingertips. The high-definition internet video signals are processed by Panasonic’s original 4K High-Precision Chroma Processor to achieve crisp, beautiful images.
