Perhaps someone should tell Mark Levinson that the LG player doesn't support multi-channel Dolby TrueHD or DTS HD Master Audio with its current firmware. Not exactly the right hardware to be "the heart of a 7.1 channel system."
The LG BH200 has been available for a few weeks now. Users are reporting only 2-channel output on Dolby TrueHD tracks. Unless the Mark Levinson version has firmware fixes we don't know about, it'll be stunted from the getgo. In fact LG removed a firmware update from its website only a few days ago. All I can say is caveat emptor.

The product hasn't been released yet. Wouldn't you assume that it would have new firmware once it's released?
