Remember how your curiosity level shot through the roof when Pioneer abruptly
discontinued the BDP-LX70A Blu-ray player in the UK? We're willing to bet this is why. Announced over on Pioneer's European website, we're being treated to three fresh faces -- the Profile 2.0-compliant BDP-LX91, Designer BDP-LX08 and BDP-LX71 -- along with one familiar face (the
BDP-51FD). All of the new units will feature 1080p24 support, HDMI 12-Bit Deep Color support, KURO LINK, DTS-HD Master Audio / Dolby True HD compatibility and professional-quality Wolfson Digital Audio Converters (DACs). As for pricing and availability other than Europe, your guess is as good as ours, but we are told to expect the BDP-LX71 in September, the BDP-51FD / BDP-LX08 in October and the BDP-LX91 "later on in the winter."

Goodbye Gran, it was nice to know you. I'm sure you'll come to terms with being sold for a BR player some day.
Love,
Your Grandson.

Would it really have been hard to post the price, this isn't a US only blog?
Will it make my plasma as black as Kuros is what I want to know!
nope
Where's the good old anodized black aluminium? Keep the Piano paint to well.... Grand Piano's.
Seem like quality player.
I personally like the piano black, this has a bezel of an elite but doesnt say elite =(
It plays a disc, why is it bigger than most receivers?
