best 3d dvd player review image
Critter122
on January 11th, i am planning on getting Piranha 3D, but after the terrible 3d quality of My Bloody Valentine 3D, i was considering a blu ray player.
1. if i don't have a 3d tv, can i still get a 3d blu ray player to make the 3d look better than regular dvd?
2. if i just get a regular blu ray player, will the 3d still be a lot better than regular dvd 3d?
3. is blu ray worth it?
Answer
"1. if i don't have a 3d tv, can i still get a 3d blu ray player to make the 3d look better than regular dvd?"
No. A 2D TV is only capable of displaying older, anaglyph 3D, which uses color tinted cardboard glasses and is available on both DVD and Blu-ray.
If you want to see the true stereoscopic 3D effect that some movies on Blu-ray use (called 3D Blu-ray), then you need a 3D TV, 3D Blu-ray player, and electronically shuttered 3D eyeglasses.
You should know that "My Bloody Valentine" was released in two forms of 3D, anaglyph (DVD and Blu-ray) and stereoscopic (3D Blu-ray). The stereoscopic version that was recently released will have a better 3D effect (when viewed on a true 3D system) than the anaglyph version , but was still poorly reviewed when compared to other 3D Blu-ray titles: http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/My-Bloody-Valentine-3D-Blu-ray/16128/#Review .
"2. if i just get a regular blu ray player, will the 3d still be a lot better than regular dvd 3d?"
Not really, the picture may look a little sharper, but that's about it.
"3. is blu ray worth it?"
It is if you have an HDTV that is 42" or larger.

I'm tight with money right now and I am going to buy one or the other, I've never had a Soundbar before but neither have I had a 3d TV, what should I get first?!
Answer
First off you will need a tv and then a sound bar. I would not waste my money on a 3D technology that is not supported by software. Keep in mind, to watch in 3D you will need the following: 3D HDTV, 3D blu ray disc player, 3D blu ray disc movie (at this time there are only 180 titles available in 3D and they are mainly animated movies from Disney) and 3D glasses for each person. The price is higher for any 3D product. Vizio is a bargain price tv that is not very good in quality or reliability. Sony is not know for making very good sound system and the quality and reliability have dropped over the years. I never had any Sony product that have lasted over 3 years. The first DVD player model 7000 and 7700 the following year and paid over $1,100 each. The first HDTV by Sony and paid $6,400. Go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on all products for a home theater. If you read yahoo questions all the time, you will notice that 95% of tv problems comes from LCD or LED tv and 95% of those are the bargain price tv. Keep in mind, you get what you pay for. Hope this will help you out.
