Constructed with the highest-grade components and electronic circuitry, the Pioneer BDP-09FD THX-certified Blu-ray Disc Player surely can put a dent on your wallet. The device is certainly no slouch in the weight department, coming in at a whopping 30 lbs.

The enclosure is mostly made from solid steel and aluminum, which should be a given because of the price tag. The BDP-09FD is also BD-Live ready, has a rear ethernet jack, and features the company’s KURO linking technology.

“Pioneer recognizes THX as the industry benchmark for rigorous, unbiased testing and endorsement of high performance home theater products,” said Russ Johnston, executive vice president of home entertainment business solutions group at Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. “As true A/V specialists, our engineers have worked relentlessly to craft a full line of products that rival the movie theater experience, which not only meet Pioneer’s strict principles for faithful reproduction of content, but now feature THX certification.”

I hardly believe that the $2,200 MSRP for a BDP-09FD will make Blu-ray movies look and sound a lot better. Without a doubt, this would definitely look great in tandem with Pioneer’s current top-of-the-line A/V receivers.
