New high-resolution CD/Blu-ray player launched by Sony

Sony has revealed details of its new BDP-S7200 SA-CD/Blu-ray player – one of the Japanese tech giant's newly-launched products to come with high-resolution audio playback capabilities.

Due to start appearing on European shelves next month, Sony says the BDP-S7200 is designed to combine "peerless pictures with stunning sound" from both disc content and online services.

It's also described as Sony's first player that can handle Super Audio CD and high-resolution audio files, while the Digital Music Enhancer will improve the quality of MP3 files and low-res videos.

The BDP-S7200 offers 4K upscaling to improve picture quality on a 4K TV, with online video quality able to be enhanced using IP Content Noise Reduction Pro powered by a dual core processor.
