"the Primare played BD movies with spectacular picture quality...upscaled DVDs looked fabulous too...the Primare does indeed sound gloriously luxurious...stereo SACD playback was stellar...Prmare's BD32 can be considered an audiophile bargain in the world of high-end components...a worthy universal source for any high-end system."
Heimkino, Germany, January 2012 issue:
The image processing is exceptionally good. No matter what came from the drive or via USB or eSATA, the Primare did not slip up: the image on the Panasonic plasma satisfied in all three dimensions. Now it was time to lend a close ear to the sound; quickly the Friedemann hybrid disc (CD and SACD) was inserted and immediately played by the BD32 in a rarely heard brilliance. More discs followed; whether live concert recordings on Blu-ray or music DVDs, the Primare universal player sounded like a pure music specialist.
The Primare BD32 is a high quality true multi-format/multi-channel Blu-ray, DVD, CD, SACD, DVD-A and media player, equipped with dual HDMI 1.4 outputs (3D). It benefits from a proprietary Primare audio stage, multiple custom-engineered power supplies, a superior user interface and added input and control functions. The BD32 is capable of decoding all native audio formats including DSD, Dolby True HD and DTS Master audio. It has a fully-balanced stereo (XLR) output, an unbalanced stereo RCA output, and an 8-channel unbalanced RCA (7.1 multi-channel) output.
