Which one has all the features you want? Panna is getting good marks, but as for sound, they will all be indistinguishable.

The Sony x800 is nice and does dvda but lacks Dolby vision. The Sony x700 has Dolby vision but lacks dvd audio support

biggest deal to me is sound and the ability to enjoy surround sound. The quality of video seems to be getting so good (regardless of manufacture) that my ageing eyes cant tell much of a difference.
