Very similar in style and comfort, but the BD-C7900 is equipped with two HDMI outputs. This additional feature can be very useful for those who enjoy 3D entertainment at home with the least number of updates for their home theater center.

It can also be a high-resolution audio formats transmitted in their native bitstream form via HDMI for your A / V receiver to decode.
