Sony Two home theater bundles with Blu-ray built-in will accompany the stand-alone players. The BDV-E500W draws on Sony’s in-house S-AIR audio standard to pipe basic surround sound to as many as 10 matching receivers within the format’s 164-foot range; the BDV-E300 goes without but can take an adapter to get the same features.
On wired connections, either supports the same 7.1-channel output as the S360/S560 and also get a proprietary Digital Media Port to add peripherals like iPod or Walkman docks as well as Bluetooth to stream audio from phones. Both theater systems come pre-packaged with 5.1-channel speaker arrays and will ship in June; the E300 starts off at $600 where the E500W’s wireless lifts the price to $800.
