(Update 05-11-07): We originally reported that the presence of HDMI 1.3 might mean that the BD-P1200 can pass the bitstream of Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD-Master soundtracks to forthcoming compatible receivers, but according to Samsung it cannot. The BD-P1200 has no support for those highest-resolution next-gen audio formats, so audiophiles should look at either the Panasonic DMP-BD10A or the PlayStation 3 for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution soundtrack support.

Probably not a good choice. While it says it can't pass bitstream, there is a chance that it can pass PCM for those tracks and still deliver lossless sound. But I can't be sure about that. It does have that Reon chip though, I think.
