Reception
editSound & Vision called the UB9000 "unequalled by any other video disc player on the market."[5] What Hi-Fi? said: "If you own a surround system that can make the most of the Panasonic DP-UB9000’s many talents, you won’t be disappointed."[7] TechRadar said that "after Oppo’s collapse, the Panasonic DP-UB9000 is a more than adequate replacement."[3] Comparing it to the mid-range UB820 and the entry-level UB154, TechRadar said UB9000 has the best picture quality and the most effective upscaling of the three.[8] They also named it the best premium 4K Blu-ray player.[9] TechHive praised the image and build quality but called the out-of-the box audio playback "overly clinical".[10]
