The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other AV receivers and amplifiers, soundbars, home theater speakers, subwoofers, surround sound systems and Blu-ray players we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.

Overview

At $30.99 and 1.3 lb, the Metricsquare fits the mold of a take-it-or-leave-it budget disc player. HDMI is the only listed output, so you will need a TV with an HDMI input. The 1080p resolution handles standard Blu-ray and DVD upscaling, and there is nothing else to note because the specs stop there.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Metricsquare a trustworthy brand?

Metricsquare does not have the established history of Sony, LG, or Samsung in the disc player space. With only 12 buyer reviews available, there is limited independent data to assess quality or customer support. If brand confidence matters to you, a more established name with hundreds of reviews is a safer bet.

What can I actually connect this player to?

The only listed connectivity is HDMI, so it is designed for televisions or AV receivers with an available HDMI port. There is no listed RCA analog output, meaning older TVs without HDMI inputs are not compatible based on the published specs.
