Impressed with LG BU40N so far.

Post by uhdcanuck » Thu Nov 13, 2025 5:52 pm

Just got myself a LG BU40N and tested it out. Holy cow. Color me impressed. This thing breezed through all the problematic discs I had (Aliens, Abyss... most Cameron discs and the brand new Sound of Music 4k disc) without even breaking a sweat. My old LG WH16NS60 always had a bit of problem with 100gb discs, so this is a very nice change indeed. Wow, if BU40N is this good, how good is Pioneer BDR-US04? I also have a Verbatim 48333 is on its way here from the UK. I was a bit concerned to hear all the new 48333 now has LG BU40N in it instead of Pioneer BU40N, but not really worried anymore. I guess I'll have two BU40Ns to work with. Not the worst. Although it'd still be nice that if the new Verbatim turned out to be a Pioneer, but either way, I am very happy with LG BU40n. Didn't expect it to work this good I guess!
