The BDZ-V9 is a Blu-ray disc recorder capable of intact storing of high precision Hi-Vision video. The outward design of the BDZ-V9 represents transparency, high precision, and the complete dimension of Hi-Vision video. The front panel uses tinted glass in blue for a profound expression of quality and transparency. The top is entirely covered by high-quality aluminum. The unit is constructed in such a way that the top surface has no seams, the screws are invisible from any angle whatsoever. The design approach invokes material quality and artisanship, and has a sophisticated touch.
