 tries to be to much March 10, 2010
Bradford D. Buckley (Saint Louis, MO, US)
This player tries to be to much and succeeds at being mediocre. There are $129 players that have the same picture quality, and although it plays many audio formats I found the sound to be mediocre at best.

This player works much better than the last so-called 1080 up converter. On top of that it livend up my 5.1 surround. Even my 15 month old who has watched the same dvd serveral times said the word wooooo. I would have to agree. Very happy.

I was an early adopter of Blu Ray, buying one of the first Sony models. While I loved the picture and sound quality, I found myself of late constantly upgrading the firmware to keep pace with more advanced releases. Plus, with two impatient children, I found the load times intolerable--sometimes upward of 10 minutes to fully load a disc. After reading several glowing professional and customer reviews of the Oppo, I decided to research it further. The price point had me a little nervous, but I finally relented and purchase the deck. And I must say, I couldn't be happier. Picture and sound quality is superb, the construction is solid and sleek, and the cosmetics fit my system well. The unit is vented and dissipates heat well, and most importantly...the LOAD TIMES ARE INCREDIBLE. Even with the most feature-laden discs, load times are typically under one minute. The larger internal memory is an improvement over my old Sony, as it stores more content and speeds up replaying of the same title. Additionally, this deck appears to be able to play any disc in my library without any firmware problems. The only CON is that some of the deck's features are unable to be controlled by my Harmony One universal remote. But most are set-and-forget features anyway.
Yes, it costs more than most Blu Ray players today, but in this case you truly get what you pay for. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Obviously I am happy with this Blu-Ray player. The optical clarity, design, speed, audio, HDMI interface are all incredible. I am running this Oppo player thru a Denon AVR-2807 (7.1 Klipsch) and Sony Pearl VPL-VW50 projector and the movies and audio are staggering. I had an upconverting Denon DVD player before but now I can run at 1080P and I am astounded by the improvement with Blu-Ray movies as well as the upconverted DVD movies. Bravo Oppo!! I need to look at what else you produce for future purchases. Zero complaints...
