Oppo Blu-Ray Player Jul 31, 2010
The Oppo Blu-Ray BDP 83 play is amazing. It produces excellent audio and video. It complements all the other components of my home theater.

This is the good stuff Jul 27, 2010
I wanted a Blu-Ray player that I could also use as a CD player with a good audio system. Based on magazine and user reviews I went for the Oppo BDP-83; it's pricey but quality is never cheap.
This is the best piece of equipment I've bought in ages. You know it's a class act from the minute you open the box: the packing is snug and doesn't crumble, and it's easy to unpack (not so much praise for Amazon's packing: they put the Oppo box in a larger box with loose paper filler, allowing the Oppo box to slide around; no damage, though).
The manual (I always read them): It's written by a literate English-speaker and printed as a full-sized book,in a large, bold font on good paper. It has lots of diagrams and explains everything clearly. There are countless combinations of equipment you could use the player with, but you can easily find the part of the manual that you need. Oppo provides an HDMI cable, too.
The setup: You hardly need the manual, because when you turn it on a setup wizard figures things out and provides appropriate defaults for outputs, video and sound settings. Two minutes and you're ready to play your disks.
Performance: Blu-Ray disks load in a few seconds and the picture and sound are beautiful. The player upscales DVD's, which look as good as you could wish -- not as good as Blu-Ray, of course. As a CD player it produces superb sound (and I'm really fussy), and it plays some disks that don't play on other machines, presumably because of damage or defects in the disks. I have only one SACD but that sounds great too, though I'm not sure the SACD format adds much for my purposes.
Updates: I didn't connect it to the internet but I downloaded the latest firmware and installed it by flash drive. No fuss, no problems.
Missing features: Note that it won't play 3-D video or stream Netflix, if those things are important to you.
I am delighted with the BDP-83. If you agree that quality matters, go for it.

The roumors are true! Fab Blu! Jul 26, 2010
Finally, an all-in-one disc player that lives up to the hype!
This machine loads super fast, can play just about every type of file (actually, i think it misses the mark on ape, ogg, flac files... but i haven't had the opportunity to check), has fantastic quality control, and is what every blu ray player Should be. This has to set the benchmark for standard.
The obvious missing wireless internet connection and 3d capability aren't missed too much. The company that makes them even suggests a wireless box to use to make wifi possible. I was hesitant to buy this over the Sony BDP-S570 because of the 3d issue; but I am so glad I bought it after all. It plays dvd-audio so beautifully!
I've found it to be quite fantastic, and well worth the cost. (the $400-$550 range)

Simple pleasure Jul 23, 2010
I recently purchased the Oppo BDP 83 Blu-ray player. It was incredibly easy to hook up. The picture quality is fantastic. The movies pop right up. The additional features offer a great expansion to my media entertainment.

Exceeded expectations Jul 22, 2010
I had high expectations considering the stellar reviews. My expectations were exceeded without a doubt. I'm most impressed with the sound quality. My CDs sound absolutely great. This is a great product and, while it is not cheap, it is also a great value.

Consumer Reports Says: Buy HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (July 2010) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2009 and June 2010. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its July 2010 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com came closest.
