Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray player in-depth review ?

Posted by AbeCollins on June 27, 2009 at 22:28:31:
Has anyone done a thorough evaluation of the new Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray player?

In addition to overall performance including ease of use, load times, and features, I am especially interested in how this player sounds on regular CDs and SACDs. This is one of the very few Blu-ray players on the market that also plays SACDs so I'd be curious to know if this thing can perform as my main Blu-ray player and provide respectable 2-channel audio performance.

Although it's a "new" product, it's been in beta testing for quite some time and it appears that Oppo has finally pulled the trigger and released it for sale.

Is it ready for prime time?
