RE: Unfortunately, OPPO's specs are a bit misleading (intentionally?)...

Posted by AbeCollins on June 29, 2009 at 19:13:57:
While I appreciate your concerns about the BDP-83 not being Region / Zone free as a past owner might expect from Oppo, I'm new to Oppo and my needs are different.

I'm mainly looking for a "Universal" BD player that also has excellent audio quality for CDs and SACDs. I know of only one other BD player that can handle SACD and that would be the $4500 unit from Denon. There may be others that I'm not aware of but for $499 I'm willing to give Oppo a try.... or some others in this price range if any others exist.
