what is all the hype about, are they really that good? and if so , why would anybody buy a thousand dollar player? has anyone used one with powered speakers? if so , which ones? thanks doing research on a small system to do video and music in a 10 by 10 room...
Flavor of the decade maybe... I have one of oppos newest, KILLER! Especially sound and Bluray. Huge waste of money on any other digital, of course I run a DAC, but still under 700 bucks and its better than a 7000.00 boat anchor!
I think Bobrock has been hiding under one for several years. Oppo's Blu/SACD/DVD/CD players, starting with the '83, are probably the best-looking and -sounding multidisc players out there, and besides that, they're inexpensive. I sure love my '83SE, and my friend loves his (my fomer) '83. .
I dont have an ayre palyer...I have a Thule audio DVA 120 universal. I got it from the last distributor when Thule went under. For the record, cd playback on it is great. I am only looking around for better video performance as it does not have hdmi inputs. I have come across few dvd players that are good at cd playback. Linn was the last one I demo that was really great for music as well as video. I still have not seen one of these oppo players anywhere and I dont buy what I can not demo...nobody should. Very Dumb idea. Right now I am leaning towards a used Linn or cambridge audio (new).
