Is OPPO losing it's way?

Their new 'upgrade' Sonica DAC is using the new ESS ES9038PRO Sabre Dac; while the new
UHD player UDP-203 uses the new AKM (4458). What gives? Why not just use the best for both-especially with the promise of UHD?

"when did oppo ever make a $1200 universal sound as good as a $4k sacd player ?lol"

When it was modded by ModWright or Exemplar Audio and cost $3700 - $5000. Then watch out.

Great AC quality and isolation will improve all equally.
