Oppo Ceasing production

I called Oppo yesterday afternoon.  They said that they have enough money in the bank to either develop new product or provide support/warranty on existing products for the next few years; they can't do both.  Do to slower sales and higher cost of parts, they didn't see a future in new products.  They don't think that they can generate enough sales going forward to keep the company going.  I think they did the right/honorable thing and decided to put customer satisfaction first.

I myself, have owned/own three Oppo products.  I've never had a problem with any of them.  I've never even had a reason to call them for anything; the products just worked!  I'm shocked and saddened by their announcement.  At least they'll walk off into the sunset with their heads held high.

I may just have to have all my sacd’s transferred to digital drive. I have a 103 that is still running strong. 

Maybe a good option when the 203s run out

I'm glad I ordered my Oppo from Amazon on 4/2/18, because the very next day, Amazon listed the 205 as unavailable.  I was thinking my order was going to be cancelled, but it appears to have been shipped.  Hope it gets here in one piece, because I doubt I'll be able to get a replacement if it doesn't.

Not really tbh
It may look good on paper which was exactly the reason I bought one, and then sold it within 3 months!
Best description I can come up with is totally sterile on audio cds, bluray and dvd video playback was fine of course but you can get that with a $60 player nowadays.
