DVD player upgrade......

I recently have a Sony DVP-777ES 400 disc changer for my 5.1 home theater and have not yet upgraded to 1080P. Would say a Denon 3930CI or 5910CI be the best upgrade for the money???? I am running an Onkyo Pro SC-885 pre processor, Parasound HCA 2205A power amp(220x5), full Paradigm Signature S1's, C1, ADP's all in piano black, a SVS PB-13Ultra subwoofer(piano black). I am running all Synergistic Research Tesla Accelerator bi-wired speaker wire, 3-T2's, T3, Precision AC, and Precision Reference RCA interconnects from Pre to amp, Quattro and QLS9 for my mpc active sheilding.I feel that the Sony being so old & outdated that it may be a weak link in my system. I am looking for more depth, dynamics, detail & soundstage to my movies. I am a 65% movie buff and 35% music. Any help would be appreciated!!!! THX

Thx Kenobi....I appreciate the recommendation. I will research the Oppo BDP 83......I was hoping to pick up a Pioneer BDP 09 used online. What do you think of that player??

Hi Bacardi,

Without first hand experience but based on what I have gathered, the Pioneer BDP 09 should be a step up from the Oppo unit and rightfully so for the price. If you can get one for a nice price, more power to you. There's currently a new one for $1650 on Agon.

For the price though, I don't think there's anything out there that can touch the Oppo. And it's not that painful to let it go when the time comes for a replacement in the future. Their service and support is top-notch as well.
