Oppo's gone, now what dvd/bluray to buy (Oppo BDP-105d)

I have the Oppo 105d which is a great player and all, but it's not 4k.  In my quick research, it's hard to find a standout favorite or best to compete with it.  

Anyone have any thoughts on what other players that are more readily available that might be as good or close to as good?

I really don't care for a good DAC or network streaming capability.

LPM= Linear Power Module

IEC= the plug on the back of the component that the power cord plugs into

Sorry I don’t recall which ones I bought. Could not find them in Purchase history. Search for the power supply that has a bunch of how to photos

you can use a computer to rip your discs to hard drive with mkv - hdmi out to tv for video - download madvr video renderer for free whcih will give you a much better picture than the above mentioned players - and usb out for audio to the usb dac of your choice - much better audio video quality for less money - I've A/b'd with several players including the oppo and Panasonic and they did not come close to playing files from my hard drive -

Never heard of madvr so I googled it and it's not quite as you say. It'll beat a cheap blu ray player and better an OPPO ( which are a few years past their prime) with a dedicated rig and special cards that run hot, etc.

The forums all seem like they want it all on the cheap like gamers of past and those that wanted music for free. Always looking for a work around from paying for it. I'd like to see real testing procedures and results done by a professional lab before going that route.

Most of those in the forums seem to like it, with caveats, and a few don't like it at all.

All the best,

I don't know of a single player that can play DVD, CD, and stream youtube and tidal all in one box. If there is such a thing let me know.

@falconquest   I kinda thought most dvd players now days were "smart" players and did all that.
Plus, I don't want a smart player.  I get my tv, netflix, hulu, etc from my tv.
