Best blue ray player on market?

Does the OP want a Universal Player?  Sony and Yamaha are the only game in town, I believe.  For Blu Ray only, LG and Samsung

Reavon from France is coming out in April. The front looks like the Oppo 203. The basic 100 model will be about $1000 and the top of the line the 200 will run about $2000. Should be interesting.

For DVD and Blu-ray playback we're still using the OPPO UDP-203. For 4K Blu-ray we use a Panasonic DP-UB820 because of the HDR tone-mapping feature.

There was another thread I posted on that was similar (not sure if it's the same person).  It's going to be very hard to beat (or even meet) the Oppo 205.  The best I can suggest is the Panasonic UDP-9000 ($995) combined with the "Complete MOD" from the Oppomod website (another $990).  At that point, you are seriously competing with the Oppo 205. 

At that point it might be worth it to you if you can sell the oppo for around $3k.  However, I have seen them go on ebay lately for as low as $1800-2200.
