Oppo Nuforce BDP-93NE

I'm at the 40 hr mark on the NXE board. This player just relaxes you into the music. Ever notice how music can seem almost slower and than it hits you that is just easy and natural in its flow? Relaxing? This player does that. Shelby Lynn is sooo good. Patricia Barber is better than ever I rmembered her. Isn't it amazing how favourite pieces of music you know inside out can still reveal nuances in the vocals that you hadn't heard before? This player does soft very, very well....not an easy thing. The music emerges from a very quiet background. I think that is why I hear more soft clues..but this is paired with superb dynamic range....quite a delight all in all. Will make a final observation at the 50 hour point after which I'm just going to continue to enjoy the music. This NXE board is seriously musical...cheers, lloyd

After a very busy week I've finally had a chance to start listening to the NXE again. One of my nephews set down with me to listen to Sade's Soldier of Love. an album we both love. For a moent he said nothing. I though something was wrong. "WHOW," was all he managed. "That is real bass...it's really deep," he said. He listened some more. Everthing is so clear, exact and easy to hear and see locations," Drums and instruments project out into the room like never before," he added. Than he just listened and listened until finally he had to go home. He had liked the NE board but was simply awed by the NXE board. I also feel the same. It's just plain superior....How high up the rung it goes I don't think really matters to me. All I know is I have to listen to all my music again. It compelles me...:)...it makes me smile and if music can't do that,,it ain't working....happy listening everyone...cheers, lloyd

Approaching the 100 hour mark and over the last little while I've noticed a relaxing into the music feeling. I think the unit has simply settled in [and my ears also have settled in]. But the end result is very easy to take. You can hear flaws and mistakes in various recordings but it doesn't get in the way of the enjoyment of the music. Yes, I would definetly go straight to this board[NXE] over the NE if you have an Nuforce 93 but be warned. You'll want to listen to everything all over again....Try not to be moved when you listen to "Lonesome Valley" by the Fairfield Four" on the "O Brother, Where Art Thou" soundtrack.....simply righteously awe-inspiring....back to the tunes. cheers, llooyd
