Is there any real alternative to Oppo??

Mediatek is an OEM supplier that provides the platform for the OPPO BDP-95 and Cambridge Audio Azur 751BD. Both use the same Mediatek chipset. This should explain things better:

The Oppo 103 is only 500$ new. And Oppo is the ONLY product I know of that has never had a discouraging word spoken about it. From what I have read on the Video sites, their gurus say blu-ray is blu-ray, so the differences to look for are the feature set and the Audio. Everyone praises the Audio on the Oppo. And as a plus, it's very well built. Most blu-ray only players are very flimsy. So you get blu-ray and a SACD player in the same package. Seems to be a good deal. Great customer service also.

With the 103 and 105, you also get very useful streaming features.

Since you seem content to accept second best, look at the one's you've mentioned, i.e. denon, marantz. Those are the brands you're likely to find locally. You can probably get the Oppo with fee shipping from Oppo and have it in a couple of days. Why so impatient?

Technically Oppo and Cambridge use the same Mediatek platform. There are a number of threads on this, but "Agisthos" appears to have a good handle on this in this thread:
