Amazing Upgrade for Oppo 93/103 and CA Players

There are plenty of modders who do full service on the Oppo players. But I have come across an amazing upgrade that can be done by anyone in 5 minutes.

Dr Lee Jaehong is based in South Korea and makes a replacement linear power supply for the Oppo and Cambridge Audio Blu-ray players.

You just take out the 5 screws for the old SMPS, and drop the new LPM in. Nothing difficult. I actually have a Cambridge Audio BD751, and the upgrade was pretty dramatic for audio and video, in every aspect.

Apparently many are saying this power supply in the Oppo103 takes it past the level of 105, and you get all round better video quality as a bonus.

Agisthos, thanks for this! I find it amazing and amusing that the initial response of posters here was to snark and snipe.

I'll definitely consider this.

I can suggest another DIY mod, that works amazingly well:

Very easy to install, completely reversible, and a significant audio and video improvement for my Oppo 103.

Nice find Acostas, I just ordered one to try out.

I just hope its real Mundorf silver/gold wire. I have used that wire before to jump fuses and it works very well on the power side of things.

Thanks Agisthos and Acostas.
These mods seem pretty straightforward.
By the way, are you two the fourth and fifth Musketeers?
:-)

All the best,
Nonoise

Does anyone know if HongKong Basket makes the above mentioned IEC mod for an OPPO 83 SE?
