Oppo BDP-83 All Multi Region Code Free DVD BLU RAY Player. Plays all region DVD 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 PAL or NTSC. And Zone A B C Blu Rays Price



The player works as advertised. It’s loads very quickly even for BD disks with a lot of pre loading content. I have mine hooked up to an Onkyo NX900 via the analog 7.1 out, which works like a charm. The only unfortunate thing is that the player does not engage the rear speakers with a 5.1 source. This means that for regular DVD’s only the front and side speakers are producing sound. This is somewhat disappointing for a high end player, for instance Onkyo does actually add the rear speakers to duplicate the sound from the side speakers (Matrixed). I was surprised to learn that this was the case with the Oppo and that it cannot be changed.
I have not had a chance to check out the multi region capabilities but I am sure that will work as advertised as well.

OPPO BDP-83 Blu-ray Disc Player with SACD, DVD-Audio, and VRS Technology Price



I purchased the BDP-83 to replace my 5 year old non Blu-Ray OPPO DVD player. Which still works great. Since I am so pleased with the existing player I figured upgrading to Blu-Ray with another OPPO would be a good move. I am not disappointed. The BDP-83 is one solid piece of equipment. It’s very well put together. Though probably a bit heavier & larger than some competitive products I chaulk it up to the quality of the overall construction. The picture quality for Blu_ray is great & load times super fast. The picture rendition of non Blu-Ray DVDs’ is where this unit also shines. Due to it’s ability to up convert the standard DVDs’ to 1080P you get as close as you can get to high definition viewing from non Blu-Ray DVDs. Setup was easy using the wizard & it was up and running in a matter of minutes. I’m not big on the audio stuff so I can’t really speak to that end other than to say that I use the Dolby Digital 5:1 & DTS options & they sound great. The only downside, which I was aware of anyway prior to purchase, is the lack of data streaming ability. But since I have plenty of PPV & on demand options available to me via my satellite & cable providers I don’t see this as any great loss. Though the OPPO brand isn’t very well known I always recommend OPPO when asked about DVD players when asked by friends & family.
