    Default Big Sale Thread: #1 - Oppo 103D Bluray Player

    Changes to my system so some items up for Sale.
    First up my Oppo BS103D Bluray player.

    The player is absolutely clean, no dings, dents or gouges. Much loved, placed in rack when new and left alone.
    Just over a year old, paid £599 for the player and £125 for the MultiRegion board.

    Product info here:
    http://www.oppodigital.co.uk/ecommer.../BDP-103D.aspx
    Amazon Reviews here: http://www.amazon.com/OPPO-BDP-103D-...ustomerReviews

    Rolex build quality, this is Bluray done right, the gold standard:

    * Astonishingly good picture quality on Bluray and upscaled DVD.
    * Darbee edition which has additional video processing technology built in, works fantastically well to further improve picture quality.
    * Has the multiregion board fitted, so can play Blurays from around the world.
    * Upscales DVD's to 1080p to as close to bluray quality as it doesnt matter.
    * Upscale image to 4K resolution, Futureproof for your next TV.
    * Fantastic disc player and digital transport, plays SACD's and DVD-Audio's (Internal DAC is very VERY good)
    * Network Streaming, can act as a music streamer for all your music and video stores on NAS or external USB drives.
    * Twin HDMI inputs, plug in your Sky or Tivo box have the Oppo upscale picture to 1080p

    PLAYER SPECS

    ALSO AS PART OF THE SALE:
    The Oppo can output DSD audio via its HDMI output to your AV receiver.
    This means DSD audio can be extracted from SACDs.
    I didn't have an AV receiver that can do this, but I wanted to play SACD's via my external DAC, so bought an HDMI Audio Extractor which outputs SACD audio as 24/96 to Dac via spdif optical or RCA coax. Heavy unit, quality build...Absolutely fantastic, works perfectly without impacting sound quality.
    Depending on your DAC can improve on SACD sound from Oppo analogue outputs.





    Selling for a firm £550 delivered which includes the SACD audio extractor as part of the sale.


    thanks.

    I've seen how the OPPO performs in your A/V system and I think this is a very wise decision mate. It's a fantastic Bluray player and you do like your films

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
