Hi Mark,
Most interesting, but the one in your link is priced at £499.17... Is that a different one? :)

Hi Marco
That's odd, the website is showing you the price without VAT and should only do this if you register in a country outside of the EU.
I can confirm the price is £599.00 inclusive of VAT.
We've got F8Creates looking at this as we speak :)
£599 here with me. Marco, has had new bb in so maybe that causing the mismatch in countries?

What bb are you using Josie?

This Oppo is I think the most anticipated in years. I was thinking of getting one at one point but other things have come up since.
There is one thing I'd like to try, would this Oppo be able to stream music from a HDD, if so then I wonder what the quality is like?
Hi,
The UDP-203 will have streaming capabilities but we don't have the specifications yet.
With the 103D I frequently used a HDD connected to the USB input to play mkv files and the picture and sound was comparable to disc.
from tr The UDP-203 can also be used as a media streamer via built-in dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4 and 5.0GHz) or Ethernet. It will play AVI, MKV, MOV, M2TS/TS, MP3, WMA, AAC, AIFF, ALAC, APE, DSD, FLAC and WAV from DLNA/SMB servers on a network. It also plays media from HDDs up to 16TB plugged into a USB port.
The only snag is that the UDP-203 doesn’t offer any video streaming from services such as Amazon or Netflix. This isn't a huge issue given that most new TVs have these services built in – but even so, it’s one area in which Oppo’s rivals have the upper hand

Have a 103D here used mainly for streaming video and the occasional Bluray.Quote:

"Different" but not better or worse than my Transporter into the same Dac to be honest...prefer the sound from the Transporter though and I get to use Roon with it, so that's my daily driver for music.
BTW I watch Netflix from my Oppo...my Telly has it too as well as being able to cast from my phone 'n tablet.
Compared them of a wet Sunday afternoon and the Opoo's implementation is MUCH better. Seriously...much.
Again...its that thing of doing the same thing "on paper" but quality will always out?
Oppo's are a helluva piece of kit, seriously...they cure that nagging feeling that maybe you COULD do better?
With Oppo kit....no you can't.
Like buying a Leica camera... not the cheapest, but, you know...
No worries, Hamish will sort it out - and he has. It's showing as £599 now, using Google Chrome as a browser :)Quote:

It only upscales to 4K (but offers superb performance for the money), so I'd imagine that the Oppo would trump it? :cool:

Hi Marco
The new OPPO UDP-203 will for sure trump your Sony BD player!
In my experience it’s HDR that makes the bigger difference with the new UHD formats, but then not all 4K UHD discs are created equal.
For example, if you compare the “Oblivion” 1080p to 4K UHD disc, you might wonder what the fuss is about. But do the same with “The Revenant” and you’ll be picking your jaw up of the floor.
Hi All
OPPO have emailed to say the price of the UDP-203 is likely to change due to currency fluctuations and US pricing being confirmed.
Will update as soon as we know more.
Hi All
OPPO have revised the pricing of the UDP-203 to £649.00 or EURO 849.00.
Information and photos are now available at the Audiocom AV website.
We are all pleased to offer the UDP-203 with MultiZone DVD + MultiRegion Blu-ray price £729.00;
