 AWESOME BLU_PLAYER!!! March 18, 2010

I have been following this Blu-Ray player since it was released to the public for sale last year.
This player is everything i had hoped for and more. Plays everything i have thrown at it without
any hiccup at all. Got rid of two dvd players with this purchase. Packaging is great and amazon
delivered on time as promised. Oh! Did i mention that the tech support is great as well? Received
an e-mail in a couple of hours. Not days!! I didnt think that kind of product support existed
anymore. If you been waiting for the best player out there at this price point, go ahead and make
it happen. You wont be disappointed.
 Oppo does not work March 17, 2010

Oppo does not work as advertised, I have no video and some audio formats work and others do not, tried to return and I was told that I had had it too long, 31 days spent trying on different HDTV and different formats. Sound no better than old player and not worth the money
 Lots of buck for the bang. And SACD pops between tracks. March 14, 2010

I spent a long time deciding to order this player, even waiting for the BDP-80 to be released so I could see the specs/reviews.
I did return the player. Most of the other reviews cover the pros and cons of this player.
The cons that surprised me:
Mild pops between SACD tracks (analog outputs). Yes, a niche format and not the sort of thing to bother someone listening to non-classical music. I'm surprised this topic is only now showing up in places such as avsforums.
A/V sync problems (analog outputs). The OPPO lets you adjust A/V sync, but only on the HDMI. Not the analogs.
If I have to buy a modern receiver to bypass these analog out issues, then I'll just downgrade the BP player and buy a new receiver.
Thanks

From all the other reviews, it's apparent the quaility of the video and audio are superb. No other comes close to the dvd upconverting, and the audio is something that has to be heard to be believed. I want to talk about customer service. About a week after I rewatched (is that a word?) all my favorite movies. I was checking for firmware updates, and realized I wasn't getting connected to the internet. I emailed Oppo about the problem, and literally 5 minutes later I got a reply. Going back and forth trying to troubleshoot the problem, the nic card is the problem. Oppo says to return it to Amazon for a exchange. So far, 5 stars to Oppo for customer service I haven't exprienced in years. It's refreshing to know it still out there. But wait, now dreading to have to pack up the player and all the cables to send back to Amazon, I call them for a RMA. Amazon says, We will send you a new one, when it arrives put the return player in the box and we will email you a shipping label and give it back to the ups driver. OMG, did I die and go to customer service heaven? Could this be a sign? Either way, Oppo and Amazon are on my very very short list of company's I will return to again.
