Overview
An audiophile with a dedicated home theater is the buyer this OPPO player targets. It plays Blu-ray, DVD and CD discs at ultra-high-definition resolution, routes audio through its analog stage, and ignores region locks for discs from anywhere.
The reason to buy is the audio hardware: dual DACs, improved HDMI clock precision and a stronger headphone amplifier. The limit is that it is a disc-focused player, and the listing says little about streaming, apps or networking.
Who it's for
Collectors with a good amplifier and speakers, and discs from different regions, will use the audio stages and region-free playback. Casual viewers who stream most content, or who have limited rack space, will not use what makes this model stand out.
Pros and cons
- Plays discs from any region
- Two DACs on analog outputs
- Built-in headphone amplifier
- Improved HDMI audio clock
- Heavy and large body
- Few streaming details listed
- Channel count field looks unclear
- Warranty not listed
Performance notes
The analog output stages use two ESS Sabre Pro DACs, which is where the player aims its sound quality, and the HDMI audio clock is tightened for steadier digital audio. Video is decoded and sent on to the television without region restrictions. Gains depend on the amplifier and speakers downstream.
