With its high-performance audio board, here's a Blu-ray player even stereo Luddites will appreciate
Gorgeous two-channel analogue performance ; Excellent HD image quality ; Terrific build
Lacklustre online content portal ; Not compatible with 3D BD
Expert review by : Daniel Phillips (techradar.com)
Oppo offers a feature-packed connoisseur's Blu-ray deck for the right money
Tons of features ; Fast disc loading ; Good pictures and sound
No Wi-Fi ; wouldn't play MP3 ; Some picture noise
It gives current midrange darlings from the likes of Pioneer and Panasonic a run for their money. Worth every penny of its price tag

If the Oppo BDP-83SE NuForce Edition looks familiar, it's because it is. This is a Special Edition of Oppo's long-lost European Blu-ray debutant, the BDP-83, with some additional pixie dust from NuForce.
Gorgeous two-channel analogue performance; excellent HD image quality; terrific build
Lacklustre online content portal; not compatible with 3D BD

When they first appeared in 2005, Oppo Digital quickly found favour with AV enthusiasts thanks largely to the level of respect they offered their customers. The new company proved highly responsive to feedback and bug reports from established video...

Ever since standalone Blu-ray players hit the market, there's been a great deal of anticipation for an Oppo Blu-ray player, mainly because of the company's reputation for making excellent upconverting DVD players . Oppo held out for quite some time,...
Universal disc player capable of handling Blu-ray, DVD, SACD, DVD-Audio and CD; outstanding image quality on Blu-rays and DVDs; best-in-class operational speed and stability; 7.1 analog outputs; feels built to last; onboard Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD...
Expensive; competing players offer comparable performance on vast majority of Blu-ray movies; no Wi-Fi for BD-Live features; lacks streaming media services like Netflix and Pandora.
The Oppo BDP-83 is an outstanding universal disc player with excellent performance on Blu-rays and DVDs and lightning-fast operational speed, but most home theater fans will balk at the high price.

Last year we reviewed the Oppo DV-983H universal DVD player which, while a couple years too late to market, was still an impressive product that redefined the price points for universal players. Now, with the only other universal Blu-ray/DVD player...
Plays all disc formats ; Inexpensive ; Superb video quality ; Embarrasses high end players
Slow BD-Live! performance ; Expect some firmware updates
Expert review by : Gene DellaSala (audioholics.com)
Based on my bench tests and real world usage, the Oppo BDP-83 is everything everyone claims it to be. It's easy to set-up, and plays back all of of the current formats via a single HDMI connection
Expert review by : Clint DeBoer (audioholics.com)
at the DVDO booth. This year they didn't disappoint. Unannounced, wegot wind of a non-functioning prototype Blu-ray player that was sittingat DVDO's CEDIA booth. What's this? An Oppo Blu-ray player? Could thisbe the holy grail so many were hoping and...

In a system with HDMI connections, the OPPO BDP-83 is an extremely desirable player to have because it's a fantastic Blu-ray player with a beautiful picture and speedy operation. Standard DVD processing is top notch as well and the player features high...
