DawnGordon Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 There's not much discounting on Oppo. I sell Oppo so PM me for more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Any particular reason why the Oppo is about 2X the price of the Sammy or Sony 4K BR players? Is it worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Same reason some receivers are 2 times or more the price of others even though there 'specs' for power and inputs may be the same, luxury cars are more than standard hatchbacks or sedans and one restaurant is more expensive than the next. Because it's better, with increase in video quality and especially sound. Because it has features others do not (yet) add. I'm sure a google search will give you plenty of comparison info there. If it's WORTH it is up to you to decide. It's more because it's a better product. If you value the increase in quality to equal or more than the increase in cost, it's worth it.

zaphod Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Just wanted to make sure that it was in fact a better quality product. I was not very familiar with the Oppo brand name. It appears that they have a very good reputation for building players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaphod Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 It is interesting that they are a Chinese brand coming into the market at the high end. What other Chinese brands can you think of that have done that? DJI in drones maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an audiophile DAC and preamp made by Auralic and its from China and the build quality is unreal not to mention sound. CHI-Fi is starting to make some real in-roads. As for Oppo, I would not consider them a Chinese brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I was going from the description on Wikipedia which says: "OPPO Electronics Corp. is a Chinese electronics manufacturer based in Dongguan, Guangdong. Its major product lines include smartphones, Blu-ray players and other electronic devices." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always talked to a US team in the past when I had questions on my gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I think they have an office in California as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not positive but I think Oppo Digital (DVDs, headphones,, etc) is a bit different than the Oppo side that makes smartphones. I don't know if completely different spin offs or all one company but when you search for Oppo China, it only brings up the phone side of the house. I don't believe Oppo Digital even has a location in China. I'm sure someone knows for sure the distinction if any on this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnGordon Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 One of the reasons I use Oppo exclusively with anamorphic projector installations is because it's the only player I know that can move subtitles up into the picture. Without this capability, subtitles would not be visible in anamorphic mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
