Post Oppo to launch first dedicated SACD-compatible Blu-ray player

Purveyor of high-quality Universal DVD upscalers, Oppo, has shown the world’s first standalone Super Audio CD compatible Blu-ray player at the CEDIA Expo in Denver. The brand’s BDP-83 is certain to beat Sony’s first dedicated SACD BD player, tentatively scheduled for 2009, to market.


Oppo says that its model will be a Profile 2.0 machine and will feature ABT 2010 de-interlacing and scaling silicon for both DVD and Blu-Ray discs.  read more »

Re: Oppo to launch first dedicated SACD-compatible Blu-ray player

So if it's $700 I guess it will be around £500-£600 here, yes? That's too much for me

Even if it has SACD, DVD-A, SD multiregion and Blu Ray multiregion, £500.00 a piece is not going to sell many!
