OPPO OPDV971H Digital HD-Ready Up-Converting DVD Player
OPPO blows away competition
OPPO 971H is the first DVD player that has satisfied my thirst for HD performance from a DVD player. I spent a lot (thousands) on my HD 65\\" RPT and my previous DVD player that claimed to have upconversion wasn't cutting. So, I researched DVD players that would get the most of out my bigscreen. I took a chance on OPPO and I love it! My bigscreen handles the 971H's output beautifully. <br />The OPPO player pumped true color and sound while handling the constant pause and go throughout the DVD. OPPO also includes a DVI cable with its DVD player, something that is unheard of nowadays. The simple look and silver color allows for a nice match to most entertainment systems, something that I am extremely picky about. Another feature of the OPPO player was its ability to play just about any type of CD, from Kodak Picture to SVCD. The 5.1 sound was also impressive since each channel was clearly separated in order to \\"suck you into the movie\\" even more. <br />Compared to my old DVD player this is what I found useful: <br /> <br />*the sound was much better  <br /> <br />*the image was cleaner and more colorful  <br /> <br />*it was great price...$200 is a bargain  <br /> <br />*easy to use <br /> <br />*easy to set up to home system <br /> <br />*smaller and looked \\"cleaner\\" <br /> <br />*DVI and HDMI compatible  <br /> <br />*the overall performance of the player   <br /> <br />OPPO has satisfied my need for HD content through its OPPO 971H player! Although some DVD players claim HD output, OPPO is the first in my experience that has shown me a player that comes through in the clutch.
