Glad that I bought one while I could....I love it...what a great company and superb product! I worry about where we are headed with regards to quality products in this area....
It`s good to see someone with the same passion for bluray disc players that I share!
A true loss to the audio / video enthusiasts. My OPPO’s will be with me until the end!
Just ordered an Oppo 203. Don't wanna miss out if I wait until I get my OLED by the end of the year.
Do you know if I'll get a nice upgrade in picture on my current 2014 4K TV model in the meantime?
Couldn't agree more, I just upgraded the firmware on my 203 last night.
Just crushed. I just found out and 4k uhd's are just now taking off like crazy. Love my 203 and has brought so much joy to me and my girlfriend.
Streaming to me just doesn’t provide the sound or picture quality of a disc, or over the air broadcast. I guess some are happy with “good enough”.
Had my OPPO BDP 103 since 2013 LUV IT! Have you heard of REAVON a French company building & supplyiing "Oppo' like build HD Players? Their first 2 players are in the 203 &205 design vein.
Having owned the BDP-105D, I think the only people who will really be saddened by this news are those who use their players to their full potential (as both disc spinner and standalone DAC), even if the SABRE implementation was never to my taste. Even with the budget to buy Blu--Ray movies regularly, I tend to watch them once and put them away : hardly great VFM compared to treasured albums I've listened to regularly for over 40 years, Their players represented fantastic value for reviewers - one box that would play almost anything digital, and a box that many 'real world' music lovers could relate to when the inevitable comparisons were made with the gear under review. Vale Oppo.
If you cant get the 203, and have a good video processor and a good receiver, which 4k/3d capable bluray player?
In Hong Kong we do have upgrade services for 03&05, I had done for my 203 and it was very good👍🏻
Kwok Fai Leung yeah looking forward to getting the bits in
Sad day in the av world man. Love my 203 and am happy they will still provide service and firmware updates
Imagine how much these are going to be worth when they've finally liquidated their inventory?
😂😂😂 This why i love DENON
Does the oppo give you better picture quality than the sony or samsungs
Heard about this Tuesday 3rd from Steve G. I have the 203 and was a PRE-order ! You can through just about ANY format at it and it will play it ! One of the very FEW players that will spin and play a DVD-R directly !!!! Keepin' mine ((O:
Time to stock up on oppo players, they'll be worth triple in a few years.
It's heading towards full streaming you know it, music is too.
I don't care, I'll buy all the unwanted records and CDs
Crazy prayingmantis - Finally, someone who shares the same sentiments. When it all goes to hell and the internet goes down, guys like us with physical media will be worth billions.😂
It didn't take years to go up triple. It's happening now. The 203 is $1600 and the 205 is $3600!
@@TheNeighborNicky how much is it now?
Yea, sad day indeed. I was gonna finally gonna get one, now I’m checking out the Cambridge version now. Virtually identical.
I just bought a JVCNX5B or rs1000 front projector do you think micro led will many years from now will kill the front projector for jumbo screen sizes at home. The lcd led tvs 86 inch for now Outside the high end models. And no Dolby vision for now on projectors I have hdr though it will be interesting what they do with commercial cinema like IMAX in future
Sir, Does Cambridge audio CXUHD supports Sony TV Dolby Vision Profile?
I upgraded the 103 to the 205. I Have the HA- 1 and the HA-2 headphone amps and PM-1 headphones. I love their stuff. Will miss them very much.
for me this is like when Pioneer quit at the Kuro, Tag Mclaren audio folded (audiolab /iag acquisition never continued the aspirational development path)... Oppo have been a true product for those in the know... It's a shame.
For me it's like the day I found out that I was circumcised. Still mad at my parents.
Joe Al.... To an extent I always felt I made the wrong decision way back when I decided on an early Arcam delta 90 rather than the Audiolab 8000a back in the 80s....i just don't think they're what they were.... Audiolab, Castle Acoustics, Mission, Quad..... For me all seem to have lost charm...for me Luxman is the only one that that still holds allure.
LOL! Funny! I've heard the Cambridge Audio CXUHD has identical video processor to the 203 and 205. I'm going to try and get one in for a side by side comparison...once I have the cash. Anyway, I just found your channel and subscribed, it's very cool!!
Hi Techno Dad. That would be great. I was about to buy the 203 later this year. But if its sold out at the time, i might go for the CXUHD.
I'm very curious to see what the CXUHD is like!
Cambridge 'borrowed' a lot of tech from Oppo for their player. Their future may be uncertain also. The Cambridge has great reviews, but no analog out. Deal breaker for some.
I agree the lack of an analog out is a deal breaker for sure.
Sad news. Another perfectionist brand throws the towell. We'll miss them.
Does anybody knows which music is that on the video? I don't find it.
After OPPO there is NONE.......:(
Great video. Burnley manager by day home cinema enthusiast by night.
LOL I just looked him up Sean Dyche - Great Banter
Haha. Keep up the good content.👌
Love the 😞 intro. 😂 A man that feels the same way I do about having a physical disc for watching contents. Like I keep saying. I know that everyone thinks streaming is the future, but I’m gonna continue to buy disc until streaming is up to Par with a 4K Blu-Ray disc quality. I’m still hoping someone come to their senses and say this was all a big joke. If not, R.I.P. Oppo. You will be greatly missed.
H.M.S PF preach it brother. Feeling that pain too.
Get a PC :)
Does the oppo give you better picture quality than the sony or samsungs
How correct you were about Streaming services killing the 4k market. I'm just now looking at getting either the Panasonic ubp-900 or the Oppo 203 now after just ordering my first hi end 75 inch Sony TV and a Bose soundbar. Do you think the oppo 203 today would still be higher quality picture and sound than the later 4k players. These days there isn't really much choice either the Sony 700m or the Panasonic 820. I'm looking at the 900 and Oppo as although the first they seemed the best made.
I bought a 203, had a 103D and a significant step up.
Knew Oppo was leaving the market, so my 203 was my final disc player.
As the kind of guy who likes to make the best of my gear, I set about making the best Blu-ray player even better.
See my Modding thread here if that’s of interest: theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?56087-Hey-guess-what-I%92m-about-to-do-Major-Oppo-mods
I went the full Oppomod route.
Linear power supply, upgraded clock, all improved silver internal wiring, i2s audio output board, (awesome to a Directstream Dac), Transport and case dampening and other stuff.
Big upgrade in video and audio, as a disc spinner and Network streamer/ Roon endpoint it’s fantastic.
Yup, video too.
The Oppo’s HDMI input, let’s me plug in my Nvidia Shield and take advantage of the Oppo’s processing prowess for Netflix/ Amazon Prime, TH-cam and even to “Gamestream” PC games to the big telly and sound system in the living room.
All possible because of the Oppo.
It’s a helluva bit of kit, so glad I got mine.
Very sad news indeed. I just bought a 203 last week, and I have one of their original dvd player the Dv-981. The only thing I didn't like is that if I play a cd, the sound would cut out for a few seconds and then resumes. Oppo said it's because I have a Sony tv hooked to it, the fix they told me is turn on the tv when playing a cd or disconnect the hdmi wire.
And now, look at how much Oppo 205's go for online. 2 years after discontinuing, and you can still sell it for over original cost.
Yeah it’s really unfortunate about the shirt, hold onto it, its price will triple!
If i am not mistaken, they will continue to make firmupdates for these players..
Great video and it is truly sad and you are right, it will be a race to the bottom because streaming is slowly pushing the disc out. Best Buy will stop selling music cd and Target only wants to sell music cds on consignment. How long will it be before they try this with movies as well. That looks like a Luxman integrated behind you. If it is the one that I think it is, I heard it at Music Direct and I was very impressed with what I heard. I remembered Pioneer leaving that market and do you also remember Panasonic leaving the Plasma market as well. I still have two Panasonic Plasmas tvs and have had them for years and they have better picture quality than anything since, except OLED. Panasonic and Pioneer were so diversified so they were not hurt by this, but OPPO doesn't have the diversification and unfortunately the blue ray and headphone markets are over saturated, but OPPO quality will be missed.
I am sad and embarrassed to say that I just became aware of OPPO about one year ago, in fact it was a few months before they pulled out of the market. I have been in the beginning phase of establishing a HIFI, stereo system, and have been looking at a decent Network player as my source along with a phono. I have been looking at the new SONY HAP S1, etc. and Cambridge network players, BUT I see OPPO BDP 105 for sale on various audio sites. What do you think? I mean, if OPPO is out, how can I get filmware upgrades?? I guess OPPO 105 and most certain 205 probably run circles around the aforementioned suppliers? Thanks.
Sad because crap rules these days....mediocre music formats, etc...
David Burris - Preach on brother, preach on.👏🏾😊
I think Oppo saw the light and thought seeing as though 4k movies are crap, why sacrifice their top product on a format that is holding them back...
The herd always win in a capitalist market
What set of speaker you are using there with the metallic bronze driver?
DHRHA Hi They are KEF Reference 3 in Kent and Foundry Copper and Black Finish
Pursuit Perfect System Thanks mate. Will look into it here in Malaysia
Bought my Oppo 205 the day they were released and is one of my favorites components on my system but by far the best disc player I've ever had. In my opinion the sold them for too cheap. They are worth at least twice what they charged.
Just bought one it’s fantastic... at least they will keep updating firmware. I guess it’s still going to be a great player for a long time to come?
David Whitaker defo
Pioneer Elite Plasma and now Oppo. Surprised there are actually this many disc players left on the market in 2020. Sad indeed.
I am happy with my 203. A beautiful player. Too bad they will be no more!
Its a great player I hope I can make it a bit better
The Upgraded parts arrived today so will be doing the video series for it soon - thanks for watching
Yes its sad about OPPO .I'm still kicking around with my 103 model . Its true playing off a optical disc UHD movie or a BLURAY directly from your player is indeed way better performance than watching from a streaming service. I don't mind streaming services but I know its not the ultimate quality. Your dealing with a little compression . Back in the hay day of VHS with HI FI machines the sound was much more direct from the REMASTERED movie than the way it sounded from cable TV.
You really need some grilles on those speakers!
Streaming is only a problem because they don’t put up the disc quality 50GB version commonly. They do on certain websites...
Now update for 203 205 oppo HDR 10 i have him instald from USB stick it is working
The candle burned out long before the legend ever did.... thanks oppo :'-(
I still have an opportunity BDP-93 I’m making it my dedicated CD player wen I get a 4K player.
Have both UDP-203 and a BDP-103. I can not believe this is how it is becoming! Sad
I just looked at Oppomod. You were right, even I could install this!
I have made several videos showing how you do it and what some of the benefits are
Yep, I have been watching them today. I am going to order the linear power supply SE.
Jim Nixon excellent please say you saw it via my video please that would help me out so manufacturers know how my videos help them. Best of luck all the best
Thanks Terry, I just emailed you about the Dirac.
Jim Nixon have replied ;)
Cinemike in Germany also does tuning of the Oppo: www.cinemike.de/de-de/tuning/tuning%C3%BCbersicht/oppo/oppoudp203205.aspx
The future is scary 😰
Damn the King has left the building ain't that a b****
I have the UB900 is the difference in sound between the 2 players (UB900 & 203) a significant one ? (i have a home cinema with a 7.2.4 setup)
They could at least sell the chips or design to someone else. However, since Pioneer ditched Bush from within their latest Bluray players, they might be the new top spotters.
Maybe Panasonic will bring out something badass. I dont know....something like their panasonic ub9000.
A standard 2-Layer Bluray disc has a data capacity of 50 GB. On the other hand, a 3-Layer UHD Bluray disc has a capacity of up to 100 GB. Currently, streaming services are way far from delivering a full movie in a reasonable time (0.5 hr), but I have no doubt they will catch up eventually. And then all the content will be digital, with no physical media involved. You shouldn't be scared about that future, but excited of the possibilities, one of them being able to get rid of the disc slavery once and for all.
Having said that, yes, I agree it's very sad that Oppo has gone off-market. I was planning to get an UDP-203 myself, but now they will be harder to get.
Disk slavery. I would more say it’s slavery to streaming services that you pay each month and can take down your favourite film if it doesn’t suit a partial agenda or infringes on copyright law. Ain’t no one taking my disks.
your ticket to go to
Panasonic DMP-UB900 Ultra HD Blu-ray Player
Home Theater Fever haha have you ever had one ?.. I'm so sorry for your Loss but hey I guess it wasn't all that Lol....get the Panny at least it will continue to be upgraded!
The Panny has risen Lol love mine ,glad I made the purchase.. although the build quality on Oppo is second to none
Will it play DVD-A or SACD? No word on the street about that yet.
Bad thumb nail, hadn't used my Oppo 103 since I got a Sony 4k player,player started to freeze so I turned if off and connected my Oppo back , seriously it sounds so much better,now I have to get my hands on a oppo 203 or 205.
Dang was hoping to buy a 205 later this year. Hope they have a liquidation sale.
Agent Orange they haven't gone into liquidation just decided to withdraw from digital product sales boy ray players headphones etc
Pursuit Perfect System
Yeah, just wishful thinking
Correct my friend
I think the decision to abandon this is from a kind of placebo effect. "Well Best Buy doesn't sell CD's anymore, and people are buying vinyl now, we'll just drop this because it's all about money and we can make millions selling cellpones, so why should we bother." Look vinyl came back and CD's will do the same. I also think it was the share holders and investors who dictated this decision. Very short sighted and myopic. Looking too closely at the profit margin.
Qppo 205 creo que puede leer MQA CDs, no esta todo perdido, son otros tiempos...Simplemente mantener los antiguos lectores y actualizar a MQA...Lastima que hay muy pocos MQA CDs...Nunca pagaré por las descargas. Me gusta pagar por un soporte físico, las descargas simplemente no son para mi...Vinilos, cd, bluray, lo que sea pero físico...Mi dinero es físico y lo gano con esfuerzo físico y mental...jejjjejejejeje....
I have never seen any streamed or downloaded video that came close to a good Blu-ray in picture quality. Sound for video is never going to be all that great no matter what format, they are all very lossy. BTW, I have 93, 103, 203, all still work perfect.
Julia Set All TH-cam 4K videos look excellent
Sometimes, but not all the time, when one door closes, another door opens. Sure we lost the Pioneer Kuro but we got OLED's to take their place. As for buying an OPPO now, I'm gonna pass. Technology is constantly changing, I rather wait for what's new. Next year almost all the new products should have HDMI 2.1. That's just one example. Plus I hear there's other companies that make similar quality players (Cambridge Audio) and will have great streaming apps as well. The king is dead, long live the new king. Nice looking speakers, whose makes those?
carlcat oleds suck just like plasma before it
GOOD NEWS, Reavon takes over for where Oppo ended! However the "Audiophile" edition of the player starts at $1799.00
when the denon 3313 ud bluray player was out where was oppo 😂😂😂😂. only oppo had no contest in 4k players was denon thought this was no need to rule the throne as king of picture quality. Now focused more on audio over image insted.
In two minds about their demise. I bought the 103D, and what got on my nerves was it's inability to play discs correctly a lot of the time, cutting into intros on many discs. Also not recognising 3D discs on first insertion a lot of the time. Not what you expect from a £600 player. However, when it worked the picture quality was great, although I was never impressed with the Darbee effects. I'll keep hold of it because I have a lot of SACD's.
i own a 103, rather than a mod i just use an outboard DAC. easier to upgrade.
This was using an outboard dac
At least mp3 is almost dead, most streaming services are using better codecs such as the opus codec which is miles better then any garbage mp3 codec
Sad day. :-(
I'm crying over not buying the 4K model Oppo when it was still available for $549. My 1080P Oppo is the best Blu-ray player ever made. I had to settle for the $499. Panasonic 4K Player and I hate it for more reasons that is just not worth talking about without getting me pissed.
I was reading someone's OppoMod to the 205 on head.fi.org the other day:
www.head-fi.org/threads/review-comparison-of-5-high-end-digital-music-servers-aurender-n10-cad-cat-server-totaldac-d1-server-auralic-aries-audiophile-vortex-box.787020/page-78#post-14117821
He says in this thread that the audio was very good in opinion after there OppoMod upgrade. He says the upgrade compares very upgrade favourably to his Chord Dave whilst using the optical out from the 205 to the Chrod Dave. He like yourself has a very good Music Server.
I'm guessing you will be very impressed with the OppoMod (especially into the Chrod Qutest)
The OppoMod does a lot of what I have do to my music pc thats why I have wanted to do it for a while but couldnt really justify it.
However after listening to the Qutest JCat LPSU and Luxman for weeks I put the Arcam AVR850 back in with the Luxman for L and R and watched the latest Planet apes and it sounded bloody awful.
Coupled with the Oppo news I thought got to something about this - I have a few other tricks up my sleeve as well
I had an Oppo BDP-93 and it was underwhelming at best. At high playback levels the noise floor was so high that listening was out of the question. As far as I'm concerned I say good riddance to Oppo.
The company committed suicide with no apps, high prices,and no way for the average consumer to even physically see it,think about it no marketing at all,I didn't even know about Oppo untill about a year ago ,your average consumer probably never heard of them
You crack me up ! Lol but it is very sad news
Upgrade to WHAT????????..........
Well, the best we could hope for would be a lateral move to another unit. Most likely a downgrade in terms of features and quality.
Panasonic UB9000 or UB820
I knew something was wrong when this guy decided to put on a pair of socks.
Michael B. ahahahahaha quality !!
At 3:28. While I do sympathize with the loss of Oppo (one of the best electronics companies ever), stating "nothing is good that is cheap" is simply one of the biggest lies ever told. I own some expensive equipment and by contrast, I own some very inexpensive equipment. And my inexpensive equipment fairs quite well! . . . like the Sony X800 (paid $169), the Onkyo TX-8270 (paid $350), the audioengine P4N (paid $325), and my Infinity AC AIRCOM T9 (paid $99). All of these inexpensive, all of these fantastic performers. Do they compare to a $1500 Oppo? No, but to say they are bad because they are cheap . . . is just stupid.
I think you have missed my point there.
If the world goes streaming only and then we see a race to the bottom who can do it the cheapest - that will likely mean quality will suffer at the same time.
That's the whole point of the video really.
You do get what you pay for in the majority of cases
I did not miss your point. It was crystal clear. And I agree with your last statement . . . you do get what you pay for.
I've chanted it for years. You pay more, you get more. You pay less, you get less. All that is fundamentally true.
As for a downward spiral in A/V quality, that remains to be seen. Sometimes the market has a way of correcting itself.
Younger people tend to have less disposable income and therefore tend to gravitate to what is cheap or free (and therefore of low quality).
When I was 23, I didn't have any money either. In my twenties, I was more concerned with paying the rent on time and putting food in my mouth.
In my opinion, it will be older, wiser, wealthier, seasoned shoppers who will demand quality, put their cash behind their buying decisions, and the market will reciprocate.
All that said, your statement "nothing is good that is cheap", is too broad, not specific enough, and still a lie and still incorrect.
I dont know about it being a lie - because it all depends on a point of view of value. Some will see Netflix £10 as cheap and amazing for the money.
Others will think £10 a month is expensive.
Netflix is brilliant and I dont see it as expensive but can it be classed as cheap. Would it still be the same quality if they only charged £2 a month - I dont think so - that was the point I was making.
Maybe I can explain it in a different way - when something exists and its looked to be made cheaper - its very rarely made to be better and cheaper.
Usually cheaper means worse - doesnt mean we cant still enjoy it being worse but its very rarely made cheaper and better
Adding value to a service or product is different and great but the mindset of we need to make this product or service cheaper very rarely comes without penalty
Relax Bud. Cambridge Audio makes a very similar player in the CXUHD.
Anthony S it's more about the principle than the player will always be able to get an oppo just won't be any new ones which is bad news for the industry as a whole. the rest is banter and a bit of theatre hopefully for a laugh or 2 :)
There's Cambridge Audio.
ATH3X G they have stopped production as well no shock really
Pursuit Perfect System What?? Guess there's no call for £600 bluray player's.
There's 2020 rumors that Oppo players are back.
I dont believe it but it's a cool if it's true thanks for letting me know
@@PursuitPerfectSystem I don't believe it too but I keep the faith!
John Smith May God listen 👂🏻 to our prayers. What are these rumors exactly?
@@HIFONICSM3 the true I just read on facebook and an forum a couple or guys saying that hear rumors for 2020, I hope so!!!! keep the faith. I don't have one, due is oop and now the price is on scalpers.
Oppo is the best pity they are made in China ! Panasonic will love this ! I will be getting myself a 205 real soon.
You better hurry the F up! if you look on eBay prices are trending upward. I see one going for well over $3500! Ridiculous!
They are not just made in china. They are Owned and Operated by a Chinese company with engineering in California. When these AV companies are Chinese Owned they have immense potential for being very high quality. HiFi Man, Edifier, Fiio and Oppo.
Sony bdp-s790 is better anyway
Please elaborate
There's nothing new under the sun
Kills by Netflix
Not good 😶😶😶
PS4 Pro or Xbox One S blow any bluray play out of the water just by sheer processing power.
LOL Just NO. They use software to virtualize blu-ray decoding. It's nothing like dedicated hardware and firmware. UltraHD BluRay is heavily compressed from Camera bitstream of 509mbyte/s to 12.5 mbyte/s. Maximizing the method of unpacking the compressed video is difficult complex task of decoding. You just can't achieve the same results with software alone.
Oh-Poh, not Ah-Poh. Don’t like it? Contact Oooooppo.
What an ugly unorganized setup
Walter White its the quasimodo of setups. Looks are second to performance buddy and trust me performance is exceptional plus I am changing stuff all the time so need access to everything. not like a normal situation
Mine looks worse but sounds great I'm with you no hate
I like it...looks cool.
Even Frankenstein found a bride!
Pioneer made probably the best blu rays players. Talk pioneer might enter 4k uhd market soon
mohsin ashfaq if only they are gone forever. The irony of the current market.
Panasonic eventually took over the mantle from Pioneer after they departed.
Now it looks like Panasonic makes the next best high end player.
How long before they are a former shadow and LG take over 3 years ??
I class panasonic the best on picture quality, but for everything else oppo has the upper hand. The ub9000 looks impressive though.
mohsin ashfaq I haven't seen it and I am sure it's good and has it's support but the majority of enthusiasts would just buy Oppo well because it's Oppo and they know what they are getting.
Will be interesting if we see a new brand pop up and have a go but I can't see it. If Oppo can't make it pay I doubt anyone else smaller can
The Panasonic ub9000 will have the same build quality as the OPPO and most audio capability. Panasonic service is not as good though. I've tested both the panasonic ub900 and the oppo 203 and for me the panny has the better picture. Sad day though
mohsin ashfaq that's interesting and not a total surprise. Will be interesting to see how my 203 performs once I have done the upgrades mentioned in the video. Good fun to do it regardless
it just a product not a person it's not that serious too me just saying
D Van that's just a bit of a theatre for a laugh or 2 but the underlying message of the video is a serious one - not good sign
OK I understand it was quite hilarious
Stupid title.
Dolby vision will not take off....HDR10 is the shape of the future. Goodbye Oppo. Welcome Samsung Sony LG Panasonic.
Joe Al Well ... what I believe in is....when it comes to enjoying great picture quality out of uhd 4k blu ray. Its more better to spend more on the best 4k led or oled tv you can afford rather than the best 4k player. I used a Samsung ubdm 9500 over my panasonic oled tv. A superb combination indeed.....:)
most new 4K blu Rays are Dolby Vision though. So Dolby Vision has taken off and is becoming the industry standard sadly
Fortunately Oppo has kept on updating their firmware and now supports DV.
Still the best player.
LOL this comment aged badly.
They made there millions and turned there backs on everyone says a lot for there customer service anyway goodlucky if you need anything rerpaired it probably wont get done
Dave30867 they’re still going to honor warranties and offer more upgrades. They’ll still be a company selling phones. Besides they sell extended 4 year warranties. If they didn’t honor that, they would have serious lawsuits.
Dave30867 It is "their" not "there". Word is they will service their products. They have had an excellent track record so far with regards to service.
Well, fortunately their players are extremely well made, so barring any flaws in manufacturing or components the majority of players should function well in to the next decade.
Get over it only a bluray player
Robert Osborne the tone of the video is supposed to be light hearted in jest but the underlying message is an important one. Big name brands who make the best kit pulling out of the market is not a good sign for enthusiasts who want quality.
It was much more than a bluray player if you were serious about music playback. I also have my computer and tv tuner plugged into my BDP-103''s HDMI inputs and use its volume control so that I don't have to spend $2000 on a multichannel preamp/processor that's good enough for music. Cambridge is the only other company that gives me those features.
Sound like a guy that owns a home theater in a box......
#enjoythatexperience
Just bought a 203 to play CDs,,,, I hope I did ok ? Got a ps mod coming.
