jimjimbo Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 I'm sure this has been covered previously at some point in time, but technology is always changing..... Would like some recommendations please for a Blu Ray player that meets the following criteria: 1. $750 or less 2. Analog audio outputs 3. Smart apps, to include Spotify 4. Excellent build quality 5. HDMI input, as well as outputs, obviously Would very much prefer the opinion of those that have experience with a particular model. I have done tons of research already, but am still not ready to write the check on any one unit...... If you would prefer to PM me, that's fine too. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baron167 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Samsung BD-J6300 3D Wi-Fi Blu-Ray Player FWIW, I have used this model (for 3 years plus), I've tried the apps, but they're clunky. It's not bad for playing Blu-Rays, but does not have analog out. I would recommend NOT getting it. Unfortunately Oppo's are ridiculously expensive on the used market.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 I have an Oppo 105D, but it is not moving from it's current configuration. Oppo's on board apps were only very minimal anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC39693 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Jim, other than Oppo, are there any that have both the HDMI input AND analog output you want? ESP if you want balanced connections? I am interested in the answer as I was going to buy an Oppo 203 literally the day they pulled the plug and haven’t done anything as yet. My guess is your 105D is maybe the best bet... get a twin? The 103 model comes up frequently but anything above that is rare in Canada and the 203/5 are way expensive. I’ll watch with interest.

Willne1 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Panasonic DP-UB820 gets good reviews and has analog outputs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Songer Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Oppo isn’t making blue-ray players any more as far as I know. I love mine - it’s built like a tank 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
