mopardave Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Looking at used blue ray players for a theater room i'm setting up. Are these two players any good? Looking for good graphics and sound output, BDP-95 and BDP 103? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Be patient and wait for a 105 or a 105D. Definite upgrade across-the-board. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBPK402 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I just ordered a Panasonic UB820 which supposedly is as good with video as the Oppo 203...new on Amazon $399. It could also workout for a nice backup until you can find a Oppo for the price you want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiva Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 For those hunting for Oppo Blue ray players, AVS Forum is the place you got to go. Often quite a few there up for sale. https://www.avsforum.com/threads/oppo-bdp-103.3228926/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still need to figure out which Klipsch subwoofer and rear surrounds to purchase for this room as well as the new Samsung 65", so looking for used at this point in the oppo player.

Btw, Oppo no longer supports their players, software or otherwise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I don't know what your requirements are for inputs/outputs and other functions. There are a number of models that may meet your needs, so I would recommend that you do some research to whittle down the list. They are all very reasonably priced, and personally I would buy new.

Shiva Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 The question that may be relevant is, are you seeking to play 4K discs? The 103/105 series Oppo's don't play those. You would need the 203 or 205. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TasDom Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Here's an Oppo 103 that is reasonably priced https://www.avsforum.com/threads/oppo-bdp-103.3228926/#post-61326533 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC39693 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 @jimjimbo did Oppo put out a statement saying they won’t do any support? Their site still says to send them an email with information and they will attempt to help? Hmmm, might need a backup plan. @mopardave 4K bluray vs 4K pass through and up scale. I use a 103 for 4K pass through and upscale to 4K Sony TV. I use an external DAC so did not need a 105. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiva Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 The 103 upscales to 4K so they say, but does not play 4K blu-ray discs. The Panasonic mentioned above is a true 4K disc player though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
