Maybe not as simple, but functionally more direct. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not exactly possible or correct for me to make a direct comparison between the two as they are located in two different rooms, with different lighting situation‘s, and on different televisions. Otherwise, I will say that they are both excellent and meet my needs perfectly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can buy new for under $500, so fits the budget nicely. The ub820 had 2 hdmi out’s, so why can’t I run and hdmi out to the tv and another out to the marantz? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have decided on the Panasonic player as what i want. UB820, but i see there is also a UB450 or 420. I will only be using this player for movies in a theater room using a AVR 7.1, so the audio needs to be top notch as well. Think i'll start a new thread on this. Thanks guys 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiva Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Over on AVS, 2 ads for the Oppo 203 just came up for sale. Around $1200 per. An Oppo 95 for $500 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could also workout for a nice backup until you can find a Oppo for the price you want. The picture quality of the Panasonic is incredibly good on my LG OLED 4K 77". I sold my 203 for more than I paid for it used. The only thing I'm missing is the ability to play SACD's (5.1 and 2 channel), I only have a few dozen of those, so I have a cheap Sony 700 to take care of that in another input. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBPK402 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 The UB820 looks to be very nice. The UB9000 looks even nicer, but out of my cost range. I also see a 420 and a 150.I read somewhere that the 9000 and 820 have identical video...the 9000 has better audio than the 820 (I believe the better audio is for stereo audiophile use(.Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
