In Reply to: RE: The Oppo BDP-83 is the best bang, PERIOD. A truly superb player. posted by GHM on September 07, 2009 at 03:50:10
I received mine last Wednesday. I've been playing dvd's and Blu-Ray discs with it since. I'm no expert, but there is definitely much to like here. Maybe it is the way the player arrives, packed with care in its custom shipping/storage carton. The simplicity of its setting up. The very nice self illuminating remote. Picture quality is good. My dvd collection is looking a bit better on this unit than on any previous dvd player/recorder. Blu-Ray disks, what few I have, look terrific on my Samsung LN328W (lcd flat panel purchased 3 yrs ago). No troubles so far.
Plus, it's outer shape/style could fit in with the components on the audio rack. Although I keep my audio stuff separate from the video stuff. Just saying, they styled it with a classy appearance.
It came with a couple of disks. One is a Spears & Munsil test/evaluation disk. The other is an audio calibration disc/hd music sampler from Aix Records. I haven't broken the seal on either.

Follow Ups:
The Spears & Munsil disc is a video calibration disc which is essential. Use it ASAP to set up your video display optimally, it takes about 20 minutes and you will then have optimal video quality.
did that yesterday.
Based on that test disc, I made an adjustment to the sharpness control which was set too high.
Other than that I did not see anything, that I could adjust, to improve the screen.
It looks pretty good to my inexperienced eyes.
