I don't have them in the same system. I currently have the BDP-93 in the bedroom system and the PS3 in the basement system. I had the BDP-93 hooked up in the main system for a few weeks (along with a modded BDP-83 - for audio). I'd have to think the BDP-93 would be noticeably better upscaling DVDs. Since I have the generation of PS3 that has the chip which won't let it bitstream to the receiver, I moved my old bedroom player, a Samsung 2500 to the basement system. I also had the Samsung in the main system for a few months before the BDP-83 came out. The Samsung is an excellent DVD upscaler. I thought the BDP-83 was a bit bitter and the BDP-93 was still a bit better than that. I'm not sure video wise for Blu-Rays whether you would notice tons of difference. I can tell you the basement system sounds better with the Samsung 2500 sending the hi-rez audio to the receiver for decoding on Blu-Rays vs. the PS3. My PS3 doesn't see much use of late. I probably will put music on its hard drive at some point and plug it into the Emotiva DAC I got for the secondary basement system
