The BDP-83 is already "good enough" for HDMI use as it is. I really don't see/hear any obvious flaws of its making, I mean of the type that annoy me. I am long past the point of looking for (my idea of) perfection. Manufacturers sell a new version of "perfection" every time they have a new model. I have settled for a version that means "pleasant enough", gives me a lot more time to use the damn gear :)The downside to not modding is I spend way more $$$ consuming media than I did when just dicking around with stuff. But when something needs attention to be acceptable to me, and already shows promise, then I'm game. For instance my HDMI pre-pro needs some attention...
Edit: hmmm, so you think the Oppo could be leaking some DC on the high side? You know, it did kind of sound like that... I have also heard a similar noise at somebody else's house when they had a switching supply that assymetrically loaded the transformers (I forget how). I have plugged tons of different stuff into my BP and never heard this before, I think the Oppo was only consuming 18W at the time. Anyway, it looks fine enough with regular power.
