>>And how the Blu-Ray quality is compared to the Sony PS-3.<<

I currently don't own an Oppo (current BR=Panny), but I can safely say that they're head over heals better in picture quality than ANY BRplayer I've owned/seen. AFAIC, if you intend to calibrate your HDTV using BR/HDMI output - the only player for the job is an Oppo. Otherwise, you`ll not only get an incorrect calibration with the HDMI inputs, but every other input, based on that cab. will also be compromised.

To my dismay, every non-Oppo players I've used, even top of the line models from samsung, panasonic and sony, all showed signs of incorrect color spaces (esp.green/luminance), and far worse - ALL - showed some form of edge enhancement-distorion (ex: like too high a sharpness setting). Some of these issues could be minimized thru certain BR menu settings, but never entirely eliminated.

Every Oppo I've witnessed, had no such issues. With an Oppo, I could properly calibrate a HDTV thru HDMI and every other input would benefit. (This is why these badly conceived, little experienced `geek-squad` type calibrations, which use HDMI for cabbing, tend to ALWAYS fail when using certain test patterns with the HDTV native mode inputs).

If you're going to use the analog outputs, skip the 103 and try the 105 - Dave_K 09:53:25 03/16/15 (0)
