RE: Oppo vs Sony

I did have a Sony 9000ES IMO overated both by Stereophile & HFN &RR, I was misled by both reviews and bought it unheard from a discount retailer only because I could not find a retailer able to demonstrate it. I sold it on with a big loss and unfortunately Nagraboy who I sold it to found it failed just over a year later and was unable to get it repaired, I do agree the 5400ES sounds better than the 9000ES and is far easier to operate. Furthermore the Sony XA5400ES sounds its best as I have posted many times previously when connected to the Sony DA5400ES AV receiver (UK) version, via HDMI then it is better than the Oppo 93 which in turn is no where near as good especially with Blu-Ray audio as the Sony 1000ES.
