High Quality Universal Player??


I’m interested in a disc player for CD, SACD, and cinema DVDs, Blue-Ray.

It MUST have equal or better sound quality than my current Cal Audio HDCD player.

Ideas? How about the Cambridge Audio Azur 651BD Universal Blu-ray/SACD/DVD/CD Player?

or the newer 751? Also, what is the difference between the 751 and 651?

I’d laos like to buy form a company large enough to stay in business for a while :)

It depends how resolving you want the player to be. The 103 is very nice for video, in fact the same as the 105. However, the 105 has a significantly better audio section and that is what the price reflects. The 105 sounds very nice; it ousted a Cambridge Audio 840C in my system. It was no small improvement. The Oppo sounds much better than the 840C. I have not heard the 851C, so I can't help there. I can tell you the video was much much better than the Marantz BD7003 Bluray player I had at the time. Very easy to see the improvement. I have not seen a Cambridge Audio CXU vs. Oppo 105D review, but would be interested.
