How good are "Oppo" players?

I'm in Australia, and have heard quite a few good things about Oppo universal disc players, but they're not easy to find here.
They seem capable of playing just about everything, and I want a HDCD/SACD capable player.
But how do they SOUND? Are the DAC's, and other components, up to true high fidelity standards, or are they just a compromise?

See a review of an Oppo player in the latest edition (May '07) of Stereophile magazine, they seemed to be very impressed for the price. They recommended using an outboard DAC if you want to get closer to an "audiophile" quality level.

Almost 100% of Oppo's sales are online direct from their California address so you should be able to have it shipped to Australia, unless there would be a voltage issue. They could probably advise you on that. Link here:
