In need of a new bluray player lost without oppo now what ?

Just want to spend in the $500.00 area for a 4k Blu-ray player, I had an Oppo 103 and want to upgrade to 4k.

Any thoughts on Panasonic DP UB820 player or the Samsung UBD M9500.

A recommendation would be appreciated.

thank you

I've read some great reviews one on sound & vision magazine for the

Pioneer udp lx500 which is $999.00.

axmeman,

the reason I am considering the Samsung UBD M9500 player is because of my bright family room I decided to get the Samsung q90 tv series.

I am replacing my Samsung plasma tv for 4k.

Because the Panasonic has Dolby vision and the Samsung TV doesn’t . I thought that the Samsung player paired with a Samsung TV both support HDR10 might be beneficial in some ways.

thank you

I’m leaning on the Panasonic DP UB820 it had some pretty good reviews.

thanks for the help?

The Sony UBP-X1100ES was my second choice, I saw the reviews they are very good.
thanks

Coming from having Oppo for the last 8 years about, it was difficult to pick a player that I would be happy with, After tons of reviews, I bought the Panasonic DP-UB820-K and I have to say so far I’m pretty happy with it.
For music I activated the Analog stereo on Audio in the set up menu and was able to get analog stereo witch I like.
also bought the Samsung qled 65" q90r tv, the two work great so far so good.
thanks again guys!

The reason why I went with the Panasonic is because it supports HDR+10 and the Sony does'nt, the Samsung tv supports HDR
