Is OPPO worth the inflated price?

I own the 205 and am pleased with it. An Equitech 2Q and some MIT conditioning enhanced its performance significantly, which indicates with good clean power it performs significantly better than most users will ever experience. I’m using Spectral amp and Pre and ref level MIT cabling. I think value now can only be ascertained by considering what you can/will use it for and what it would cost to get comparable performance with other available units. I find it’s upscaling valuable as I enjoy opera on DVD and there are plenty of DVd’s available and only few Bluray. I will use it’s 4K abilities as I’m shopping for a new TV. FWIW. 

Interesting that I’ve heard no complaints about the 205 breaking down. And,again, good ac power conditioning allows one to hear what the Oppo 205 can sound like. I’ve been very pleased with mine. Another thought might be the maturity of the dac development and the unit in the 205 ..

@junzhang10 .  That gives them a real way of comparing. Very good. 

@uberwaltz . Unless you’re possibly using a very old Pioneer receiver - from which everything sounds lush and mellow :)

@uberwaltz. Glad your sense of humor is in great condition : re $130 Pioneer ;)
