Oppo 83 SE wich would be best for my system vs 83

Hi

I would like to know if anyone can share with me, if the SE will be a noticable differece, or marginal over the 83.

I have a Arcam 300 reciever, BDP400 Mirage Sub, Allisons fronts , center and rear speakers. Above average. I'm using the Cambriddge -Azur 540D DVD player, actually very good picture and sound is good, not excellent.( playes NTS & Pal)

I don't need to play SACD or CD, just DVD.
and I want to use the Audio outs to the Arcam.

Question: Will I really notice the Audio sound worth spending the extra $400 or so over the 83R?

I actually not trying to save the $400, just want to know if this makes quality audio sence?

Thanks
peter

Do the analog outputs of any source device give the best audio/picture quality?

I had always thought that HDMI will output the highest bandwidth and quality of signal?!

Kal,

Just to clarify, (please excuse my noobness)so having the audio coming from the 7.1 analog outputs will have a higher quality signal than using HDMI?

This would be news to me and I have capabilities for both in my current set-up. I just thought that the simplicity of using HDMI, and the newer technology advantages, would trump the old 7.1 analog outputs. If using the 7.1 analog outputs for audio, and HDMI for video, would allow the best sound quality, I will need to re-wire my HT accordingly!
