Well I up graded to the Oppo BDP 95 and right out of the box it was better than the Oppo BDP 83. You have to consider the 83 was all broken in and the 95 didn't have 5 minutes on it.(I run all analog through the unit) Bigger sound stage, better bottom end. I would also like to point out that I have not had any issues with the CD mat at all compared to to oppo 83 as mentioned in another thread.
