I'm wondering if any one knows if the OPPO BDP-80 uses the larger 3 prong power cords? I have a sony BDP-S350 with upgraded c7 power cord now and wondering if I would notice any better picture quality with the OPPO BDP-80 if it uses the bigger 3 prong power cords?
An upgraded cord on any of the Oppo players WILL yield sonic and visual improvement. Even a fairly economical cord upgrade will make a difference you can see and A/B test.
I have the 80. It uses the standard IEC 3 prong cord, not the C7. The cord will not matter in this circumstance, it will be the difference in players. If you use the HDMI output from the Oppo, it is very highly rated. I don't know if it will be better than the Sony on your display but the type of cord will not determine the difference between the two.
