OPPO BDP-83 audio output question


Hi. I'm interested in the OPPO as an all-in-one digital transport. For HT use, I have to run the 5.1 analog outputs, as my pre/pro doesn't have HDMI. For 2 channel use, however, I plan to use the HDMI out to feed an HDMI audio de-embedder to in turn feed my DAC. Will the OPPO support both analog and HDMI audio outputs simultaneously? Thanks.

Does anyone here know whether the bass management in the BDP-83SE (or Marantz or Denon Blu-ray Universal players, for that matter) is consistent among all the formats it will decode and play? If I decide to buy one I will only use the analog connections to my system for audio and let the player decode everything.

However, I remember reading that earlier DVD-based universal players were often criticized for having inconsistencies in this regard and it took some time for the manufacturers to get it right. Is there any data on this issue for these players that I may have missed?
