If my budget was $1500 I would buy the Oppo 83 and spend the rest on a very good power cord. I think the Lessloss DFPC would go very well with this player. Spend the rest on good ic's or hdmi. You could also have the player modified/upgraded and may have yourself a world class player. A $1000 modification could go a long ways with the Oppo but of course this is not everyones cup of tea. I am going the upgrade route with the Oppo.
