Oppo Ceasing production


Just visited Oppo's web site.  They are ceasing production of all their products and will only do warranty work and firmware support for their products.  They no longer have the resources to manufacture new products.  Didn't see this one coming.

It's a Chinese owned. Although operating independently it's finances come from China. I think the decision has more to do with Chinese retaliation against tariffs than anything else.

This was an E-mail response to me from Oppo just a couple weeks ago. It made no mention of completely going out of business. Strange and sad.


Bill,


Unfortunately we have stopped the manufacturing of the Sonica DAC and the HA-2SE as we were finding that the cost of manufacturing such precision products and the sales volume were just not in a good enough equilibrium to continue their manufacturing.


So there are no current plans on manufacturing additional Soncia DAC and HA-2SE products.


Best Regards,

Very strange, but not unexpected given the elimination of features in the latest 200 series of players including direct access apps. Purchased my BDP105 for 1) performance to $ ratio, 2) multi-format disk play, 3) streaming and 4) two video outputs (I have a small 7” monitor at my listening position). It seems the parent company, BBK Electronics, is focusing on smart phones, MP3 & 4 players and other consumer and industrial electronics. For whatever reason, BBK didn’t sell the brand and continue as a third party manufacturer.
allenone973, is that NIB bdp-205 still available? If so, I’m very interested. Please PM me to let me know. Thank you in advance....
