Pioneer BDP-05FD vs Oppo BDP-83


Hi, I was wondering if anyone has compared these two players? I have owned the Pioneer BDP-05FD for about two years now. I like it a lot. However, I see a lot of rave reviews for the Oppo. It makes me wonder if I might be missing out on something? I am only interested about DVD/Bluray video and audio using HDMI that the Oppo can deliver. I wouldn't be using the analog portion of the Oppo. I don't listen to SACDS or DVDA and I already have a dedicated cd player. I use a Pioneer Elite Plasma screen for my viewing. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

Disk loading time seems like an eternity but that's my only gripe. I went with an all Elite HT to avoid any compatibility issues and it was simply plug and play. The biggest surprise was the SC-07 receiver.
