Should I sell my Oppo 205?


Please help me decide. Is there a logical reason for current prices on used Oppo 205? I bought mine few years ago brand new for around $1500. I've hardly used it since, maybe 2-3 Blue rays per year max. I have a pretty good collection of blue rays 4k movies. My questions:

1. Is there nothing else on the market to compete with this relatively old player?

2. What is so special about this oppo ?

3. Is it likely to become more in demand in the future?

I have a BDP-105 and have asked myself the same question. I don’t use physical media nearly as much anymore, but I still like to have the option. I don’t use it as a DAC or streamer anymore either. Most of the current sub $1k players I saw only have toslink or analog out. My DAC only has one toslink input and that’s for the smart TV. To use it as a transport I’d really want a coax out. Some of the Sony players I saw have a coax, but I just don’t think it’s worth the hassle.
