Amazing Upgrade for Oppo 93/103 and CA Players

There are plenty of modders who do full service on the Oppo players. But I have come across an amazing upgrade that can be done by anyone in 5 minutes.

Dr Lee Jaehong is based in South Korea and makes a replacement linear power supply for the Oppo and Cambridge Audio Blu-ray players.

You just take out the 5 screws for the old SMPS, and drop the new LPM in. Nothing difficult. I actually have a Cambridge Audio BD751, and the upgrade was pretty dramatic for audio and video, in every aspect.

Apparently many are saying this power supply in the Oppo103 takes it past the level of 105, and you get all round better video quality as a bonus.

And let's assume the warranty is voided.

Faint heart n'e'r won fair maiden.

I voided my Oppo 103 warranty before I ever received the unit.

The linear power supply is 5 screws and some plugs. You can always.... ahem, swap the old power supply back in if you have to.

Agisthos, thanks for this! I find it amazing and amusing that the initial response of posters here was to snark and snipe.

I'll definitely consider this.

I can suggest another DIY mod, that works amazingly well:

Very easy to install, completely reversible, and a significant audio and video improvement for my Oppo 103.
