    China, like everything else.

    Go for the BDP-83SE for the best audio performance.

    What are you looking at?? As far as I can tell, they only make two models currently, the BDP-83 which will play darn-near anything, and the BDP-83 Special Edition which plays the same sources but is optimized for audio output to a stereo system and uses special DACs.

    Designed for both home theater viewers and music listeners, it plays DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD (SACD) and standard CD with excellent video and audio performance in addition to Blu-ray Discs.

    I don't think there's a single Blu-Ray player made that's not backwards compatible with DVD.

    If you go to Oppo's site (Heather provided the link in an earlier post) and read the specifications on the various players, the first point of information listed is compatible disc types.

    Oppo Digital is based in Mountain View CA, where all engineering, design, testing and sales take place. It is owned by BBK China, a massive electronics manufacturing conglomerate, who builds the players to Oppo specs. BBK also builds players for other sellers and a large selection of consumer electronics.

    http://www.oppodigital.com/blu-ray-b...omparison.aspx

    The BDP-SE is built for customers who rely on pure analog processing and amplification.

    Oppo has no dedicated sales or marketing staff or budgets, and relies solely on word of mouth and limited online/industry advertising. They are wizards at finding the maximum performance in mid-priced hardware. Their primary goals are performance and customer satisfaction. All products come with a 30-day no-questions-asked money back guarantee of satisfaction.

    Oppo is an American company but I'm sure most if not all product is made off- shore in the "usual places". I own two of their DVD /"everything" (971 and 981) players and am quite happy with them.
