Voilà peut être une nouvelle réjouissante pour les personnes qui cherchent un lecteur Haute-Définition complet pour un tarif raisonnable.
Oppo, connu notamment pour ses lecteurs de dvd particulièrement performant, vient de dévoiler un peu plus d'informations sur son premier lecteur Blu-ray.
Appelé BDP-83, il a tout pour plaire : déjà.. Profile 2.0 (comme quoi, ça existe), une sortie Hdmi 1.3 1080p24, une compatibilité avec tous les formats audio HD et même une compatibilité avec les SACD et DVD-Audio.
Vous y rajoutez les traitements et processeurs fidèles à la marque et un design plutôt sympatique avec façade en alu brossé, vous obtenez alors un joli petit objet.
Enfin, si nous vous disons que son prix devrait être situé entre $499 et $599, cela devient carrément intéressant. Reste à voir ce que ça donne avec notre diffuseur. Pour cela, il faudra encore un peu patienter car la date de sortie est prévue pour le premier trimestre 2009 aux US.
Voici le mail reçu aujourd'hui de la part du groupe :
Dear Richard,
Thank you for signing up to receive information about our upcoming OPPO BDP-83 Blu-ray Disc Player. We appreciate your interest, and would like to update you on the current development status of this exciting new product.
One of the major design goals for the BDP-83 is to deliver first-class video quality for both Blu-ray and DVD. We based and expanded upon our top-of-the-line DV-983H up-converting DVD player and fully utilize the unparalleled performance of the VRS by Anchor Bay video processing solution. You can expect all the high-end video features including Source Direct for DVD and Blu-ray, high definition HDMI scaling, Edge and Detail Enhancement options, and 1080p24Hz output for both Blu-ray and DVD.
We did not stop at just video performance. We further refined the audio stage, including the addition of discrete stereo outputs and increasing the power and efficiency of the power supply. For SACD playback, the BDP-83 supports direct DSD over HDMI and DSD-to-analog without any PCM conversion, a very unique feature.
With the BDP-83, we intend to release a full-featured universal Blu-ray Disc player that supports BD Profile 2.0 (BD-Live), DVD, SACD, DVD-Audio, Dolby TrueHD, and DTS-HD Master Audio. As of this writing, the BDP-83 supports BD Profile 1.1 (BONUSVIEW), DVD-Video, SACD, and bitstreaming of Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. Progress is being made on a daily basis as our engineers work diligently around the clock to further enable DVD-Audio, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio onboard decoding, and BD Profile 2.0.
The BDP-83 is currently undergoing an extensive and thorough Beta Test Program. We greatly appreciate all the feedback from our beta testers, as without their hard work and extraordinary attention to detail, the BDP-83 would not be the high quality product that our customers have come to expect from us.
As many of our customers eagerly anticipate the release of the BDP83, we are contemplating a "BDP-83 Early Adoption Program" in late December or early January. This program will make available a limited number of units so you can purchase and experience the current implementation of the BDP-83's feature set, with the ability to download firmware as new features become available. The estimated price for the BDP-83 is around $499 to $599.
OPPO Digital is a consumer-oriented company that listens carefully to customer opinions and values their feedback. If it were not for our customers' feedback and support, OPPO would not be where we are today. At OPPO we strive to provide our customers with quality products reinforced by exceptional customer service.
Please email to BDP-83@oppodigital.com if you have any questions and comments, or simply reply to this email.
Best Regards,
Customer Service
