I just called them and spoke to the owner there. they are selling the Oppo 93 without any Region Free kit. He claimed that "modifying" this will void the warranty. So how? Even Oppo also not Region Free

Can someone tell me any shop in KL selling Oppo? I try to buy this but cannot find suitable outlet. Reading through the forum indicate nearest in Penang or Singapore. Please help...I belanja teh-tarik....I want to buy next week if possible!

PENANG HI-FI CHOICE used to sell OPPO-93 REGION A+B, but they stop selling it already, heard the profit is low & too many works/communication need.

I own a OPPO 93 region free from USA, it one of the best player around.

Actually it is not difficult to get a region B player now a day, I recommending u guys direct buy one from EUROPE/UK when u travelling, it cost around RM300 only.

Oppo USA does not officially recognise any third-party region-free modification, and therefore their "official" position is that any such modification will void the warranty. This is obviously communicated to all their authorised dealers around the globe as well, and the dealers will likely tell you the same story.

However, this has not stopped Oppo from seriously clamping down on such things, since it obviously helps boost sales of their units. So while CMY may tell you so, there is really nothing stopping you from getting the 3rd-party modification online and just DIY it yourself. From many user experiences, this is not a complicated and difficult process, and no soldering involved, just plugging in a cable on the mod to the PCB board. I believe johnbluraylover posted in his Oppo BDP-93 thread on this forum some guidance on where to get these.

On the other hand, if you choose not to do so yourself and prefer not to void the warranty, then you'll have to get in touch with SLT Tech (as posted by anfieldude above) in Singapore and source it from them. dirtrun and myself bought our Oppo from SLT pre-modified and warrantied by SLT. So we didn't have to DIY the mod ourselves. However, you risk customs and tax if u ask them to ship to you, unless you bring it across the causeway yourself or some other jalan. SLT's contact info is somewhere in my Oppo thread (see my sig below).

ok back on topic.

@ low98944 - thanks for the heads up on amazon uk's toy story trilogy. will keep a lookout for that.

this will probably get drowned out by all the buzz surrounding the BF sales, but i'll post it anyway. just received my copy of The Phantom Of The Opera at the Royal Albert Hall. This is the special 25th anniversary production by Cameron Mackintosh, who was also responsible for the earlier Les Mis anniversary concert.

For fans of POTO and musical-theatre lovers in general, this is another must-get blu-ray. The PQ is great and captures the beautiful staging, costume-design and close-ups of the actors. The audio tracks includes DTS-HD MA 5.1 and as expected, the audio never falters throughout the show, whether it is fully conveying the orchestration or a violin solo. Shut all the doors, close the windows, pull down the curtains and listen to this at reference level (0 dB)!! It will give you goosebumps!

The star of the show, for me, is definitely Ramin Karimloo (The Phantom), the current golden boy of the UK musical theatre scene. I'm a little bias as well, as I watched Ramin performed live as the Phantom at Her Majesty's Theatre in London. My family refers to him as "our Phantom"! lol .... But he is really good ... btw, Ramin played the role of Enjolras (student rebellion leader) in the Les Mis 25th Anniversary production as well.

If you're fan of POTO, this belongs in your blu-ray library.
