There was one guy who posted here saying he can bring Oppo players here cheap. For got who already.

Brother,

what it means oppo 981/983~~~~~?

You've never heard of Oppo?

Here:

http://www.oppodigital.com/

I have asked my friend bought for me also.
Already got that.
Thanks all for the info, it's indeed true...

but mine was the last one, now selling RM550 for the stock they have, but i think still worth it

According to them, RM480 is their below cost selling, but whatever it is, still i think this is the lowest for time being


So for those who bought for RM650 or RM680, this is indeed a bit more than what you should pay for.

Also from this we would know that they won't sell for cheaper in future below than RM480, unless when it's going to be obsolete

The features are stunning,

only one thing does it read even scratched disc like Pioneer DV610
I tested the usual unplayable disc in other DVD player in my Pioneer DV610, it plays exceptionally well! surprisingly

How about Oppo?

It's hard to find here. Like I said, there was someone who said he can bring in Oppo players, I think he posted in this thread somewhere.

About playability, no idea. But it's one of high rated specialist DVD players. They don't make any other products.

Hi Brother,

Tq! for the info, this is the first time i heard this branfd

me too.
Impressed with the features, but only the playability on the scratched disc, or even the ahem dics,
you know lah, good DVD is not good enough if they can't play the thinnest layer ahem discs, many player found problem when playing 'thinner' layer ahem discs due to low cost production

Pioneer DVD seem to do a good job on that, not yet found any discs not playable, even those previously i can't play on Sony or Philip DVD player...

Well,

I got my 981 from our neighbor down under for ard RM1.2k, if not mistaken..

Donno abt scratched discs - why do u nid to play scratched discs n if u do , do u really expect it to play flawlessly?
Ah.. but if u mean d5/9's then ya no prblms .. sum discs tat cant play on my pioneer 270 n 380 can play on de oppo.. wat do you expect from a china based player??

Cheers

Brother! yes , 100% agree with you.

Oppo's not china-based! They're based in Silicon Valley, California.

Who in their right mind would pay 1.2k for a china brand DVD player???

Brother i don't think so, who will spend 1.2k for the china brand DVD player,
what brand is it?

Agree, Oppo is china brand DVD Player?
what i mean china made (although most of the things are china made now)

RM1200, is way out of my budget, considering it's only a DVD Player woh

Trust me ..

Oppo is made in china..

If not mistaken .. de makers are actually a taiwanese/singaporean jt venture but made in China ( They hv an agent in Sg..) their sole purpose is to use gud quality parts tat matters n cheaper parts where it dont so to minimise cost.. Oso they dont use much for media ads .. preferin online sales n word of mouth rvws..

Its a llitle cheaper now - I tink its sub S$400( I bot for 430.. I think..) now cos there is a newer model - 983 wif a new vdo chipset, even better I heard..

BTW.. from ur views.. u all seem to hv it against china made products.. do u know there are sum great hifi stuff cumin from there now.. Shanling to name one.. n a couple of hybrid tubes - I forgot de name liao.. N oso where do u tink ur marantzs, onkyos, lower end denons are made ??

Is there any product that isn't made in China nowadays?

My iPhone says "Designed by Apple in California, USA, Assembled in China".

My PS3, speakers, subwoofers, almost all made in China. So what to do, the least is to look for is the design and engineering part, or at least the brand itself is not from China. (My Onkyo proudly made in Malaysia though. )

*Note: Paradigm speakers and subwoofers are still made in Canada. But it's possible they'll move their production line to China to cut cost, only question is when.

sony dvd players are made in malaysia...and sony also export them back to japan..

when i was in japan 8 years ago...the apartment i was staying..the aircon remote control is made in malaysia..

do u think malaysia made products are better than china or vice-versa..i have no comment on this..

Still not confidents with china product, all guys from the forum still having the discussion on brand famous.

I never trust China brands per se, but I have no choice for Japan/USA/EU/UK brands that are made in China. At least we these well known brands should have good engineering, design and QC, they're manufacturing them in China just to save the cost of labour, etc.
