I am kicking myself for not doing an upgrade on my unit. All online sellers seem to be out. Any random listings are gone in 5 minutes.

Are there any brick and mortar stores that carry OPPO that might have a few units left?

thx

    Not that I know of. You might check with NuForce and see if they can do anything.

    Sounds good albeit pricey...so this is essentially an 83-SE further modded?

    Anybody have one of these? I assume this is good value?

    No personal experience, but I have read good things. NuForce developed the SE upgrade for Oppo and their version is a bit "more knocked out". I was thinking that they may still be UG'ing the standard 83's to SE. (They were at one time). Give them a shout.

    Good grief. If that isn't a typo, it's an absolute travesty.

    Nuforce had a couple on their site about three weeks ago, but I have not seen any since. Oppo had a return for cheap as well, that lasted all of a couple hours. There is a 93 reasonably priced on the gon.
