Blu-ray Battle: Marantz BD8002 vs BD7004

.
Get the BD8002. It has the REALTA processor that makes for a stunning picture. Only the new BD9004 at $6,000 has the REALTA processor, the rest of the new Marantz lineup doesn't have it. The BD8002 can be had brand new for about $1k or less. I paid $2k for mine and I still consider it a steal. Especially now becuse now if you want that same REALTA processor, you've got to fork over $6k for the new flagship model. If picture quality is what you're after, this one's a no-brainer.

Congrats on your purchase. It will only get better. On some movies, your jaw will drop because the images will be so vivid....you'll forget about the plot. Enjoy.

Ok, I just couldn't resist saying this, but, 'I TOLD YOU SO!'

I knew you would fall in love with this player.

Sakahar, have you tried your Reimyo dac with the BD 8002 as a cd player? I'm curious as to how it would sound.
