Oppo Ceasing production


Just visited Oppo's web site.  They are ceasing production of all their products and will only do warranty work and firmware support for their products.  They no longer have the resources to manufacture new products.  Didn't see this one coming.

I'm going to be a contrarian here. People say physical media is dead but just look at the resurgence of vinyl. My sense is, that CD transports are the "digital turntables" of the future. I just traded my Ayre multi disc player for a dedicated transport. Of course, I type this as my 103D plays in the background and I just ordered a new disc from Amazon. I can stream as well but my sense is that physical media is not dead by any means.
Hey now! gdhal,

The Grateful Dead invented peer-to-peer trading. Not a bad thing at all.

Related to Oppo- there are a plethora of their spinners in the secondary marketplace. Still plenty to go around for those interested.
Happy Listening!

Case in point: I offered to give my son (36 years old) a high end integrated amp, high end speakers, turntable and cd player (total cost of equipment over 10K) with the only stipulation he uses it and doesn't sell it.
I'm only 57 and open to adoption.

Any thoughts that the Sony Universal Player cut into their disc player market?
