Oppo Blu-Ray Players in 2023


Hello. I am new here and looking for some advice. I would like to start listening to CDs again and I am curious if the Oppo BDP-83 and BDP-93 are still decent as players and/or transports in 2023. I have seen lots of information from buy a $10 dvd player, get a PlayStation 1, or invest in transport only device. I have both those Oppo players sitting on a shelf since my movie collection moved to 4k over the years. It would be great to reuse some old gear if it still can provide quality music. These are not the SE versions and are bog standard launch models. 

Apologies in advance if I am a bit stupid. I sold off all my CD's over a decade ago and so getting back into this has been eye opening. I am doing my best. Thank you and take care.

Why???  Especially since you said you’ve already sold off all your CDs?  Just stream through Qobuz and be happy.  What am I missing here?

My Oppo 103 and 105 play CD very well and stream Tidal also...lots of super cheap CD’s available these days...just try it since you already have them !!! Some prefer CD.  and sometimes it's just easier to put in a CD rather than stream a single CD

Hi, @soix. Just for fun. CDs are cheap and plentiful. I enjoy collecting movies and I like scanning the shelf for something to watch. I think it would be fun to do again for CD's. I have Amazon HD and Tidal and they are great and super convent, but there is something in owning a physical thing, at least for me. And with Sony yanking movies from PS5 owners I always worry about losing access to digital media.
