Oppo Nuforce BDP-93NE


Hi, Has anyone here listened to this new unit? It looks very interesting. Was just waiting to see if any reviewers or Audiogoners have tried it yet? I'm looking at it in place of my Oppo 83se[becuase of the claimed very musical redbook playback on this modded unit[93ne.] Thanks, lloyd

I guess this product is too new. ANyways, I pulled the trigger and ordered a BDP-93NE. It ships on March 31st. I'm taking advantage of the 30-day return policy[I will only be out shipping if the unit fails to impress. I think this is a win, win as I'll know what it does in my system and how it performs against the redbook cd playback of my OPPO 83SE. If I had the chuckles I would have sent my OPPO 83SE in to Modwright for the tube mod...thanks again, lloyd
Yes, I will. I have some audiophile friends dropping in after I've broken it in. One is a Leban guy and the other has Pass Labs. Their cd playbackbacks are Marantz Sacd and ArcamFMJ33, which already showed itself to be more refined and finished in my system compared to my OppoSE.They both have good ears. We'll give it a fair but honest listen, no holds barred. Will I be overwhelmed or underwhelmed? At least it should be interesting. Will let you know what we hear, cheers, lloyd
Well the Nuforce 93SE arrived this pm. . Will give it break-in. But out of the box, it's a keeper. I guess my beloved Oppo 83SE will have to fine a new home before spring ends. More to follow. I think I'll be doing alot o listening in the next few days. Will give an idea of what I think I'm hearing in my room in my system. Do note I have no invested interest in either company. I simply wanted to "hear for myself in my own system", and this was for mainly cd playback with video a bonus. Nuforce has a 30-day return policy. cheers, lloyd
I personally have a 95 with close to 240 hrs on it, it was tough not to go for the Nuforce 93 at the time but the ESS Sabre dac's, balanced outs and build Quality pushed the 95 ahead. The unit replaced a Denon 5900 and out the box it bettered it in my setup.So keep us posted indeed!
