Re: Oppo 981H or Pioneer DV 610
Thanks! Budget is flexible.
The Oppo 981H having a Frouddja-based chip, does that go well with DLP projectors? I read in places that it causes big problems with macroblocking. Can anyone verify this?

If you have budget then for pic quality 981 is much better than the 610. It does not have component out though. If on the other hand you want excelent audio capabilities as well then go for 980

Re: Oppo 981H or Pioneer DV 610
Audio is not on the top of my priority, so I would go for the Oppo 981H. The only thing that is holding me back is that the 981H has a Frouddja chip for its upscaling and it is said to produce big macroblocking issues with DLP projectors.

Re: Oppo 981H or Pioneer DV 610
Well, I wrote to the Oppo people and they recommended the 980 instead. Now I am tempted to go for the 980 from hkflix.com. However, can anyone update me how it looks (picture quality) vis-a-vis the Pioneer DV610, which can be bought for 6.5 in grey.
TIA

Re: Oppo 981H or Pioneer DV 610
Have only seen the 983 in action and I liked what I saw very much. Guess that rates all Oppo's very high for me. Anyways I would assume it would be better than the Pio both in terms of audio and video. Will wait for actual 980 users to confirm though. But IMHO you cannot go wrong with an Oppo and so do go for one albeit any model based on your requirements.

Thanks!
Now to add some more to the confusion, what about the XD-E500? What about this? Compared to the 980H. Last edited by John; 4th March 2009 at 07:43 AM.
