Default Premium UHD disc player other than OPPO ?

There is new hope.
Pioneer UDP-LX500 ( search for it )
and also Panasonic UB9000
Will they better than the OPPO 205 ? Let's see.

I need one with HDMI output so I can keep using my DAC to decode Blu-rays and SACDs

I believe that the Oppo 205 is still available at some locations.

There’s the Cambridge Audio CXUHD. It’s a bit pricey (although not by audiophile standards) at $700 list, but it looks very good. Has 2 hdmi outputs and no dac “...for noise reduction and improved audio...”

There’s also the Sony UBP-X800 at $230 list. https://www.sony.com/electronics/blu...etails_default

For those who own OPPO, try Zerozone linear power supply .
The Digital version (no more power feed to DAC board) .
Big improvement on video and audio on HDMI output. No extra heat at all.

I thought that the mods were intended for audio not video. The OP is asking for UHD.

Adding a LPS, changing IEC and internal wires will greatly improve both SQ and PQ.

The upcoming Pioneer UDP-LX800 sounds interesting too.

Tommy.......I agree, the Pioneer UDP-LX800 should be a sterling performer. Good to see Pioneer stepping up to fill the Oppo void.
