Kuro...drool...

Went ahead with the 83 from agon. Was able to get seller down to 385 with shipping and pay pal, I'm happy. Looking forward to checking out on the g25.

Thanks steve, just what I wanted to know.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I am in the market for a bluray player that upscaled standard DVD well, and by all accounts the oppo 83 is the best (apparently even better than the 93 in regards to DVD upscaling). I was set on going with a panny bd85 which is supposed to be very good for bluray playback and DVD, but all the network features i already have with my panny g25 viera cast, and oppo is apparently extremely high quality as a bluray and DVD player. Also, being a universal player and upgradeability to the se version may allow me to combine my video and audio rig with the oppo as my source. My question is how much is a reasonable price for a used oppo 83? Audiogon sells them very quick, but the ones remaining are around 400. The panny bd85 can be had for less than $200, and though its video playback is considered to be very good, its not an oppo, and I am trying to determine if its worth it to go for the oppo vs. the panny.

It's no longer a custom

Ye I probably wouldn't bother with a sound bar, it is convenient and mine came with a wireless sub and was free and part of the special package amazon had going.

My panasonic came free with the plasma, it's better than the internal speaker that's for sure. Works well for standard viewing.

Madden iPad. Thank you.

Pc compatible? I thought it was just MAC

Is anyone having issues with iPad printing? My ipad doesnt recognize my wireless network printer. Edit: never mind, just saw my HP printer isn't one of the AirPrint compatible printers.

Sorry guys, won't be able to make it. Variety show, three of my groups are performing. Have fun!

Nice review man. Should post it on HF so the reviewers can see how it should be done. Very clear and concise, I really got a nice idea of how it sounds sans not actually listening to the thing. Would love to check it out sometime, though I bet my ears are so used to the hp1000's it probably won't be my cup of tea.

Woo hoo! Have a good one!

Yup the f1 is super picky. But when mated with the right speaker aka Lowther the results are amazing. Still pondering the f1j upgrade but damn NP is asking for $500 and several weeks (which I acknowledge is commensurate with the labor probably involved)

I'm stuck too. It literally is near the very end but it won't move any further on the iPad status bar. iTunes is stuck too

Yup, just a nice implementation of your standard SET 2a3. As for specs, Craig would be the one, if he cares to divulge. Should be plenty fine for the LCD-2. I would recommend getting underneath the amp and changing the output taps to 16 ohms for a bit more power transfer, but doubt you would hear a sonic difference.

Anyone know whats up with the delayed 4.2update? Last I wad was they delayed it due to a bug causing the wifi to stop working.

Canjam was one of the most enjoyable and thoroughly fulfilling things I have ever done. To be a part of something that brought people together is truly special. It would be a very sad day if there were no more independent canjams, but I obviously understand it takes a few devoted/somewhat crazy individuals to step up and unfortunately we all have lives that may not permit us to step up. Reading your comments also kind of conveys that it is unlikely new leadership will arise from the current generation of huddler fi. Me sad.

No, not really, because he is acknowledging that posty is awesome.

Should have had one already. Just ask and they will send you one.

Jp I think I am with dusty on this, but you posting those vendors implies that you feel our issue is with vendors not being represented, which you can clearly see why a vendor would be left out. The issue is the apparent lack of respect for headphone audio from a coverage standpoint, and for the, to clump all headphone audio as Ray Smuels is sort of condescending. If headphone audio was important to them they would take the time for another paragraph or two with maybe another picture or two. I don't think dusty wanted or expected some lavish spread but merely a show of respect from a media standpoint that headphone audio is legitimate.

Yes. (...not Really anything I can add, sums it up right there...)

I would still take that stereophile coverage over the 6moons shill I mean meet impressions of canjam.

Sorry for crappy pic, but in real life the lines and edges are smooth, the older version was somewhat jaggedy.
