Hi, I'm getting a used dvd player if you had to choose between the Oppo DV-970HD or OPDV971H which would you reccomend. Thanks really need help with this one....
Those are both really nice upconverters but, for that price, why not just go with the Toshiba HD-A3? It works as an excellent upconverter and you can also watch HD DVD's. The only drawback to the Toshiba HD-A3 is that it doesn't support DivX. I don't know if you're here in the states but, Circuit City has them for 100 dollars right now, darn good buy! Update: Ahhh, didn't notice that you mentioned it was used. As I said, those are both nice players, I guess really price would play a big determining factor. If I had to choose between the two, I'd go with the DV-970HD because it has HDMI opposed to DVI. Also, looks like the older model doesn't have the memory card slot or a usb port.
UPDATE For Everyone: They are NOT selling the Toshiba HD Dvd Player for $100.00. I went ther online and it is $149.95. I called a Representative that said those might be In Store Promotions she did not know. So If you think you are going to get One online for $100.00 You will not. Just wanted to let everyone know because I don't have a Circuit City in my town and got excited over nothing.
