i have sony DVP-NS72HP (upconvert to 1080p) and TV is Pioneer 6010 1080p.

After owning this Sony player for a while, i think i need another upconvert dvd player which can provide better picture quality. I don't care about SACD/DVD-A.

So, which Oppo player do you recommend? 980 or 981?

983 seems to be a good player, but at $400, i think i can do better.

thanks very much
