Hi,

after having tried a panasonic br player I wonder if the oppo 103d or 105d is still a good investment actually or should I wait for a 4k player ?

Wait for the 4K UHD Blu-Ray players. The Panasonic one is superb plus Oppo have one due for release shortly.

Thread moved.
Please keep the General forum section B&O related.

Harsh Dillen. This is very B&O related as it's the highest quality source to feed a B&O TV! It's probably the most important product for a B&O TV user!

That's right. As b&o doesn't sell any independant player, this question is helpfull for many tv owner.

@Olivsab:

The Oppo is not a good investment as the manufacturing quality is only good on outer parts like the frontplate and the case. The disc drive loading mechanic feels very cheap for this price (Oppo 103)
The Oppo-Players are in general overrated in my opinion and are just overpriced China-Gadget in a shiny package. Even my chinese students in China had not the best opinion when I told them that in Europe Oppo is handled as "high end".

If the new 4K Players will work with your Beovision go for the Panasonic or a Sony.

I 100% agree with you there TWG. My friends in China say exactly the same! Stick with the Panasonic, it'll last you longer than the format ever will!

I didn't say, that it doesn't belong on Beoworld, but this IS a Bang & Olufsen enthusiasts forum, so
we prefer to keep the main forum section about B&O and B&Os products.

The Oppo is the recommended blu-ray player by B&O. They even provide a "B&O version" that has a different start-up screen that was provided for B&O. This is very B&O-related. You are indeed being too draconian as a moderator.
