Blu-ray players

Main article: OPPO Digital

Oppo's first universal Blu-ray Disc player was the BDP-83.[27][28][29][30]

The BDP-93 was released in 2010, featuring 3D compatibility and dual HDMI signal output.

This was followed by the BDP-95 whose video performance is identical in all respects with the BDP-93, but with an improved analogue audio output section.[31]

The BDP-103 and BDP-105 models were released near the end of 2012, featuring dual HDMI signal input in addition to dual HDMI signal output. T

The BDP-103D was released in October 2013. This new model is the first Blu-ray player worldwide featuring Darbee Visual Presence technology.

At the end of 2016 Oppo introduced their first 4K/UHD BluRay player, the 203. Backwards compatible (as with previous machines), the 203 supports playback of Ultra High Definition discs, along with HDR (high dynamic range) and Dolby Vision capability.

This was followed in 2017 by the 205 - similar to the 203 but, as with previous "5" designated players, had added audiophile features.

Headphones & amplifiers

In 2014 OPPO released a number of high end headphones and amplifiers. The flagship PM-1 and PM-2 headphones along with the HA-1 desktop amplifier have been heavily promoted in the audio community. One blogger declares the PM-2 is "near to perfect".[32]

Released in 2015, the HA-2, was a portable version of the HA-1 amp/DAC which featured a battery pack option as well as a stitched leather casing. The phone played music in real-time to the HA-2 (via the included Android or iOS micro USB cable, or USB cable if from PC). It also can be charged using an included "rapid charger" charging kit. The battery pack feature can only be used simultaneously while the HA-2 is used to play music if the playing (source) device is an Apple iOS device. In October 2016 an updated version was released with a new DAC chip and now named HA-2SE. Otherwise it was the same as the HA-2[citation needed]
