Hi there,
This is my first post. I'm looking to by my first BD player, amongst other home theater equipment. Since I'm a newbie, there is a lot that I don't know/understand. My local HT shop has a Denon 1610 for $399. Is it worth it to spend the extra $100 and order an Oppo? I've never seen an Oppo. In fact, I don't exactly know what I should be looking for in a BD player. I currently own a Pioneer Elite 50" Plasma. I plan to by either a Denon 2310 or a Marantz receiver. I just wired my basement room for 7.1. Speakers are still a conundrum for me. So, as I said, I'm new but I just want to start out right. Thus, what are you're thoughts regarding those two BD players, or what about a cheaper one, such as from Costco? Thanks.
P.S. I tried reading the Denon new release thread but it wouldn't work past page three, so sorry if this topic has already been addressed, I tried to research it.
