I didn't say the Oppo is restricting dynamic range. I said it is a bit less explosively dynamic than the BDP-09, even via HDMI. I don't know why and haven't bothered to investigate further because it's damned good the way it is. The dynamic *range* via HDMI is likely identical -- i.e. not dropping bits. But the jump factor is a shade less propulsive. For the difference in cost, not a criticism, just an observation. The Oppo is good enough I am considering moving it to my main system for the simple reason that the BDP-09 doesn't play SACD and DVD-A, and I have more room for an additional universal player for audio in my secondary system. -Phil
