What does this mean?Highlights
Quality
I played some reference music and i'm pleased.
It has the best video performance of any standard bluray player on the market, and its audio quality is extraordinary.
Build quality is solid, and the baseline features all work reliably.
Price
$1299 is not cheap but is worth the price.
Packaging/appearance
I'm not sure how cambridge audio is able to get such great sound out of the cxu.
Competitiveness
Excellent video and audio quality--both better than its competitor oppo bdp-105d.
Forget the oppo's, this is the one to own if you want a player that is extraordinarily good sounding on audio discs and is amaz... Read More
And i'm not convinced 4k ultra high definition bluray discs have a future.

Seems hard to believe with all the capabilities of this player streaming apps such as netflix and amazon are not planned.

One reason oppo discontinued the 1xx series players was that mediatek, the vendor for one of the chips in the 105d, ceased production of the chip they were supplying to oppo.

Almost all joni mitchell and grateful dead cd's are hdcd encoded.

And many country artists continue to release hdcd encoded cd's, but they are not always flagged as an hdcd disc.
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Well, the hdcd encoding process adds an additional 4 bits of information to a cd.

The result (imho) equals the sound quality of a sacd (super audio cd).
