It all depends on how well your avr will decode the sound vs. how well the player decodes. It could be some just prefer the way the player decodes vs. their own equipment. Just because the guy has a $6000 player doesn't mean it is as good as the Oppo, just means he spent WAY too much money on that esoteric player ;\)
