Someday my CRT will die... You do realize that yours is now destined to be the last working CRT on the planet.

The upconversion of that Denon won't be able to compete with the Oppo bpd-83. At this point, I have to say that I really don't care about upconversion. My DVD purchases have gone way down. When I want to be impressed, I'm watching Blu-ray. The PS3's scaling is fine for me if I feel the Denon doesn't cut it.

Oh.... I understand now. I was going to suggest that you just buy one of the Oppo SD players, because they are all good, adn cheap, but it would seam that Oppo no longer makes SD players.
I also have an Oppo 970. As soon as I buy a new TV for the loft (where the 970 is being used), I will not need the 970 and can send it to you if you pick up the shipping costs. It might be a couple months before I buy the TV though..... I just paid for my allotments from Peter Michael and Vineyard 29 and am cash poor.

That's quite generous of you, Michael. Let me know if/when you're ready for this. Thank you!

Peter's that guy who asks what the bids are on the Price is Right and then bids $1 higher than the highest bidder.

The PS3's scaling is fine for me if I feel the Denon doesn't cut it. If you have a PS3, they why do you want the Denon to begin with? The PS3 streams Netflix, plays DVD's, Blu-ray's, Games, etc. In my mind the Denon would be a step down.

The only thing the Denon really has going for it over the PS3 Slim, is DVD-A and SACD compatibility.
