Hi Spiff,

Here's what JC says about the BD55 compared to his PS3:

"Reproduction of Blu-ray DVDs is better; color saturation - details. Reproduction of standard DVDs is also better even better than the Oppo 970.

PS3 has no analog outputs and the built-in decoder of the BD-55 gives out a phenomenal sound from the latest codecs. This last feature really was a "must" for my setup."
