OPPO BDP-103D Audiocom Signature

OPPO BDP-103D Audiocom Signature player is a high-end universal Blu-ray player designed for the most demanding user and extracts the full measure of performance from video, digital audio (input and HDMI + Optical and coaxial outputs) and analogue audio.

The Audiocom edition differs significantly from the OPPO 103D by using a custom linear power supply, multiple regulated power supplies, it utilizes internal AC purification, incorporates an ultra-low jitter clock system, with circuitry housed in a quiet mechanical and electrical environment.

It benefits from a custom linear power supply which uses a multiple array of low ESR capacitors to reduce power supply impedance (ESR) several times that of conventional large, low ESR capacitors. A massive toroidal transformer with 3 separate windings provide independent power supplies for video and analogue circuitry. Two, discrete Schottky rectifier boards replace conventional bridge rectifiers for the main board power supplies providing high speed and zero recovery time, a clear advantage for video processing. Low noise Linear Technology regulators bypassed with OSCON capacitors provide clean power to the video board ensuring a pure, highly accurate digital video signal and purest HDMI sound.

Integrated AC purification is used in the main power supply. This is not a conventional mains conditioner or filter, but uses Quantum purification to remove noise not possible with traditional methods. It also reduces nonlinearities between the transmission speed of low and high frequencies improving time and phase alignment.

In a similar way that clock jitter causes errors in sound, it also causes data related errors in video. There are as many as 4 clocks used inside the OPPO players, the most important of these is the clock for the main core processor. Here we have adopted a new 77 Femtosecond clock (0.077 psec) with +/- 0.5ppm stability, the most accurate main processor clock in any universal Blu-ray player. With this new clock video has an unprecedented level three-dimensional depth, definition and realism. Similarly audio is more coherent, with a greater presence and a more three dimensional space.

The operating conditions of video and audio are much improved when they can work in quiet surroundings. A painstaking approach is used to achieve the quietest electrical environment inside the player by combining different materials and techniques to remove a specific range of RFI/EMI noise up to several GHz.

Conventional types of damping have been discarded in preference for more advanced methods which merge several types of material with optimum mass, impedance and geometry.
