Any recommendations for CD and BR/HDDVD players to augment the following equipment? I keep coming back to the Oppo 980 for CD’s since I have a processor that is capable of processing the new HD audio formats.

Current Equipment -
Processor: Onkyo Pro PR-SC885
Amp: ATI 1807 (180 x 7)
Speakers: AVS Rocket 850/450/300/200
Display: Sony 70” XBR2
Subwoofer: Elemental Designs 18” sealed, 1300w

All said, I am getting REALLY confused with these new HD audio formats. The Oppo 980 seems to have the ability to pass the HD audio to the Onkyo Processor…and that would mean purchasing a separate BR/HDDVD also. Or, if I went with the Oppo 981 – the audio DACs wouldn’t be as good, but the video to the 70” Sony would be better????

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,
Steve
