My OPPO players are all made in China, and over the last four years I've had five different players that have all been very reliable. It's not something that inherently carries a sense of "oh, yeah!" but it also doesn't necessarily signal bad things. The key is making sure the specific facility is well-run. AV123 had a series of really dreadful problems last year with Chinese-made electronics that were due at least in part to a lack of factory supervision.
