Perhaps I am missing something regarding the 83 versus 83SE, 93, and/or 93SE. Assuming you have a state of the art high end processor--and let's just dream a little and say it is an Outlaw 998--with HDMI inputs and outputs, why do you NEED (or perhaps WANT) an 83SE, 93, and/or 93SE rather than a simple 83?

Note that I have not bought the 83 because I have not wanted--out of laziness more than anything--to pass the 83 sound signal via multi-channel audio to my current Outlaw 990. Although I plan to buy the 83 (possibly on the secondary market as newer OPPOs come to market) once I can use an HDMI cable to pass the sound signal (hopefully to my Outlaw 998), I am wondering if there is any appreciable benefit to purchasing the 83SE, 93, or possibly 93SE instead.

All comments are welcome.
