OPPO DV-970HD Universal Player Named in Bargain System of the Year

MOUNTAIN VIEW, California -- December 12, 2006 -- OPPO Digital, Inc. (www.oppodigital.com), an award winning consumer electronics manufacturer, was honored by The Perfect Vision magazine. OPPO's DV-970HD up-converting universal player was named as source component for the magazine's 2006 Bargain System of the Year, as described in TPV's January 2007 Product of the Year issue. Standing out among a sea of competition, the award-winning DV-970HD is available from OPPO Digital and OPPO authorized resellers for $149.00.

The Perfect Vision Product of the Year List recognizes the best of the best products in every product category based on the voting and recommendations of editors.

The DV-970HD delivers sound and video quality that rivals many higher-priced players. Its up-converted high definition output produces a stunning picture and an unmatched entertainment experience. When listening to your favorite CD this player effortlessly reveals details in excellent transparency, down to the variations in production techniques. The total-package is completed with excellent design, style, and build quality, including gold-plated connectors and a 6-foot HDMI cable, all for a very modest price.

"OPPO Digital is slowly but surely earning a reputation for building products that, in car enthusiasts' parlance, are sleepers: that is, components that appear to be modest in price and appearance, but in fact turn out to be giant killers," mentioned Chris Martens, audio editor for The Perfect Vision and senior writer for The Absolute Sound. "What really makes OPPO (DV-970HD) special, though, is its core sound and video image quality, which are unexpectedly good – not just 'for the money' but in a broader sense." *

"Earlier in the year we were honored to earn an Editor's Choice award, and now to be named as one of the Products of the Year, we are speechless," said Jason Liao, vice-president of product development at OPPO Digital. "The Perfect Vision's readers are discerning audio/video enthusiasts. The DV-970HD was created specifically for them. It combines high performance, value and versatility for those who want to enliven any standard DVD for a brilliant, crisp and exciting HD video experience."

This award is the latest in an overwhelming show of support and acceptance by the home theater community. Among its recent accolades, OPPO has been honored with Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity's Best of 2005 and About.com's Top Pick in Standard and Upscaling DVD Players.

The DV-970HD is designed to bring out the best of users' DVD collection on high definition TV. Thanks to its core video performance and high definition up-conversion feature, picture quality from DVD rivals true HD content. As video is only part of the equation, the DV-970HD excels with high resolution audio formats including DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD (SACD) and HDCD. Able to play virtually any disc, the DV-970HD is one of the most versatile players on the market and supports DVD+/-RW, CD-R/RW as well as DivX, Xvid, Audio CD, Kodak Picture CD, WMA and other digital audio and video media formats. An integrated 4-in-1 flash memory card reader and USB port compliments the feature set with easy digital picture viewing and music playback.
