They are decent - they are not phenomenal. They have a very good reputation and they do what they are supposed to do a fair bit better than other upconverting players on the market for a fair bit less.

On the other hand, Panasonic makes some very good upconverting players for similar money - which I would recommend for quality of build over the Oppo.

Even better, for the money, you can pick up the A2 for about the exact same money and have a HD DVD player which is being sold near cost (give or take) which does a very good job of upconverting as well... It is simply a very good value to the consumer.

Likewise, the PS3 is well regarded for its upconversion capabilities.
