Lexicon BD-30 Blu-ray Player (Oppo BDP-83 Clone) Review — Reviews and News from Audioholics

It's an Oppo BDP-83. Normally we'd launch into a statement like this with more tact. We may, for example, wax eloquent about the Lexicon BD-30's beautiful chassis or it's billet aluminum front face. We could tell you about the heft of the unit, or the fact that comes double boxed with enough padding to warrant throwing it off the FedEx or UPS truck while it's still moving. While all of that is true, the Lexicon BD-30 is still an Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray Player. And what's more, it's not just using the same parts - they actually stuck the player inside - chassis and all. This would be OK, were it not for the $3000 premium and THX certification. As Sherlock Holmes would say: The game is afoot!

Steve read the posts again, they are bashing it as of now!

Some are seeing this lexicon for what it is but I am still reading a lot of support for lexicon. It was funny, amir wanted gene to retest the analog connectons and in doing so he found that the lexicon had a huge problem with bass management.

No replies? It the highend just going to try and ignore this?

[Steve Bruzonsky]

Guess so but now that the mainstream tech sites have picked this up it is not going to go away.

Still nothing from lexicon, I wonder if this player put the entire company at risk of going under?
